    Hi there,

    First off, happy new year, I hope it’s been a good one ??

    I’m looking to limit the ordering functionality to administrators only on a site I’m working on. I’ve tried removing the hooks wp_ajax_simple_page_ordering and wp_ajax_reset_simple_page_ordering for editor users, but it’s been ineffective. Any suggestions?

    Cheers,
    RS

    Hey Happy New Year!

    You can use the simple_page_ordering_is_sortable filter this way:

    /**
 * Limits the ability to sort pages to users with the administrator role.
 *
 * @param bool $sortable Whether or not the pages are sortable.
 */
function spo_limit_sorting_by_role( $sortable ) {
    return current_user_can( 'administrator' );
}
add_filter( 'simple_page_ordering_is_sortable', 'spo_limit_sorting_by_role' );
