actually no capabilities can be unset

  • Unfortunately there seems to be an issue with the User Role Editor plugin.

    If you go to:?Admin dashboard?>?Usuarios?>?User Role Editor?and select the administrator role from the dropdown menu (Selecciona perfil y cambia sus capacidades), you’ll notice that the edit_posts capability cannot be unset (actually no capabilities can be unset).

    why is this happening? We already tried to figure it out with no luck.

    Administrator role is by WordPress design the built-in role for superuser, who by default has all permissions. URE does not allow revoke any capability from administrator role for this reason. More if URE detects in another role some capability which is not granted to administrator role, it automatically grants this capability to administrator role.

    If you wish to built a role with less permissions than administrator role, you can add new role as a copy of administrator role, and revoke unneeded capabilities for this new custom role.
