issue with new vendors

Hi Guys

I have been doing some further testing, if the site admin creates a new user and gives them store vendor role (from the WordPress backend) but does not assign this vendor to any membership plan (from WCFM membership), this new vendor can log in and upload images and they cannot see all the media on the site only there own.

which is how it should be.

As soon as the vendor is assigned a membership plan vis the (WCFM Membership plugin) this vendor can now no longer upload any media to products, profile or store logo or header images. and can also see all media when selecting media library.

It’s pointing to the update to WCFM Membership – WooCommerce Memberships for Multivendor Marketplace 2.6.6 as the problem.
this is a big problem for me

Hi Guys

really sorry to keep bothering you

when I comment out the code to give shop vendors the staff role aswell so the google calendar two-way sync works for shop vendors

//Calendar Sync For vendors - Add Straff Role
add_action( 'wcfmmp_new_store_created', function( $member_id, $wcfmmp_settings ) {
$member_user = new WP_User(absint($member_id));
$member_user->add_role('shop_staff'); 
update_user_meta( $member_id, '_wcfm_vendor', $member_id);
}, 50, 2 );

the system works correctly

I have commented out this code as it appears to be causing the issue

Hi guys

Hi Guys

I know you are very busy, but have you been able to look into this?

Any vendors that sign up have the issues below

1. they can see all the media on the site when he should only see his own – even if he has not uploaded any images yet!

and

2. they cannot upload any images to his logo, store header, products or profile image as I get “Sorry, you are not allowed to attach files to this post.”

you have access with the login details for my testing site provided in the above private post

Please advise

Steve

Hi Guys

I know you are extremely busy guys, but have you been able to look into this issue?

when adding

staff members
delivery drivers
affililiates as shown here https://wclovers.com/forums/topic/affiliate-profile-image/

all these user roles are able to access all the media on the site, when trying to upload an image and selecting “Media Libary”

however, they are not able to upload images to there profile, product image or any location as they get “Sorry, you are not allowed to attach files to this post.”

I have commented out of the site the code above that enabled vendors to have shop staff role so the two-way google calendar sync works, if I comment that back in vendors have the same problem when new one’s sign up

Please please can you take a look at this

I have updated all plugins to the latest versions

Steve

Hi Guys

that’s brilliant

will you also resolve the “Sorry, you are not allowed to attach files to this post.” error when these roles try to add media

Steve

Hi guys

That sounds like a good plan

Steve

Hi Guys

after updating to the latest versions this morning

shop staff
drivers
able to see all site media, this appears to be resolved 🙂

affiliates
can still see all sites media 🙁

vendors that have also got shop staff roll when using this code

//Calendar Sync For vendors - Add Staff Role
add_action( 'wcfmmp_new_store_created', function( $member_id, $wcfmmp_settings ) {
$member_user = new WP_User(absint($member_id));
$member_user->add_role('shop_staff'); 
update_user_meta( $member_id, '_wcfm_vendor', $member_id);
}, 50, 2 );

still, get Sorry, you are not allowed to attach files to this post.” error when these roles try to add media to products, profile image etc

I haven’t tested but im guessing that vendors who have also become affiliates would have Sorry, you are not allowed to attach files to this post.” error when these roles try to add media issue as well, because the affiliate role gets this error when trying to add an image to there profile.

Hi guys

so to recap after more testing on my site after updating all plugins today to the latest versions

issues remaining

delivery boy
Shop Staff
vendors with (shop staff role)
have this issue “Sorry, you are not allowed to attach files to this post.” when trying to add images to posts, products profile image

affiliates
can still see all sites media
and get Sorry, you are not allowed to attach files to this post.” when trying to add images profile

issues fixed
shop staff
delivery boys
vendors with shop staff role
issue allowing them to see all site media, this appears to be resolved 🙂

I’m guessing that vendors who also become affiliates will have issues with the images in the same way as vendors with shop staff role currently do

Steve

Hi Guys

No, we are not editing user roles at all

we haven’t installed a role editor, were just using the roles the WCFM have created

Steve

Hi guys

That’s brilliant many thanks for the help

Steve

Hi Guys

where do I put the code above, in the functions.php file?

I have looked but can’t see where you entered this on my test site

it is working on the test site really well, many thanks

Steve

Hi Guys

I have just had a vendor sign up and assign a staff member, that staff member has access to all users media.

staff role appears to have the same issue as the affiliates did, they can see all users media

is there a snippet I could apply to stop this, or will this be addressed in an update t the groups and staff plugin?

Steve

hi Guys

all sorted 🙂

I had an issue with wordfense

I disabled that plugin and it worked correctly, deleted and reinstalled

the system is working as expected 🙂

please close this ticket

many thanks for your help

Steve
