Hi, yes, I’m aware of this issue, and will look into this in the future.
Hi. How much into the future we are talking about? I need to know if I will be able to use this plugin for my project, or I need to find a new one.
Well its not a high priority on the list of amends on the Slide Anything TO-DO list. So possibly look elsewhere for now to meet this requirement.
I found the problem actually. Line 1629 in php/slide-anything-admin.php:
// ### VERIFY 1) LOGGED-IN USER IS ADMINISTRATOR AND 2) VALID NONCE TO PREVENT CSRF HACKER ATTACKS ###
if (current_user_can('manage_options') &&
We could change manage_options to edit_pages for example, so editors also have access. But I don’t know if this is a bug, or you want only admins to have access.
Hi, please try it out – change it to “edit_pages” and let me know how it goes. I will then create a quick release of SA with the change.
I do remember adding that code now – I got it from an article on ‘plugin security and nonces’. Its purely a security measure. I think “editors’ should be able to edit SA slider options, so this is a change I would like to implement. Thank you.
Yes, I tried it before I posted my previous reply. I was able to move slides and delete them with an editor (and changing everything else should work too, I haven’t tried all settings of course).
Thank you too.
Actually, wait a little before releasing a new version, there is one other weird thing, we might fix it too and put it in the release, I will try to find it now.
OK, here is the other problem: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/the-plugin-breaks-the-locked-content-wordpress-message/
Please fix both, thanks!
EDIT: Argg.. They held my post for moderation after my last edit. Who approves those? I hope it is you.
I don’t know if you can read my new post held for moderation, so here is a screenshot of it: https://res.cloudinary.com/djywkn92o/image/upload/v1507206043/sa-post_kn9kub.png
Yes, I will try look at this tonight after work, and test the change with Envira Gallery to see whether there is any impact. Thanks.
