• I have a particular problem to solve. I created a community with plugin BuddyPress. All it’a ok. I must manage the ‘Profile Fields‘. I do normally it because i’ve the administrator role. This community is not open. Each member must request to be part of it with a registration module. When i receive the request i contact the potential member for acquiring of all data that i need. The member must be registered from the wordpress dashboard by a person of my team. The person who must register the member has a role of Author. To obtain my goal i used yours great plugin ‘User Role Editor’. I want that my Author view/edit only Posts, CPT, Media, and Users. So i’ve created a new role based on Administrator called ‘authoradvanced – Advanced Author‘. At this point i removed all extra capabilities of an Adiminstrator. All is ok, but when i deselected ‘manage_options‘ capability the new role can’t modify ‘Profile Fields‘ because the message returned is ‘Non puoi modificare l’utente richiesto . (italian, sorry)’. At this point i tryed to add a new privilege called ‘edit_profile_fields‘. In this way i can edit ‘Profile Fields‘ but for the only user that manages the new BuddyPress members. Again he can’t edit the ‘Profile Fields‘ of the other users created from him. I hope to be clear. I tried another privilege called ‘manage_profile_fields‘ but nothing happens.

    How I solve this problem?

    P.S. – The new ‘Advanced Author’ role doesn’t must have the capability of ‘manage_options’.

    These are the only granted capabilities:
    copy_posts
    create_users
    delete_others_posts
    delete_posts
    delete_private_posts
    delete_published_posts
    edit_others_posts
    edit_others_s
    edit_posts
    edit_private_posts
    edit_profile_fields
    edit_published_posts
    edit_s
    edit_users
    list_users
    manage_categories
    manage_links
    manage_profile_fields
    moderate_comments
    publish_posts
    publish_s
    read
    read_private_pages
    read_private_posts
    read_private_s
    unfiltered_html
    unfiltered_upload
    upload_files

    custom capabilities:
    copy_posts
    edit_others_s
    edit_profile_fields – new added
    edit_s
    manage_profile_fields – new added
    publish_s
    read_private_s
