hello - We want to make sure even author role has access to wpdatatable plugin. Is that available by default? Can we control which user role can get access to the plugin? Please let me know. Thanks in advance.
If I understand your question, if author can access wpDataTables back-end and create and manage table. The answer is: because wpDataTables has direct read&write access to the database (WordPress database, or a remote MySQL DB) all the plugin admin pages are restricted to admin users only, and not visible to editors or users with other roles. It is possible to allow them to see it you would need to grant them ‘manage_options’ capability.
