Hi,

You should paste this code into the function.php of the child theme or via the CodeSnippet plugin here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/code-snippets/

add_action( 'add_meta_boxes', function() {
    // Only allow admins to see this metabox
    if ( ! current_user_can( 'administrator' ) ) {
        remove_meta_box( 'penci_custom_sidebar_page', null, 'advanced' );
        remove_meta_box( 'penci_view_count_custom', null, 'side' );
    }
}, 99 );

Regards,
PenciDesign.

Hello, when I go to a single post I see at the bottom options like "Options for this post/page" and "smart Lists settings for this post" (see attached screen shot)

Is there a way to disable this from showing up to non-admin users? I don't want anyone other than an admin user to be able to configure these settings.
