Roles & Capabilities

Coming from 'Members' which got bloated, this is just one of those hidden gems in the wordpress repository that is simple, clean bloatfree and just works.

Keep it up. :)

A hidden gem


This plugin is exactly in line with I think plugins should be: clear, one task only, well integrated without bloat meaningless UI elements that do nothing. That's what I do with my plugins as well.
