The trick was to remove the Gravity Forms user_has_cap filter, making sure your priority is under 10 (so that it executes before Gravity Forms).<br /> Let me know if you have any issues with it. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/modifying-site-admin-capabilities-with-plugin#post-61638 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 12:42:54 +0000 Alex Cancado 61638@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Ok. I will be glad to take a closer look if you can send me an FTP login as well as WP network admin login to <a href="mailto:alex@rocketgenius.com">alex@rocketgenius.com</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/modifying-site-admin-capabilities-with-plugin#post-61628 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 11:55:06 +0000 UWEX 61628@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Nope - I'd tried mucking with the priority earlier. It doesn't seem to matter when it's called, if being a Site Administrator just overrules any of the specific gravifyforms_ capabilities anyway.</p> <p>Thanks for looking into this - I really appreciate it. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/modifying-site-admin-capabilities-with-plugin#post-61625 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 11:42:10 +0000 Alex Cancado 61625@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Yes, there was a change made that would give site administrators full access by default, so that is the root cause of your problem.</p> <p>I haven't tested this, but I believe if you make sure your user_has_cap hook runs after Gravity Forms' your problem will be solved.<br /> To do that, change line 69:<br /> <pre><code>add_filter(&#39;user_has_cap&#39;, &#39;ces_gravity_forms_modifier_capabilities&#39;, 1, 3);</code></pre> <p>To the following:<br /> <pre><code>add_filter(&#39;user_has_cap&#39;, &#39;ces_gravity_forms_modifier_capabilities&#39;, 11, 3);</code></pre> <p>If that doesn't do the trick, let me know and I will dig deeper. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/modifying-site-admin-capabilities-with-plugin#post-61522 Tue, 05 Jun 2012 16:57:26 +0000 David Peralty 61522@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I've pointed this thread to one of our developers. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/modifying-site-admin-capabilities-with-plugin#post-61521 Tue, 05 Jun 2012 16:54:45 +0000 UWEX 61521@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I did yet some more digging, and discovered what I _think_ is the difference, and I hope you can confirm and offer some help. It looks that in 1.6.4.4.2, being a Site Administrator just automatically gives you access to all this stuff. That is, if I also set the following in my code:</p> <p>$allcaps['administrator'] = false;</p> <p>then my desired functionality is restored. However, that's certainly not something I want to do and I'm afraid of repercussions with other features. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/modifying-site-admin-capabilities-with-plugin#post-61512 Tue, 05 Jun 2012 16:37:20 +0000 UWEX 61512@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hate to bump this, but I've spent a ton of time looking into it myself and am getting nowhere. Is there any extra information I can provide? I confirmed that this code does what I want when used in conjunction with 1.6.2, but does what I describe with 1.6.4.4.2</p> <p>Any ideas or other info I can give or try to help?
