Dashboard widget for non-admin users

    Hello,

    As an administrator of websites for witch my clients only have the editor role, I can’t figure out how to display the site kit widget on their dashboard.

    The editor role has been added to the plugin permissions via the dashboard sharing options and these users also have the following rights:

    googlesitekit_view_dashboard
googlesitekit_view_wp_dashboard_widget
googlesitekit_view_module_details
googlesitekit_view_posts_insights
googlesitekit_view_shared_dashboard
googlesitekit_view_authenticated_dashboard

    Users can access statistics from the side menu and the widget is not listed in the WP dashboard screen options either.

    Is there a way to display this widget for these non-admin users?

    Thanks for your help

    Hello @rumores thanks for getting in touch with your question and detailed explanation. At this time, the Site Kit widget for the WordPress Dashboard is for admin users only. The Dashboard Sharing options do not include the widget.

    I will put forward your suggestion to the team to see if this is something we can do at some stage in the future. Is there anything else I can help you with?

    Thanks Adam for your support, I probably missed this in the doc.

    Thank you also for bringing up this suggestion, this feature could indeed be quite useful in some cases.
