Enable editor level access?
-
Hi there,
How can I enable access to for Editor level users to this plugin settings page please?
And might be an idea to add this in the settings if it’s not too difficult, very useful when you want to allow client users to edit SEO but not access all website settings.
Thanks.

Hi Dave,
You can do that by defining
THE_SEO_FRAMEWORK_SETTINGS_CAPbefore TSF launches. You can do this atwp-config.php, or via a mu-plugin.For example, for Editor (if that role’s capability is not altered):
define( 'THE_SEO_FRAMEWORK_SETTINGS_CAP', 'edit_pages' );For roles and capabilities, see this article about… well, roles and capabilities.
We’re not going to add this as a UI-editable option for a multitude of reasons, among security, support and maintenance burden, unwelcome for some webmasters, etc.
Hi Dave,
Yes, mu-plugins are essentially plugins, but they load before regular plugins and cannot be disabled. Most of WordPress is loaded before mu-plugins are, and so they can read blog IDs, prepare filters and actions, etc.
The main mu-plugin file looks much like a plugin file, such as https://plugins.trac.ww.wp.xz.cn/browser/hello-dolly/trunk/hello.php.
In the case of
hello.php, that’d then be located at../wp-content/mu-plugins/hello.php. You’ll have to create the/mu-plugins/folder if it doesn’t exist yet.The key here is that the settings-capability constant must be defined before The SEO Framework loads; it is why I recommended using a mu-plugin or
wp-config.php.
