Edit Role Display Name?

    I definitely understand why the Role core tag (my-role) cannot be edited, but is there a reason the display name is also not able to be edited?

    Sadly cloning it to rename it does not appear to also copy over the users.

    Is the display name being used in connective logic, or can it be adjusted directly in the DB?

    Hi @grungyape

    The role name is based on the role title and is saved in the wp_options table in wp_users_roles option. I wouldn’t recommend changing this option directly in the database, though.

    Kind regards

    Thank you. I’ll duplicate it and move users to the new one then.
