Give user 1 s2 member role and 1 wp role

#1

Hello I’ve been trying to give a user the s2 member role 'Member" which works fine, but for 2 or 3 I also want them to be able to add administrator or Editor. I have tried using https://wordpress.org/plugins/role-includer/, https://wordpress.org/plugins/multiple-roles-per-user/ and wordpress.org/plugins/multiple-roles/. When I create my Membership Levels/Labels and I go to Users, the check boxes do not have my membership level. Instead it says ‘s2Member Level 1’ and on through level 4. Any Idea how I can get the levels tor go over to WordPress.

tx,

Aaron

Allow only certain s2Member users additional Wordpress capabilities?

You don’t want to give users multiple roles to accomplish this. Instead, you want to add the relevant capabilities to an existing s2Member role.

The easiest way to do this is to use the Capability Manager Enhanced plugin. That will both show you what capabilities Editors have and enable you to add them to a specific s2Member role.

You could do the same with the Administrator role, but I’d strongly advise against it. Be very careful what capabilities you grant to your members; otherwise, you might find your site destroyed.
