WPBakery frontend editor doesn’t work with shop manager role

[qtwrk555]

Hi,

shop manager role has grant “cms block” in role manager setting , frontend editor is also enabled

in backend editor , it works

however if I switch to frontend , it breaks and gives “you do not have access” error

steps to reproduce:

1) use the shop manager role access link

2) go to HTML block /wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=cms_block

3) edit any existing HTML block in front end mode , you will see it gives this error as my screenshot

I have already contacted WPB support, they say to contact theme support

and yes, I double checked the WPB role setting, shop manager is granted with editor access.

best regards,

Hello,

The Shop manager cannot edit HTML blocks and there is no option to grant these rights. You will need to find a role manager plugin to rewrite the default rights.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact us.

Best Regards

what is the permission it needed ?

and how do you explain it works for backend editor ?

Hello,

The shop manager role has no permission to edit the custom post types like HTML block. For this, you have to use any 3rd party plugin like User ROle Editor plugin to give the permission to the shop manager to edit the HTML block:

yes, I mean what is the permission I need to grant to shop manager ?

Hello,

You have to give the permission to access the backend and edit the HTML blocks.

Best Regards.

Could you please be more specific ?

I granted shop manager with these permissions , but still can not edit it as shop manager role.

alright , I guess if you want to solve a problem , you had to do it yourself

for anyone who may hit same issue , to allow shop manager to edit HTML block , use this code snippet

function modify_html_block_access_role( $role ) {
    if ( current_user_can( 'shop_manager' ) ) {
        return 'shop_manager';
    }
    return $role;
}
add_filter( 'woodmart_html_block_access', 'modify_html_block_access_role' );
