I am a website admin.
I have now granted a person Author privileges to contribute to content on the website. They will be able to create content in new Posts and Pages under their name. As the admin, I will have edit access to what they create.
We have a number of Pages already on the site and I would prefer that they didn’t have edit access to those existing Pages however they will be able to create and edit new Pages and Posts.
Is there a way to stop them being able to edit Pages and Posts that I have already created and will continue to create?
Hey John,
There’s nothing like that in the theme by default unfortunately, but there might be plugins or third party code which could implement such functionality for you.
Best regards,
RikardThat is normal behaviour of WordPress Users.
Authors only are able to edit own posts (no pages). Editors can edit all Posts and Pages.
and as an admin – well – of course everythingAn Author logged in see:
Only on “mine” Posts on hovering there is an edit Button.
If you show all Posts – you can not see any edit Button at all on Posts from different Users.Comments etc. are only listed – and can not be edited (except on own Posts) etc.
Have you installed a Plugin on influencing User Roles? I can not believe that Authors are able to see pages.
Thanks Guenni. I haven’t installed a User Role plugin yet.
I would like my new website assistant to be able to create and manage their own Posts and Pages only.
