Paid Memberships Pro – Roles

The Roles Add-on for Paid Memberships Pro allows websites to assign WordPress user roles based on membership levels. It creates a direct connection between membership access and user permissions, which helps manage capabilities more efficiently.

With this add-on, the system automatically generates a custom role for each membership level. For example, when a user registers for a specific level, the system assigns the corresponding role immediately. As a result, websites can control user permissions without manual role assignment.

In addition, the add-on allows administrators to assign one or more existing WordPress roles to members. Therefore, websites can combine membership access with predefined roles such as Subscriber, Author, or other custom roles. Moreover, these roles can be customized further using role management plugins to adjust capabilities as needed.

Furthermore, the system updates user roles dynamically when membership status changes. For example, when a membership is canceled or expires, the add-on removes the assigned role and applies the default site role. Consequently, websites can maintain accurate and consistent access control without manual updates.

The add-on also supports integration with other plugins that rely on WordPress roles. This allows websites to extend functionality and manage permissions across multiple systems while keeping membership data synchronized.
