I am trying to expand CiviCRM access to Wordpress users with the "Author" role. I have edited the following in CRM\ Core\PermissionsWordPress.php beginning on line 97 and added "|| current_user_can('author')":

if (current_user_can('super admin') ||
current_user_can('administrator') ||
current_user_can('editor') ||
current_user_can('author')

But it doesn't seem to have any effect. Any other tips on other places that might need to be edited?

also check the main civicrm.php file in: wp-content/plugins/civicrm/civicrm.php

however, u might want to try using v4.3 (in a late beta right now) since that version has integrated permissioning with WP and hence is a lot more flexible

Thanks for the quick reply. I will look at civicrm.php too.

I currently hope to get 4.3 installed on my dev server and test out over the next few weeks and if all is good I will probably update.

I have an event registration open so I can't really update until that is over.
