Problem: You are trying to remove WPML Media access for certain users on your dashboard using the PublishPress Capabilities plugin. Despite configuring the roles correctly and having all other WPML plugins up to date, the WPML Media menu remains accessible. Solution: First, ensure that only WPML plugins and PublishPress are active by deactivating all other plugins. Remember to back up your website and database before making these changes. If the issue persists, add the following code to your
functions.php
file:
// WPML Workaround for compsupp-7344<br />function wpml_compsupp7344_disable_wpml_media_translation_menu() {<br /> // Check if the current user lacks the required capability<br /> if (! current_user_can('wpml_manage_media_translation')) {<br /> // Remove the WPML Media Translation menu<br />remove_submenu_page( 'tm/menu/main.php', 'wpml-media' );<br /> }<br />}<br /><br />add_action('admin_init', 'wpml_compsupp7344_disable_wpml_media_translation_menu');
After adding this code, verify if the WPML Media menu is no longer visible to the restricted users.
