User permissions help

    Hello,

    I have a Custom Taxonomy set-up and working very nicely thanks to this plugin, however I need to make it so Editors can edit the Taxonomy options. They appear to be able to Add options to the Taxonomy list and view the Admin Panel link but when they click it they get the WP error message:
    You do not have sufficient permissions to access this admin page.

    If someone could let me know which permission needs to be approved in order for them to edit Taxonomies, that would be incredibly useful. An hour of trial and error has so far resulted in just wasted time!

    Any help greatly appreciated!
    Thanks ??

    So just to make sure I’m clear on this workflow your editors have, GnorthernGnome, they’re able to add terms to the taxonomy when they’re writing a post, but when they go to say Posts > My Taxonomy, where you’d see the terms list along the right, and fields to create new terms on the left, they are getting the permissions error?

    Yes, that is exactly the problem I’m having. So they can successfully create new taxonomy terms but cannot edit/delete them, which is not great. Any ideas?

    Discovered what the problem was, not an issue with CPT-UI or user permissions but with the Menu Editor plugin I also have installed. Another Admin had “hidden” another instance of the Taxonomy link in the Admin Panel sidebar by changing the user role permissions, which was affecting all the links.

    Thank you for your very prompt response, fantastic plugin! Apologies for the confusion :S

    Cheers!
