    Post Security Settings

    Adding to this: If logged in as a user (default role set to contributor) and I type http://www.domain.com/wp-admin/ I can actually access the WP panel despite setting the Back-Office to Administrator level only under the Security settings.

    Remedy / Temp fix for this issue:

    File: theme-functions.php
    Add the following code:

    // block WP admin access
    function prevent_admin_access() {
    if (strpos(strtolower($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']), '/wp-admin') !== false && !current_user_can('administrator')) {
    wp_redirect(get_option('siteurl'));
    }
    }

    add_action('init', 'prevent_admin_access', 0);
    // End of code

    Was the code redone from scratch for 3.1? Cause this was working fine before.

    Again, my install is on a FRESH new WP 3.1.4 (French)
