Improve this question

I’m farely new to Wordpress but are working on putting a page together which has a very simple purpose. I’m creating it for a customer with little or none IT experience so I want to create a user he can use to login and edit his pages – and nothing more. No settings, no comments, no posts, no links, no nothing, just create, delete and edit pages and maybe edit his own profile or at least his E-mail and password.

I can see that wordpress has some predefined roles for users but none of them completely does what I want and they either has to little or to many rights. I’ve been looking at the wordpress page http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities but can’t seem to get a clear answer.

Is it in any way possible for me to create my own user role (e.g. customer) where I can set the rights I want for him?

Thanks

Sincerely

Mestika

Install the Role Manager plugin. It does exactly what you want.

You can simply hide all unnecessary options from the admin panel. Use Adminimize plugin.
