Hi,
I would like to find a way to give access to the Editor to tagDiv Composer.
If possible, I would like to give him access to some blocks. If not possible, to the whole composer.
Can you, please, help me with that?
Thank you in advance
Isnt there an admin setting for that in visual composer settings?
Hi Chris,
I use tagDiv Composer, not Visual Composer.
Hi,
There are no options at the moment that would allow something like this. Only admin level users have access to the tagDiv composer page editor. However I believe editor roles should have the capability to edit pages with the composer, since to edit pages is a default editor ability.
I will add this on our list, and pass it along to the developer team. If you would like to make the modification and use it in the meantime, you will have to edit the composer files.
Edit this file from the tdcomposer plugin and change the user capability so an editor will have access to the editor

The option to use the composer will be displayed

This will enable editor roles and above to use the tagDiv composer, and it is according to the default WordPress user roles and capabilities

Hi Simion,
Thank you for your immediate reply.
I did the customization you proposed to tdc_main.php
Here is a screenshot of the file: http://marketpost.gr/docs/tdc_main.png
Indeed, when I log in as an editor and go to home page, I see the tagDiv Composer link.
However, when I click, it seems like it loads and then I get a white screen. No composer loaded.
You can see that in this short video: http://marketpost.gr/docs/editor-td-composer.mp4
My client really pushes me on this and i would appreciate it if you could give a hand and make it work.
Thank you in advance.
I just realized that the same problem (white screen, no composer) happens while I am logged in as Administrator too.
I have to change again the tdc_main.php to its initial state.
Problem with administrator solved after uploading the original tdc_main.php file.
Hi,
If you still have the white page issue, please check the theme system status and see if these server and WordPress parameters are set according to the guide
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Insufficient PHP memory and the other parameters have a decisive role in the functionality of the theme and plugins.
Furthermore you can try to deactivate all plugins installed except theme plugins, to see if this is caused by a plugin.
Let us know if there is still a problem after checking and trying these suggestions.
Thanks
Hi Simion,
Thank you very much for you immediate response but, I think there is a misunderstanding here.
The tagDiv Composer was working fine for the administrator before the changes I made to the tdc_main.php.
I asked a way to give access to the editor to use the tagDiv Composer.
You recommended me a code change to tdc_main.php file which I made and, after that, neither the administrator nor the editor had access to the Composer.
To solve this, I uploaded the original file (tdc_main.php), meaning that the changes you recommended were gone, and everything got back to normal.
THE ADMINISTRATOR CAN HAVE ACCESS TO TAGDIV COMPOSER.
So there is no problem with my PHP, my hosting etc
My question remains the same: is there a way for a user with “editor” role to have access to tagDiv Composer?
If not, no problem. Just let me know so I can give a clear answer to my client.
Thank you in advance.
Hi,
Then it would be best to leave it as it is at the moment and do not make any modifications, until this is modified by our developer team, and properly tested. Hopefully as soon as the next theme update. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
Thanks
OK, Simion. I will do as you say.
Thank you for your efforts and your time.
