How to create custom capability?

    I can see how this can create a group, and give that group existing to new capabilities.

    But exactly how are new capabilities defined? Outside of creating a name/alias for them?

    Where is the code stored to show exactly the permissions for a new custom capability?

    Thank you.

    I seen that, doesn’t explain how the actual custom capability is created.

    It allows you to give groups access to capabilities or custom capabilities.

    But no where does it define what those custom capabilities can or can not do.

    So where is that part defined?

    Why is this unanswered? It’s a valid inquiry. The plug-in boasts that you can create custom capabilities.

    Naming a capability is not the same as creating custom capabilities with proprietary functionality!

    Hi,

    Groups uses capabilities to allow to restrict content based on them if they are enabled for access restriction. It also provides shortcodes which can be used to render content conditionally based on capabilities that the viewing user has or hasn’t. This is further described in the documentation and the corresponding subsections https://docs.itthinx.com/document/groups/access-control/

    If there are any suggestions for specific semantics that are desired for custom capabilities beyond what is already covered, then I’d be happy to consider that.

    Cheers
