    At some point, someone with Editor capabilities could edit the nav menus with the checkbox for Manage Links checked. The box is still checked but the Appearance menu is no longer showing up in the admin area.

    Hi @zmancrow

    Thanks for using PublishPress.

    Sorry, I’m not clear on this question. Could you share a screenshot, perhaps?

    Hi. Sorry. Obviously I wasn’t clear. To rephrase: I have “Manage Links” in PublishPress checked for the Editor user type. However, a person who is assigned the role of Editor can’t see the Menu option in the admin backend. It used to be there but recently it isn’t. The site is on the latest version of WordPress. screen shot 1

    Hi @zmancrow

    That capability doesn’t control access to the menus. It’s an old and retired feature in WordPress: https://publishpress.com/knowledge-base/manage-links/

    Okay. Thanks for that but what am I supposed to use so that someone with Editor role can edit the navigation items? Under type specific capabilities I selected Navigation Menus, checked the boxes but still nothing is showing up for the Editor role.
