ವಿವರಣೆ
Highland Software Custom Roles Manager extends WordPress role management by allowing administrators to create custom roles, assign multiple roles to users, and manage capabilities through an intuitive interface.
This plugin follows WordPress best practices for role and capability management, including strict server-side validation and protection against unsafe capability assignment.
Version 1.0.3 improves role loading, synchronization, and compatibility with third-party plugins by automatically detecting and rendering dynamically registered WordPress roles.
The plugin now correctly displays existing user roles and automatically detects roles created by third-party plugins such as WooCommerce, LMS platforms, membership systems, CRM integrations, and other custom role providers — without requiring administrators to resave settings.
