    Hey,

    Is it possible to show and hide menu items based on roles?

    I have two menu items with drop downs.

    Item 1
    – Sub 1
    – Sub 2
    – Sub 3

    Item 2
    – Sub 1
    – Sub 2
    – Sub 3

    These two are showing when logged out.

    There are two Roles for the site “editor” and “member”

    When Editors are logged in I want Item 2 and its sub menus to be hidden & only Item 1 and subs to be shown.

    When Members are logged in I want Item 1 and subs to be hidden and Item 2 & subs to be shown.

    Is this possible?

    That’s the only thing NMR does.

    An issue you may run into is that Members and Editors may not be mutually exclusive as WordPress roles and capabilities are different things. I’m testing for whether a user has a certain role via current_user_can() but roles kind of stack progressively such that admin>editor>author>subscriber and each role has the capabilities of the role “beneath” it. So it might be that Editor can see what members can see, though Members would not be able to see what editors can see. (assuming editors are more powerful than members).
