    Hi Andy, we’ve renamed the default user roles in WordPress but CA doesn’t reflect the changes. Is there anyway to change this behaviour?

    Also CA permissions seem to be applying to any role that has the same wordpress permissions rather than restricting to the role itself.

    Thanks

    Yep.
    Roles and permissions is a bit clunky in WordPress. In the developer docs, you are asked not to check the role names themselves, but what each role is allowed to do.
    So when church admin does a level check, here’s what is being checked
    Administrator – manage options
    Editor – delete others pages
    Author – publish posts
    Contributor – edit posts
    Subscriber – read

    Thanks Andy, no problem. I’ve kind of worked around it. I’ve opted to add permissions by user because you can’t assign a tab to more than one user role. Got it working for what I need at the moment though. I’m getting ready to handover some Jobs to people and people are so good at breaking stuff.
