    To get the theme menu to show I did the following:

    Making a custom capability, changing in the backend.php “manage_options” into your newly created capability, and then adding that capability to the desired roles.

    But now I get error messages on the editor role, but not on the admin side.

    UNDEFINED TYPE custom_slides

    And when I try to change something from the editor role it doesn’t feed the changes on the front end, it bugs out. Also what I noticed was that the the theme’s menu directs to /wp-admin/admin.php?page=###. Could that be the reason why an editor can’t feed changes?

    Also found this in themename.backend.php:

    	function smt_load_menu() {
		
		global $smt_default_options;
		
		$theme = wp_get_theme( );
		add_menu_page( 'Theme', $theme['Name'], 'manage_options', 'smt_settings', 'smt_settings_handle', '', 64 );
		foreach( $smt_default_options as $name => $section ) {
			
			$s=add_submenu_page( 'smt_settings', $section['name'], $section['name'], 'manage_options', 'smt_'.$name, 'smt_settings_handle' );
			add_action( 'admin_print_scripts-'.$s, 'smt_admin_scripts' ); // 
			
		}
		remove_submenu_page( 'smt_settings', 'smt_settings' );
		
	}

    The 2 are the only mentions of the “manage_options” capability in the whole theme.

    My end result:

    function login_bar ( $atts, $contents) {
   ob_start();
 echo '<div class="message"><div class="welcome">';
   if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
        $current_user = wp_get_current_user();
    echo 'Welcome, ' , esc_html( $current_user->display_name );
} else {
    echo 'Welcome, visitor!';
}
echo '</div><div class="action">';
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
        $current_user = wp_get_current_user();
        echo '<a href="link">Logout »</a> <a href="/messageboard/profile/">Change Profile »</a>' ;
     } else {
       echo '<a href="link">Login »</a>';
     }
echo '</div></div>';
return ob_get_clean();
}
add_shortcode( 'loginbar', 'login_bar' );

    Thanks for the help! Works great!

    Thanks for your reply, but I’m having trouble understanding what it is I need to do. I’m not familiar with PHP, that link doesn’t make a lot of sense to me.
