I have the most recent update of Role Scoper installed on the website I am working on. I use role scoper to give user specific editing rights for certain pages and restrict access to certain post categories. Pages and posts are the only type for which I need Role Scoper's functionality. I also have several custom post types, most of which have a custom taxonomy associated with them. What I need is for users with the Wordpress Editor role to have full access to add/edit/delete both the custom-type posts as well as the custom taxonomy terms, just as they can without Role Scoper.

However, when I set Role Scoper's Realm settings to exclude the custom types, taxonomies, terms, and objects, the editor could edit terms, but not posts. I tried adding custom post types to the Realm and assigning editor role for each type to the [WP-Editor] group. The editors could then edit the posts, but they could still not assign terms to the posts. So I tried adding the custom taxonomies to the realm and assignimg taxonomy manager role to [WP-Editor] for each taxonomy type. The editors were then able to assign the taxonomies to posts, but they then lost the ability to edit terms. Oddly they can still add or delete them, but they can't edit existing ones. The editor would really like to have the ability to edit these.

I am wondering if this is a result of a bug, or if there is a way to achieve the desired functionality. Any help on this is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I probably won't be able to look into this for a couple weeks, but you might make it work by setting your assign_terms capability back to edit_posts.
