[wp-hackers] [Bug?] Selecting tax terms associated to a cpt

[James Currie]

Are you using a custom taxonomy for it via register_taxonomy? 
(http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_taxonomy)

If so, just set the capabilities to match your custome ones, ie:

   'capabilities'    => array(
             'manage_terms'  =>'custom-capability',
             'edit_terms'    =>'custom-capability',
             'delete_terms'  =>'custom-capability',
             'assign_terms'  =>'custom-capability'
     ),

>Hi list,

>Using Members [1], I created a new role that has access to tools only,

>Now, when I log into the system as a Tool Editor, I can add a new tool,
