Multisite: Admins can see the settings page

    Hi. Thanks for the great plugin.
    I use it in a multisite installation.
    Althought as superadmin, I have checked the “Use single network configuration file for all sites.”, the admin of each subblog, can access the “W3 Total Cache->General Settings” of her/his subblog and change the settings.
    Shouldn’t the W3 Total Cache settings be hidden for all subblogs admins, since the “Use single network configuration file for all sites.” is checked be the super admin?
    How can I hide them?

    Thanks in advance
    Lena

    Hello @lenasterg

    Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to help!

    The option  “Use single network configuration file for all sites.” when checked means that the W3 Total Cache settings on the main website will be replicated on each subsite in multisite environment.
    This being said, this does not restrict admins from using the W3 Total Cache in the subblogs.
    To achieve this, you need to make sure that only superadmin have access to this and other admins do not.
    However, this is not something that can be achieved in the W3 Total Cache, but in the user roles coniguration

    Thanks!

    @vmarko That’s for your answer.

    Since a plugin can check if there the user role and if there is a multisite installation, it can be done via the W3 Total cache plugin also. Please let the plugin development team, know about my comment.

    Thanks in advance
