Wordpress-android: Page button not shown despite user having Editor role

Created on 15 Oct 2020  路  3Comments  路  Source: wordpress-mobile/WordPress-Android

Expected behavior

The app should allow site users with the editor role to manage (edit/add) pages. Only users with the author, contributor, or lesser roles are not meant to manage pages.

Roles and capabilities reference: https://wordpress.org/support/article/roles-and-capabilities/

Actual behavior

Tested on a self-hosted site

The app doesn't show site editors the buttons/features that would allow them to manage Pages. For example, on the site screen, the Pages button is not shown, so users can't navigate to the Pages list screen.
