“You do not have permission to do this” when editing product attributes

    Hi

    I’ve had this problem for months and through several WooCommerce and WP updates, and now I can’t take it anymore.

    When I go to products>attributes, I can add new attributes. But when I try adding new or changing existing attribute terms, I get the error message “Du har desv?rre ikke tilladelse til at g?re dette.” Which translates to that I don’t have permission to the following. I am admin of the page (and the only person at all), so I do!

    I was advised in a Facebook group to make a ‘webshop leader’ user too, so I did that. Through that user, I could make the changes to attributes in the start, but now that’s not working either, and I’m back to being unable to change my attributes altogether…
    I can’t put my new products up on my website, and that’s a really big problem for me so please help me fix this.

    Hello,

    You’ll first want to do a full conflict test to determine if the issue is coming from a plugin/theme conflict. The best way to do this is to:

    • Temporarily switch your theme to Storefront
    • Disable all plugins except for WooCommerce
    • Test to see if the issue has been resolved

    If you’re not seeing the same problem after completing the conflict test, then you know the problem was with the plugins and/or theme you deactivated. To figure out which plugin is causing the problem, reactivate your other plugins one by one, testing after each, until you find the one causing conflict. You can find a more detailed explanation on how to do a conflict test here.
