    I have a role manager plugin that I’m using to make custom roles. For some reason, it only lets the administrator role see any user profiles on the front end to edit even though I assign the roles all the same capabilities as an administrator. backend is just fine. Can you help me with this?

    Hello,
    By default UMP allow only admin to update other’s profile. If you need to allow other role then admin, you have to write some code.

    For version 1.1.3rc2 open user-meta/models/umMethods.php

    Replace Line 31-34 with following codes:

    $role = $userMeta->getUserRole( $user_ID );
    $allowedRoles = array( 'administrator', 'put_your_new_role_here' );

    if( in_array( $role, $allowedRoles ) ){
    if( isset($_REQUEST['user_id']) )
    $userID = $_REQUEST['user_id'];
    }

    Present codes for line 31-34:

    if( $isAdmin ){
    if( isset($_REQUEST['user_id']) )
    $userID = $_REQUEST['user_id'];
    }

    Thanks.

    still not working for me. I refreshed and everything. also the lines that had that code were from 66-69 if that helps any. here’s the code i placed:

    $role = $userMeta->getUserRole( $user_ID );
    $allowedRoles = array( 'administrator', 'greg', 'ramon', 'elbin', 'bertha', 'andres', 'joaquin' );

    if( in_array( $role, $allowedRoles ) ){
    if( isset($_REQUEST['user_id']) )
    $userID = $_REQUEST['user_id'];
    }

    They still just see their own information populated in the fields. usernames and all.

    I have a plugin that let’s me make new roles and those are the role names not usernames.

    ok now weird things are happening. i upgraded but now my former login page (still with the same shortcode that worked before) it shows the profile fields, not the login form.

    and if i go to the profile page to see what that shows, it is now showing the login form.

    when i try to login, it leads me to the proper redirect page I assigned before, but that page just says form not found.
