Admin menu should appear to anyone with access to any of the admin features and not just those with the administrator role.

Admin Menu does not appear to anyone other than those with the administrator role. This is poor design as it should be available to anyone who has access to any of the administration features. Otherwise they cannot access these features as there is no navigation path to them. This caused the client to have to add me as an administrator despite their preference to only provide essential functions.

    Thanks @Upton, Michael. Understood. Will add as a feature request for more granular security controls. Correct me if wrong, but you are looking for a direct mapping of a role’s individual feature permissions to access.

    Perceived scenario: User is assigned a non-admin custom role that is not an Administrator, but has some administrator features. User is blocked from access to areas to action on the additional “admin” features that were added to the role?
