Do you mind me asking whats modifications you made to the plugin - you are of-course allowed to hack it up to your hearts content, but you will have to re-apply those hacks when I launch a new version... is there anything useful that you want to share - I may even incorporate it into the next version (with credit!). @Russ - COOL!

Suppressing a variety of post 'features' responded as expected, just as it had in Cloak. Thanks for your prompt work on this useful plugin!

Basically, rather than globally controlling all users options, it allows you to decide if Admins should also be effected by the plugin options, or if they should see all normal WordPress options. @Russ - Thanks for checking cloak out, it really is VERY helpful! One person said Cloak didn't work for also so I thought the source of the problem might be there. This is strange, I have this plugin working on a testbed server and another unix server fine right this minute! Give the new version a go - also, do you have any role management type plugins - especially 'Role Manager'? I know this plugin works for most people that use it - I am having trouble working out what may be causing this. I may have to re-write some of the code to make this more compatible for everyone. IMPORTANT v1.02 has some bugs in the code PLEASE UPDATE TO V1.03

Cloak works as advertised. Alas, Post Control still doesn't work. I notice that this choice always remains selected: "admin users see all normal post options" even when the other option is chosen. Is this helpful? I had uploaded 1.02.

Cloak works as advertised. Alas, Post Control still doesn’t work.

I notice that this choice always remains selected: “admin users see all normal post options” even when the other option is chosen. Is this helpful?

The third part just doesn't change anything. I'm on wp2.6.1 and your plugin 1.02 (latest one you uploaed on Sept. 3rd) Also, like Ed pointed out, the admin see everything dropdown box is very confusing. I mean, like.. there's only the real admin (me) and authors, editors and so forth. I have created a user with an Author role, logged in and still see the confusing post options even though I disabled it. Same here. The third part just doesn’t change anything.

If this still doesn't work for you, you could help me out and download the Cloak plugin and trying it in your WordPress install. You can get it from http://bradyjfrey.com/blog/wordpress-plugin/cloak/ - this doesn't cover all the functions of 2.6+ but if it works it means I have broken that section of the code! I have tried this out on 4 different server platforms (including 1 Windows server) and it has worked perfectly in all server environments, so your help would be appreciated guys to help me eliminate what is causing this to not work for a handful of people. @Russ (or anyone else the plugin doesn’t work for) FIRSTLY, DOWNLOAD THE LATEST VERSION v1.02.

The latest version is always available from the official WordPress plugin site at http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-cms-post-control/ @Ed - It is best not to hack the core code, hopefully this update will get the plugin working for you and allow you to hide this option from your authors. As a quick fix I suggest you take a look at the files in w-admin directory if you really have to hack this out.
