In some cases, you may want to limit which users have access to certain elements. For instance, you may not want to give a user who can write posts permission to add videos.

These permissions are granted or limited according to the user’s role. For more details on roles, see Add a user.

Limit access to elements with the Element Manager

Open the Element Manager from Editor > Elements Manager . For more details, see Element Manager.

A table with a list of all the elements in your site appears. The last column shows the permissions for the element.
Find the element whose permissions you want to limit, and click Edit.
By default, all users can access all elements on the post or page.
Clear the checkboxes to prevent these elements from appearing in the Editor for users with these roles.
