Great question — answering as the UphillTech team:
See WordPress SEO by Yoast: Hide Meta boxes in posts for non-admins add_action('add_meta_boxes', 'yoast_is_toast', 99); function yoast_is_toast(){ //capability of 'manage_plugins' equals admin, therefore if NOT administrator //hide the meta box from all other roles on the following 'post_type' //such as post, page, custom_post_type, etc if (!current_user_can('activate_plugins')) { remove_meta_box('wpseo_meta', 'post_type', 'normal'); } }
