Hi,
We have a number of contributors to the website and I’m trying to work out how to give them access to Subtitle, Source Name, Source URL, Via Name and Via URL without giving them access to any sidebar position changes, or style changes.
Also what is the point of the sidebar column next to the writing window?
Thanks
Hi,
The post settings will only be available to users that have the capability to publish posts and above
– https://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities
A contributor role cannot publish posts so the settings will not be visible for him. Author roles and above will have access to the settings. If you want to change this condition and give contributors access to the post settings, you will have to modify the condition here, based on a contributor capability

Then all the post settings will be available for contributors, not specific ones. They will still not be able to publish posts but have access to post settings.
Or you could try user role capability plugins, there are such plugins you could install and make tests.
If you mean the sidebar separator here

The purpose of that would be to see exactly how the published post will look when a sidebar is set. It will not be shown if there is no sidebar position selected

Or you could remove it from the code if this is required for you
