Roles & Capabilities empowers administrators with a complete toolset for managing user roles and capabilities directly from the WordPress admin — no code required.

Designed for simplicity and control, this plugin allows you to customize user permissions to fit any use case. Access is strictly limited to site administrators for maximum security; no additional capabilities can grant access to its features.

Key Features

  • Create and manage custom roles.
  • Edit role names and assign or remove capabilities.
  • Clone existing roles for faster setup.
  • Grant or revoke capabilities for individual users.
  • Create and assign new custom capabilities.
  • Remove user-defined capabilities when no longer needed.

Whether you’re building a membership site, managing editorial permissions, or fine-tuning access, this plugin gives you the precision and flexibility you need.
