    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.

    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.
