Operator privilege not working unless they join realm off of other players.
Operator privileges for realm members does not work unless they join the server off of another player. If they join the realm directly they don't see world settings in the settings menu. If they join the realm off of a member that is currently playing the realm they have access to the world settings under settings in the menu. If the player joins the server normally they lose all operator privileges.

Changed realms platform to Bedrock per original environment content and comment on REALMS-2013 from this issue's submitter.
Forward-resolving to REALMS-2013 as that contains a workaround

One way to change world settings is to close the realm, download the world, make the changes to the local copy, and replace the world back on the realm. You won't need to turn cheats on to do that, and if you have a backup of the realm from before cheats were turned on you should be able to start from that point (of course any progress after that backup would be lost, but it may be worth it to allow achievements etc).

The bug still exists in version 1.16.1.02.
In case it helps to narrow this down, I'd like to add:
- Changes to a player's operator status is immediately reflected in the enabled state of the controls on that player's menu screen no matter if the change is performed from a client (via chat) or at the server (using the console command)
- Since this is similar to
REALMS-2013, I tried it's workaround, but inviting an operator to join the game does not fix this bug - I've tested this on Win10, iPhone, and iPad clients connected to both Windows and Linux servers in both LAN and Internet environments
(I did quite a bit of testing before I decided to report this.)

Only the Realm owner should have access to the World Settings menu, see REALMS-2013.

This is happening to me. Operator only works if I join through someone playing on the realm.
If I join the server regularly through the server list I no longer have operator. That means I then can't do things I want to do like change the difficulty.
Using bedrock on windows 10. Operator privileges have not been working for us as well since May. Submitted a bug: https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/REALMS-1770. Mojang responded they would look into it but didn't respond back.
Thank you for your post, the workaround works for me, if the person who has operator assigned joins through a friend instead of joining directly, their operator privileges show and can be used. A silly workaround but at least we have something until this gets fixed.
Using this as a work around is great, but I know SilentWhisperer reported something similar to this as a bug when 1.11 came out (I think). Apparently, at that time, anyone could access operator functions if they joined under a friends name instead of joining directly. I don't know what the MCPE bug report listing is or if it's been tweaked but this part still works so we'll see how long this work around actually works.
This seems to still be an issue as of June 2020. My sister and I created a realm - she is the owner and made me an Operator. Originally before we had created it as a realm I had access to the World settings. After being made an Operator again once it was made into a realm, I no longer have access to these settings. I can do gamerule commands, but apparently changing Difficulty this way is considered a cheat...? So I cannot alter it this way.
But, with this issue, the owner can have access to the "operator privileges", or the problem is only with other member?
Because i'm a owner who can't do operator stuff.
Are you unable to access game rules via settings? That's the issue I'm having on my realm on Xbox one. If you are the owner, you can still change the game rules via chat commands (at least with my issue you can) but not via settings. (Ex. Show coords and whatnot)
Not via commands and not via settings. I had to activate cheats to show the coordinates.
This is why I discovered this problem, i had to show coords, and the commands didn't work, and no sign of option in the settings.
Playing on a friends realm that we all pay for and I’ve been made an Op but don’t have any access to settings even when joining through a friend (side note, friends don’t even show up on my Xbox Minecraft menu)
Thank you for your report!
However, this issue has been resolved as Working as Intended.
Only realm's owner should have access to the World Settings menu. Members with operator permissions can still change a few selected settings/gamerules via commands.
