User role for developer

  • Hi,

    Is it possible to have a user role for developers? Right now, we can only give them admin access. However, giving them admin access will also give them access into our entire business. They will be able to see our company sales, earnings, etc. which is of course confidential information. How can we protect ourselves if right now your only solution is to provide developers with admin access?

  • Hello Bezreh,

    Thanks for reaching out!

    In woocommerce, there are different types of user roles available like Subscriber, Contributor, Author, Editor, Customer, Shop Manager, and all roles have their own accessibility.

    Once you create a new user, assign the role based on the access that you need to provide.

    For details about each user’s roles and permission click here.

    Hope this helps. Please review the document and assign the user roles based on that.

    Thanks,

    Hi Hitendra,

    Thanks for your response.

    I’m well aware of these different user roles, yet none of them is for developers. I have done a lot of research, and the only role that can be assigned for developer support is admin. Yet admin, as I explained, also gives them access to confidential company information.

    Is there any way you would be able to create a “developer” user role?

    Thanks and regards,
    Lama

    Okay, so if you want to prevent specific site menus like order, coupons, dashboard menus, etc, for a developer user then the best is that you can use the below plugin.

    In this plugin, you can create a new user and assign only the required admin access.
