Visual Composer’s General Settings allow you to restrict access to various user groups.

But the individual posts still have access to Post Settings which I assume is part of the Newspaper Theme.

Is there a way to limit the Post Settings by user role or to make only one available?

I’m actually using a standard format for all my posts so if I could hide the Post Settings entirely that would work as well.

Thanks!

Hi,

The “Post Settings” option is available for all users that can edit posts. If you don’t want this you can add a condition to make it available only for admin role(or other), please check user capabilities – https://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities and use this function – https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/current_user_can
So you could add a condition like this – http://screencast.com/t/CCqZFHWLF

Thanks!
