<p>‘User Upgrade Capability’ is a plugin to help with a multi-site network and helps with the administration of users and their roles. When you start using a multi-site WordPress installation you soon realise the power of having the ability to use a separate site for different functions (e.g. main site, separate blog, separate calendar …etc) each can then be handled separately and even with different themes.</p>
<p>However, without ‘User Upgrade Capabilities’ you would need to maintain the user access on each site, this is an overhead for administrators since for each site Admins will need to grant access and add/remove capabilties & roles as required, which all takes time.  ‘User Upgrade Capability’ helps with this admin task and allows you to create a new site and point back to a master reference site re-using its user listing and capabilties/roles to define access permissions for the new linked site.</p>
<p>One example of where this approach is helpful is for the case where you want multiple calendars for different purposes on the same WordPress site.  Calendar plugins generally use a fixed database table name, this means that you can’t install two calendars on the same site.  With ‘User Upgrade Capability’ you can create a new site for each calendar and point back to the reference site re-using its user base and capabilties.  The end user doesn’t even know that the calendars are on a different site.</p>

User Upgrade Capability

Great plugin. Simple, but effective. Thank you.

Simple, but effective

Link multiple network sites/blogs together - Maintain only one site list of users.

<p>Post Lockdown protects your site-critical pages and posts by disabling all non-admin users’ ability to trash or delete them.<br />
It can also lock pages and posts, which will disable editing of the post as well as disabling trashing/deleting.</p>
<p>The plugin adds a new options page under the Settings menu in your WordPress admin panel which allows you to quickly search and<br />
select for all pages and posts of any post type. When you find the item you want to select, simply click it to move it to the right<br />
box and click Save Changes.</p>
<p>See the screenshots for an example of what an Editor would see when they view a list of posts with some locked and protected.</p>


Post Lockdown

Works very well, my only criticism is that private posts/pages should be lockable, ie private posts should appear in the search form.

In order to lock them currently you need to publish them, then lock/portect, and then make it private again

Update!! the developer added the minor feuature request/bug. This plugin is now perfect!

Now perfect

I think the plugin is really useful, otherwise I wouldn't have made it ;)

Great Plugin

Allows admins to protect selected posts and pages so they cannot be trashed or deleted by non-admin users.
