Lock up Footer and Header

Posted in: Newspaper

Hi, is there a way that we can lock the global header and block certain users from editing the footer?
We have many problems with especially new users to understand, that they can edit the footer from every page.
Problems occur especially here:
Header:
– New users have problems understanding that if you use an individual header on a page, that if you select it in the checkbox it will be made “global”
– New users have problems understanding that they don’t have to select “import-Header” to select this header.

Footer:
– it is very confusing, that we can not edit the footer in the cloud templates once it is created. We would love a possibility to edit the header ONLY in the cloud template – therefore it will be more secure for accidents happening on sub-pages. Is there any way to block the footer from being edited?

Thanks for your response.

Hello!

Unfortunately, we do not have this option in our theme or a tested plugin in order to achieve this. We recommend to make a full backup from time to time, so you won’t lose anything.
Another solution could be to change the roles and capabilities of your users: https://wordpress.org/support/article/roles-and-capabilities/

Thank you!
