I “safely” reverted the permissions before deactivating this plugin, as advised, but the permissions were NOT reverted. THIS PLUGIN WILL BREAK YOUR SITE. This topic was modified 5 months, 3 weeks ago by mikenco.

If a user has shop manager rights, I use ure to copy the role to a new role name, the user with the new role does not have the same rights as shop manager. Moving the user back to shop manager restores their rights ?

The plugin need an update because showing last updated four months agao. WordPess has had a few updates since then. How ever it is hiding the superadmin account on a multisite but not on a normal site the main administrator account is still visiable. everything else is working normally. Needs a few more items adding to it so when you install another plugin the options will show for that to restrict. Could do with option to hid the option to change the password and email so when you have a demo website to prevent others from changing the email. I use another plugin that allows me to all of those things but none have the hide administrator accounts like this one. This topic was modified 3 months, 2 weeks ago by AMG.
