Filtering by user role

If you want to display only entries created by users with a certain role, you can do that with the Advanced Filters extension.

Note: This functionality requires GravityView 2.0.14. Filtering by role may not work properly in earlier versions.

When editing a View, scroll to the Settings Panel and click the "Filter & Sort" tab:

If you choose "Any Role of Current User", the currently logged-in user's roles will be used

Filter configured with 'Any Role of Current User' selected

All of the user's roles will be used to filter the entries: If a user is logged in and the user has the roles of "Subscriber" as well as "Customer", then the filter will show entries from users who are Subscribers OR Customers. If the current user is an Editor as well as an Administrator, then entries will be shown from all Editors and Administrators.

You can also use "is not"!

You can choose to exclude entries created by users with certain roles by selecting the "is not" comparison from the filter dropdown.

To show all entries that were not created by site administrators, you could add this configuration: "Created By User Role" "is not" "Administrator", as shown below.
