Hello,
I am having trouble allowing authors on my site (https://www.androidunfiltered.com) to access the review module at the bottom of articles in the editor.
I can access it as an admin, and users with the Editor role can also access it, but I would like for authors to also be able to access it without giving them editorial capabilities.
Can you assist, please?
Hello,
Sorry but our theme does not provide such in depth customization of the back-end settings for specific users. The theme settings are either all available or none at all for users. If you want to change this implementation, coding skills will be required to create conditions based on the current_user_can function https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/current_user_can
If you do not have coding skills we recommend hiring a freelancer to hep out as we cannot provide any customization services at the moment.
Thank you!
Hi,
I encounter the same problem as him. I am making a game review website, so I want to let my users have the capability to write their own reviews without editors role.
So I got a plugin named User Role Editor https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-role-editor/
to add the review capability to the normal users. However, I can’t find the Review capability on the capability list.
One of my website’s main functions is letting users make their review, so this is really important to me. Before sending this, I tried many plugins for review or rating, but none of them is better than the Newspaper’s default review system.
I wonder if you could give me some advice.
Thanks!

The “Add Capability” part on this page seems to be useful for my problem. I think the Newspaper theme provides the capability of review, but the permission for that is only for editor and administrator.
If my assumption is right, there must be a capability code for review. And then I can add it to the capability list in User Role Editor.
Thanks
Hello,
Our theme does not change the default roles and capabilities of WordPress. You can change a certain function in the theme for a particular user role with this function: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/current_user_can
