Custom User Role and CPT

Sorry – my bad. My dev setup uses URE also and I had added page capabilities to the Contributor role. This made everything work because you have this in your CPT definition:

'capability_type' => 'page',

If you remove that it defaults to post and then by default things work fine. Otherwise add edit_pages and delete_pages caps to your contributor role.

if i add edit_page to my custom role, it works with pages, but not my cpt.

i am not using the contributor role, it is a custom role called franchisee.

Then show me how your role is configured. I need all the infoz dude.

yeah i dont know how to export the role, with User Role Editor. i can take some screen shots i guess.

hope that helps.

I’m using the code you provided to create the Locations CPT, I’m using URE and created a new role, but I’m not seeing the same capability options for the Location CPT as you. This is what I see.

What other code do you have that I’m not seeing?

for that post type, nothing. i barely even have any plugins installed.

i am going to try deleting the user role, and recreating it. maybe it will work.

The Addon is meant for Contributors (it’s called Contributors Can, not Franchisees Can). I haven’t tested with custom roles. You can also try this, but I can’t guarantee it’ll work.

add_filter('revisionize_user_can_revisionize', function($can) {
  return $can || current_user_can('edit_locations');
}, 20, 1);

add_filter('revisionize_is_create_enabled', function($can, $post) {
  return $can || ($post->post_status == 'publish' && !\Revisionize\get_revision_of($post) && $post->post_type == 'locations' && current_user_can('edit_locations'));
}, 20, 2);

add_filter('revisionize_user_can_publish_revision', function($can) {
  return $can || current_user_can('publish_locations');
}, 20, 1);

Who are you logged in as? A franchisee?

If so, You need to “revisionize” first. Then on the revision you can submit for review.

is there a way to do so you dont have to “revisionize” first, or just hide the update button, the users arent the brightest bulb in the box and wont hit that button.

when i go to a page i can edit without hitting “revisionize” first

nevermind i must have hit it and not remebered, is there a way to add the revisionize text next to the view on the on there? so i can turn off edit_published_locations

ok i got it, i used your filters you provided, but i noticed you had locations as the post type, its singular, location. changed that and it works perfectly now.

Thanks so much for all the help I truly appreciate it. Im going to 5 star review this.
