The WordPress User Roles and Capabilities system provides a robust way to control user access to sensitive data on your WordPress site.

While the predefined roles and capabilities should suffice for most requirements, it is also possible to add new user roles, and define capabilities for that role.

In this session, you’ll learn about the default WordPress roles and capabilities, how they are set up and stored in the WordPress database, and how you can create custom roles and assign capabilities.
