In the next post, we will explore how to manage user groups in WordPress using the WPFront User Role Editor plugin. Let’s dive into creating a new user group in WordPress with this plugin.

Create new user group

To kickstart the process, navigate to Roles > Add New. Here, you’ll be required to provide key information and set permissions for the new group:

1. Display Name: Fill in the display name for the group.
2. Role Name: Enter the group name in an unaccented format without spaces. The plugin auto-generates this based on the display name you input, which you can then modify if needed.
   For instance, if you input "Support" as the display name, the role name will be autogenerated as "h_tr," which you can change to "support" for clarity.
3. Capabilities: This section is crucial for setting permissions for the group. You can select the specific permissions you want to assign. A handy feature of the WPFront User Role Editor plugin is the ability to copy permissions from an existing group and customize them to your preference.

Select the group you wish to duplicate permissions from, apply it, and then make the necessary tweaks. This way, the permissions from the chosen group will be copied over to the new group.

Once you’ve fine-tuned the settings, simply click Add New Role to save your changes.

In conclusion, utilizing the WPFront User Role Editor Plugin to add, edit, or remove user groups can streamline the process of managing members on your website or blog effectively. If you want your newly registered members to automatically belong to this group, ensure you set it as the Default in accordance with the previous guidance.
