<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>

Access Areas for WordPress

Your plugin is great :), it is really useful for everybody who wants to manage and control where people can access.
I want to tell you also that I am the head creator of Import Users From CSV With Meta and in the new version of this plugin 1.7.2, I have just included compatibility with your plugin.
People can import access areas directly in the CSV.
Thanks!!
