yes, you need to make them an spf admin (not wp) with limited capabalities… go to forum – admin – manage admins and add this user in as an admin and give them the manage forums capability only… this way, they wont get access to any of the wp admin pages and will only get access to the manage groups and forums spf admin page and not other spf admin pages…

Thanks, it worked on my localhost. But on hosted site, “Manage Admins” page is not loading. It shpws the ajax loader. But then content area turns blank. Same is issue is there for “Member Information” link. But this page loads when I access from wordpress menu itself. Could you assist helping me on this ?

Thanks, 

Keep the nice work up.

The obvious question has to be what is the difference between the local and public server setup? These sorts of problems most usualy come down to another plugin loading javascript when they shouldn't or even loading bad javascript.

yeah.. I had this problem in 4.2.0/4.2.1, right? but it was fixed in 4.2.2.. 

simple-press.com/support-forum/simplepress-version-4-2/your-admin-options-for-semi-spf-admins/

is it the same problem?  should see an access denied link is so…

rahnas, which version of SPF are you using?

Hi All, Sorry for delayed come back. I was on something else these days.

I am using Version 4.2.0. 

I don't think its a problem with JS. Because When I logged using console, it is showing that both 3 links in admin options are sending ajax request. But Manage Admin is getting only blank response.

I will try 4.2.2 . But there is no automatic updates available. Looking to it.

Any ways, thanks for everyone's support 

please let us know…

Wow! I found a weired fix!

I just digged in to code and 

Changed Line #49 of simple-forum/admin/panel-admins/sfa-admins-display.php

from this :

require_once (dirname(__FILE__).’/../../../../../wp-admin/includes/admin.php’);

to this :

require_once (‘/problem-with-post-edit-buttonome/tzhxblkq/public_html/listen/wp-admin/includes/admin.php’);

Now, moderator can create groups and forum. But when he tries to click on “Forum” in the wordpress main menu, “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.” message comes, But submenus are accessible

Any ways, my hungry is over 🙂 thanks for helping guys

i think this sounds exactly like the problem I had. Have you tried changing and saving options? This was not resolved until 4.2.2 (or by implementing the solution given by Mr Papa in the forum post mentioned earlier in this thread). I think you should really consider updating..

I agree but having said that the path there is horrible. I have opened a ticket to get that cleaned up

Hmm. the project is delivered 🙂

I will be using latest version in next project onwards

Keep updating guys

That's what we do…!

and the messy path is improved in 4.3 too!
