<p>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.</p>
<p>This plugin follows WordPress best practices for role and capability management, including strict server-side validation and protection against unsafe capability assignment.</p>
<p>Version 1.0.3 improves role loading, synchronization, and compatibility with third-party plugins by automatically detecting and rendering dynamically registered WordPress roles.</p>
