Hi Jim,

I don’t think this functionality is controlled by User Role Editor. Is it possible for you to ask the developer of Advanced Custom Fields, which capability is required to display those custom fields in user profile?

Thanks

Not at this moment. That functionality is in my to do list.

Hi Mitch,

Can you try bulk activating with excluding one plugin at a time? So we might be able to find the conflicting plugin.

Thanks

Syam

Hi Betsy,

I missed your email. I’ll test with the free version and let you know.

Thanks

Hi Mitch,

What does the below statement mean?

“All of the options available to choose from in the xprofile field would already also be established as Role options in WPFront role permissions”

Thanks

Syam

Hi Mitch,

Here is the challenge with that solution. Extended permissions work by adding conditions to database queries issued by WordPress, so that the post/page which the user doesn’t have permission to will be excluded from the result. Basically WordPress will act such a way that the post/page doesn’t exist within the site, hence the 404.

The solution you are asking is possible by allowing WordPress to fetch the page, but redirect or replace the content when user access the page. The replace content functionality is already there in this plugin and is called Content Shortcodes.

For your purpose I recommend using Content Shortcodes, so that paid members will see the actual content, non-paid members will see a message and guest users will see a login form.

[paid-member-role]
Post/Page content
[/paid-member-role]

[non-paid-member-role]
[logged-in-user]
Available only for paid members
[/logged-in-user]

[guest-users]
[login-form]
[/guest-users]
[/non-paid-member-role]

Thanks

A plugin cannot activate itself. When you activate in network admin, its suppose to be active in all child sites and the child site cannot deactivate it. This could be conflict again as you mentioned in a different topic.

Based on my understanding from what you said, that is normal behavior. When you create a new site, you will only have the default roles, not all the roles you created from network admin. You can sync the roles using Sync functionality.

Thanks
