Using the default generated code to register the settings page does not allow access for any non-admin roles. Wrapping the default generated code in a current_user_can() function does not work either to give access to non-admins. Is there a way to give non-admin roles access to the settings page?
Thanks

Hello Tom,
Can you please share your code here so we can take a look.
Thanks
For example, the default generated will show up for admins but not for non-admins.
add_filter( 'mb_settings_pages', 'prefix_options_page' ); function prefix_options_page( $settings_pages ) { $settings_pages[] = array( 'id' => 'customize', 'option_name' => 'customize', 'menu_title' => 'customize', 'icon_url' => 'dashicons-admin-generic', 'style' => 'boxes', 'columns' => 1, 'position' => 168, ); return $settings_pages; }I tried wrapping it like so, but still a no-show for non-admins:
add_filter( 'mb_settings_pages', 'prefix_options_page' ); function prefix_options_page( $settings_pages ) { $settings_pages[] = array( 'id' => 'customize', 'option_name' => 'customize', 'menu_title' => 'customize', 'icon_url' => 'dashicons-admin-generic', 'style' => 'boxes', 'columns' => 1, 'position' => 168, ); if( current_user_can('editor') || current_user_can('administrator') ) { return $settings_pages; } }Disregard the => formatting, of course.
Hello Tom,
Try adding
‘capability’ => ‘edit_others_pages’,in the array. You can define the users via the capability.
Let me know if it works.
It works, thank you!
