Custom post types made with plugins such as Custom Post Type UI usually use the same permission as blog posts, so every Author and Contributor sees and can create them. SnippetDesk Role Access gives you one table: post types down the side, roles across the top. Untick a box and that role no longer sees the post type anywhere in the admin.
- Hides the post type’s menu, list, editor, “New” toolbar link and quick edit for that role.
- Also closed through the REST API and direct links, because it works through WordPress’s own permission checks instead of hiding screens.
- Visitors still see the published pages; only admin access changes.
- Administrators always keep full access, so you cannot lock yourself out.
- Nothing changes until you untick a box.
- A user with several roles keeps access if any of their roles is allowed.
