I have a small problem, I need to allow roles like Author and Editor into the back-end like the setting for Admin, how can I do this as I don’t want to use the page editor that was included.

UserPro > Global Options > Redirection Settings (Hiding Dashboard)

Change these settings. Thanks 🙂

So basically at the moment if you are an administrator the plugin will allow you to access the dashboard, but if you are not, it will redirect you to the profile page.

This is all good until you come to think about authors, who have to regularly edit posts, moderate comments and access the general functions within the dashboard.

As such we would like to make it so not only administrators are allowed to access the dashboard, but also authors, editors etc, whilst keeping the redirect for subscribers etc.
