Roles and Capabilities: WordPress
If we have built your website in WordPress, you may have a few questions with regards to what your user role can or can not do.
Typically we do not allow client accounts to have either 'Super Admin' or 'Administrator' roles. This is because these roles have the availability to severely break your website. Of course you can always request access to these roles. But you will be required to sign a waiver, acknowledging the risk of using these roles.
Depending on your website or development needs your roles and/or capabilities may be different.
WordPress uses a concept of Roles, designed to give the site owner the ability to control what users can and cannot do within the site. A site owner can manage the user access to such tasks as writing and editing posts, creating Pages, creating categories, moderating comments, managing plugins, managing themes, and managing other users, by assigning a specific role to each of the users.
Summary of Roles
- Administrator: Somebody who has access to all the administration features within a single site.
- Editor: Somebody who can publish and manage posts including the posts of other users.
- Author: Somebody who can publish and manage their own posts.
- Contributor: Somebody who can write and manage their own posts but cannot publish them.
- Subscriber: Somebody who can only manage their profile.
