Thank you developer! its free and works as expected
Simply don’t work, sadly
Why?
Because it doesn’t work ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You can easily check this:
– create a new role with the User Role Editor plugin
– assign the new role to a user
– use this plugin to disable, for instance, the Plugin screens
– open an incognito window, and log in with the previously updated user’s credentials
– go to the plugin screen by using it’s url instead of the hidden menu item – sheesh, no access restriction.
A role restriction plugin that doesn’t really restrict the access doesn’t make sense, and it’s extremely dangerous if a plugin user and site owner is not careful enough, and thorough with the testing.
Como lo describe quita de la vista los menús que no queremos que vean ciertos roles, para mi es suficiente o lo que buscaba.
If you add this function maybe consider a better rating
