Title: Posts admin menu removed Last modified: November 5, 2022 --- # Posts admin menu removed * Resolved [omahoung](https://wordpress.org/support/users/omahoung/) * (@omahoung) * [3 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/posts-admin-menu-removed/) * Hello, * I need to assign to a user the roles “Instructor” + “Editor”. For this I use the plugin “Members”. When the user have these 2 roles, in his back-end menu the “Posts” item disappears. He still has the edit post capability because he can access to the post page (direct access to /wp-admin/edit.php). Just the menu item disappears. When I remove the “Instructor” role, then the “Posts” menu item appears again. * I first thought this may come from the Members plugin but according to the author it doesn’t. * When I search for the code `remove_menu_page` in all the plugins it appears only inside LifterLMS, file `\lifterlms\includes\admin\class.llms.admin.menus.php` line 299. * How to fix this? * Thank you!

With this plugin I have assigned 2 roles to a specific user: Instructor + Editor. As this instructor is also an Editor he should see the “Posts” item in the admin menu. * I can’t edit the LifterLMS Instructor role to add some Capabilities because only 1 instructor needs the additional capabilities. * [Natalie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nrherron/) * (@nrherron) * [3 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/posts-admin-menu-removed/#post-16187272) * Hi [@omahoung](https://wordpress.org/support/users/omahoung/) * Thank you for clarifying! * Does the role editor you’re using allow you to create new roles based on existing roles? * If so, the best solution then would be to create a new role for the one user that gives them the needed customized permissions to access the posts as well as all the Instructor capabilities. * If this “Members” plugin does not allow that we are happy to make a recommendation! Just let us know. * Let us know if you have any further questions! * All the best, * Thread Starter [omahoung](https://wordpress.org/support/users/omahoung/) * (@omahoung) * [3 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/posts-admin-menu-removed/#post-16205366) * Oh yes, I didn’t think about that, I can try, even if I would prefer that an Instructor could have multiple roles assigned. I actually wrote some code to add the menu item in case it doesn’t show, it works fine, so maybe I will keep this code and I will not have to create an additional role. Thanks for the suggestion. * [Natalie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nrherron/) * (@nrherron) * [3 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/posts-admin-menu-removed/#post-16213013) * Hi there! * Awesome! We will go ahead and mark this thread resolved! * If you do end up having any further questions please don’t hesitate to reply and we will reopen the thread then! * Have a great weekend!
