Frequently Asked Questions

Can I edit or delete default WordPress roles like “administrator” or “editor”?

No. For security and stability reasons, the plugin does not allow editing or deleting WordPress default roles.

Can I assign roles to multiple users at once?

Yes. The plugin includes a feature to bulk assign or remove roles from users in one simple interface.

Is it safe to use this plugin on a live website?

Absolutely. The plugin uses native WordPress security checks like current_user_can() and wp_verify_nonce() to prevent unauthorized actions.

What happens if I try to remove the administrator role from myself?

The plugin prevents you from accidentally removing your own administrator role to avoid getting locked out of your site.

Can I rename an existing role?

Yes, you can rename a custom role (not a WordPress default one) directly from the plugin interface.

Is the plugin compatible with membership or eCommerce plugins?

Yes. The plugin works with the native WordPress role system, so it’s compatible with most plugins that rely on standard roles (e.g., WooCommerce, MemberPress, etc.).
