Insufficient Privledges

  • I installed the plugin and activated and regardless of how I login (admin, subscriber, any role), I’m told when I try to access the tool that I have insufficient privileges. I’ve tried deactivating and reactivating the plugin, as well as creating a new admin user to test it and no luck. Any ideas as I’d really like to use the plugin.

    Thanks for the information.
    There are 2-3 cases similar to yours reported during 1 month from those thousands of downloads. I’m very interested to investigate this issue and fix it. Can you repeat the problem on the fresh test WordPress install? May be with the same theme and all your plugins active, but without critical users data and content.
    In this case send to support [at-sign] role-editor.com a full copy of WordPress folder and database. I will setup it locally and try to repeat the issue.

    I have the same problem as rhythmdoctor and I would like to use this plugin as well. I’m on the latest version of wordpress

    Try this:
    Open includes/class-user-role-editor.php, go to the line #842. You will find function edit_roles() there. Replace it with this version:

    // call roles editor page
    public function edit_roles() {
        if (!current_user_can($this->key_capability)) {
            die(esc_html__('Insufficient permissions to work with User Role Editor', 'ure'));
        }

        $this->lib->editor();
    }
    // end of edit_roles()
