Original Answer
Good news is, from version 2.3.7 of Redirection plugin, they introduced a filter called redirection_role
for the privilege. Here's is the core code (v.2.3.7):
add_management_page( __( "Redirection", 'redirection' ), __( "Redirection", 'redirection' ), apply_filters( 'redirection_role', 'administrator' ), basename( __FILE__ ), array( &$this, "admin_screen" ) );
###Solution
Just put the following code into your theme's functions.php
to enable 'editor' to get access to the 'Redirection' submenu:
/**
* Redirection Plugin Editor access
*/
add_filter( 'redirection_role', 'redirection_to_editor' );
function redirection_to_editor() {
return 'edit_pages';
}
