How To Create Custom User Role in Wordpress [closed]

Question

I have to create a Reviewer (custom) role for users in WordPress , how can I create a custom rule ?

Answer 1

You can use add role function like

<?php add_role( $role, $display_name, $capabilities ); ?>

Example

add_role('basic_contributor', 'Basic Contributor', array(
    'read' => true, // True allows that capability
    'edit_posts' => true,
    'delete_posts' => false, // Use false to explicitly deny
));

Also see this tutorial (custom rule discussed) and this plugin too if you don't want to write any code.
