User Role Permissions

Directory WordPress Plugin provides flexible user role management. You can define what each user role is allowed to do, including submitting listings, editing them, and viewing dashboard data.

Step 1: Configure User Roles

1. Go to Users > Roles (you can use a plugin like User Role Editor if not available).

2. Set the permissions for each role, such as:

3. • Administrator – Full control over listings, settings, and user accounts.

   • Editor/Contributor – Can submit, edit, and delete their own listings.

   • Subscriber – Can only view the directory (no submission or editing privileges).

Step 2: Customize Permissions for Frontend Submission

1. Go to Directory > Settings > User

2. Configure what each user role can do:

3. • Can Submit Listings – Enable for roles like Contributor and Editor.

   • Can Edit Listings – Allow users to edit their own listings.

   • Can Delete Listings – Grant permission to delete listings.

4. Save changes to apply these settings.

💡 Tip: Customize user permissions based on the directory type (e.g., business, medical, real estate) to limit what users can access or modify.
