    I just installed v6.0 and am testing the shortcode out for custom roles. They work, but I as administrator am unable to view the content restricted to each identified custom role unless I go into dashboard All Posts.

    I attempted to experiment missing the shortcode parameters between rol and custom role to try to assign role=administrator alongside the custom-role parameter but wither it doesn’t work or I’m doing it wrong.

    Any help is appreciated!

    Hello @songiuno

    Currently administrators cannot read content restricted to a custom role, as explained in the Wiki page of this plugin.

    Anyway, I think that you’re right. Administrators should be able to read notes dedicated to custom roles, so I will take a look if I could add this modification, according to the style of other roles, for example:

    role="custom" => Users of custom roles and Administrators will read;
    role="custom-only" => Only users of custom roles will read (excluding others, Administrators included).

    I will let you know. ??

    That would be great if you could/would, thank you. It would be beneficial in administering the site to be able to preview/view posts restricted to the assigned custom and maybe even built-in roles outside of the site admin posts.

    Hi @songiuno,
    I added the new feature that lets Administrators read the text, unless a role="custom-only" option has been used. You will receive the update in your Dashboard in the next upcoming days, after I finished my checks.

    Also, you will find a new feature that lets you use multiple custom roles, as requested here by another user.

    I just released the new version 6.1.

    After you have updated to this new version, please let me know if all is working as expected.

    Thanks!
