This plugin prevents unauthorized admin users from damaging or compromising your website.
A common technique for hackers is to exploit vulnerabilities in your plugins or theme and try to create an unauthorized admin user for themselves. Once they have admin access they can do whatever they want to your website. They can deface it, display inappropriate content, or carry out many other malicious acts.
Restricted User Activity adds an extra step to the process of allowing Admin users to perform actions on your website. It achieves this by explicitly specifying valid Admin user ids in the wp-config.php file. Even if a hacker was able to create an Admin user for themselves, they won’t be able to perform any actions since their user id would not be in the valid user list.
Note: This plugin requires some technical knowledge about how the WordPress wp-config.php file works and basic PHP coding. A single line of code needs to be added to the wp-config.php file.

Provides stricter controls for admin user creation and activity

User Role Editor


Más sencillo de usar que otros plugins similares y me ha solucionado un problema que no podía solucionar con otro plugin similar.



Con otro plugin muy parecido tuve el problema de que no distinguía entre mayúsculas y minúsculas, con lo que asignaba mal las "capabilities" si estás tenían mayúsculas.



Con este plugin, problema resuelto.


Ha funcionado donde otros no


A powerfull, logical, native approach to capabilities and roles, without the need to code it all. Great stuff. Probably the best solution out there.
