Show only custom elements to editors.

Hey ThorstenFB,

Thank you for the inquiry.

There is no option for this out of the box. You only can lock the builder elements for non-admins by enabling the Lock Advanced Layout Builder option in the Enfold > Layout Builder panel, but this will also affect the custom elements.

Best regards,

Hi Thorsten,

What you are asking for would be considered out of scope of theme support unfortunately, but we’ll consider adding such a function to a future release of the theme.

Hi,

Thank you for your patience

Your only option for now is to use the avf_allow_drag_drop filter to adjust which user roles can interact with the builder elements. However, it’s still not possible to restrict access only for CET. Usage examples can be found in the following threads

Hi,

But is it possible with hooks and filters to hide the whole element-tabs in ALB but let authors

That might be possible. Please add this code in the functions.php file:

add_filter( 'admin_body_class', function( $classes ) {
    $user = wp_get_current_user();
    $roles = $user->roles;
    $roles_string = implode( ' ', $roles );
    return $classes . ' ' . $roles_string;
}, 10, 1);

Then add this hook to hide the ALB element buttons for specific user roles.

add_action( 'admin_head', 'ava_custom_admin_css' );

function ava_custom_admin_css()
{
    if ( current_user_can( 'administrator' ) ) {
        ?>
        <style>
            .administrator .avia-builder-main-wrap .shortcode_button_wrap {
                display: none;
            }
        </style>
        <?php
    }
}

The hook above will hide the buttons for administrators. If you want to hide it for authors or editors, you have to adjust the css rule a bit.

.author .avia-builder-main-wrap .shortcode_button_wrap, .editor .avia-builder-main-wrap .shortcode_button_wrap  {
                display: none;
            }
