Overview
Fixes this issue on Lab.
Before
Incorrect capabilities are assigned to Settings (and currently-disabled Integration) sub-pages and the "Quick Add" dashlet.
After
More appropriate capabilities are assigned to Settings (and currently-disabled Integration) sub-pages and the "Quick Add" dashlet.
Technical Details
As noted on the issue,
manage_options
seems a more sensible default capability thanadminister_civicrm
for the sub-pages becauseadminister_civicrm
is not automatically granted to WordPress admins. I have added a filter for each page so that this can be overridden if required.The "Quick Add" dashlet queries CiviCRM directly for the
add_contacts
permission because the permission may or may not have been granted to the WordPress User and thereforecurrent_user_can()
can't necessarily determine the User's status.
