RS Fixes for XML-RPC, Admin Menu Links

Friday afternoon, I released Role Scoper 1.0.4 to address the following issues:

  • BugFix : XML-RPC support (ScribeFire, WLW) was broken for non-administrators
  • BugFix : exclude_tree argument was ineffective in get_terms / wp_list_categories call
  • BugFix : Category Restrictions were not inherited upon new category creation
  • BugFix : User groups were unusable on DB servers that do not support default value on text columns
  • BugFix : Page Parent filtering was broken for Quick Edit
  • BugFix : Option "role assignment requires blog-wide editor role" was only requiring blog-wide contributor role
  • BugFix : Option "role assignment requires blog-wide editor role" did not suppress Roles, Restrictions sidebar menu
  • BugFix : In Edit Post form, non-editors could see / select other users as "author"
  • BugFix : invalid Category / Object role edit links displayed in user profile for non-editors in some configurations
  • BugFix : Role Scoper Options inaccessable to administrator with WP 2.8.1
  • Change : Deny implicit comment moderation rights to Authors if they lack moderate_comments cap
  • Change : Moved option "Role administration requires a blog-wide Editor role" to main Options tab

Sadly, in addressing the WP 2.8.1 "explicit permissions" issue for RS Options, I broke all the other Roles and Restrictions menu links for administrators.  This is fixed in Role Scoper 1.0.4.1 My apologies for the inconvenience to those who downloaded 1.0.4.

Hello,

I'm having issues with your 1.0.4.1 version (did have the 1.4 version and updated). It seems like some of my roles are screwed up. When I log in as a Contrb I do not see the "post" box that allows the users to post comments if I have your plugin disabled. IF I re-enable it I get the box back. HELP! Thank you

Nnyan,

Are you referring to a front-end element? If so, what theme are you using? Do you want that "post box" to appear for the Contributor? Are you trying to stop using Role Scoper, or just trying to get it working right?

it seems that users in the contributor role on my site cant see their unassigned media. Anything they add using the "add new" in the wordpress sidebar is invisible to them. any suggestions? they can see assinged media (anything uploaded on the editor pages) just fine.

ken,

I haven't been able to reproduce the problem with Contributors seeing unassigned media. If your user is a Contributor by virtue of RS role assignment, you would need to add the upload_files capability to the Post Contributor role def (Roles > RS Role Defs).

Otherwise, I'd be glad to pursue it further if you can post more details about your configuration in the forum.
