Adminimize Plugin Gravity form not working

    I'm using the plugin Adminimize to enable certain users from accessing certain things in the dashboard. One of the users Im setting permissions for is the "editor". No matter what I do I'm unable to get the forms to show up in the editors dashboard is that set by default? How can I change this?

  2. I'm not familiar with Adminimize, but Gravity Forms uses standard WordPress role capabilities for access control. So it sounds like Adminimize does not. One plugin that does work with Gravity Forms and lets you control role management and Gravity Forms access on a role by role basis is the Members plugin from Justin Tadlock which has Role Management capabilities. You can find it here:

  4. Got any suggestions for a similar plugin or solution that's compatible with the latest version of Wordpress? I really need to to give editors access to Gravity Forms. Thanks.

  5. The members plugin does not work with the latest WordPress 3.3.1? I am using it without an issue. What sort of problem are you having, or did you read that it's compatible up to 3.2.1?

  6. It says it's not compatible but I haven't actually installed it yet. If you're using it and it works fine then I'll just go ahead and install it. Thanks.

  7. Please give it a shot. It is working without any trouble for me on several installations.

  8. I added the following snippet in functions.php to enable other plugins like Adminimize to set the permissions for Gravity Forms (tested in Wordpress 3.4.2).

    function connect_adminimize_gravityforms(){
    	$role = get_role('editor'); // Or whatever role you need to enable this for
    	$role->add_cap('gform_full_access');
    }
    add_action('admin_init','connect_adminimize_gravityforms');
