How Do I Create a Custom Role in WordPress?

Creating a custom role in WordPress can be a great way to improve the security and organization of your site. By creating custom roles, you can control who has access to specific sections of your site, and you can also assign specific permissions to specific users.

To create a custom role in WordPress, first log in to your site. Then, click the “Roles” link in the left nav bar.

Next, click the “Add New Role” button.

In the “Role Name” field, name your role whatever you want. In the “Permissions” field, list the permissions your role should have.

The permissions you list here will be the permissions your users will have when they are assigned to this role.

To assign users to your role, click the “Assign Members” button. In the “Select Members” window, select the users you want to assign to this role.

Then, click the “OK” button.

Now, your role is ready to use! To test your role, click the “Test Role” button. This will test the permissions your users have for this role.
