When it comes to a membership site, apart from having admin and subscriber users, you might also need to add users with editor and author roles. Editors, for example, can help you with managing content on the site and they don’t need to be on the CRM. In this short guide, you’ll learn how you can add editor, author, and contributor users to your WordPress site running on Memberium for ActiveCampaign.
Adding Editor and Author users to Memberium
Go to Memberium > Settings and click on the Site Security tab.
On this page, you’ll need to add the capability that you’d want to give users from “WordPress Dashboard” box (as highlighted in the above screenshot).
For example, if you’d like to a user with Editor role, then you can add these capabilities:
- edit_pages
- edit_posts
- manage_categories
If you’re adding a user with “Author” role, then you can add these capabilities:
- delete_posts
- edit_posts
- edit_published_posts
- publish_posts
After adding the required capabilities, you’d just need to click on the “Update” button on the page.
That’s all you need to do!
Tip: This official WordPress codex is a very good resource to learn about roles and capabilities in detail. It also lists out all the capabilities that you can apply to different user roles.
