LIVE PREVIEW

What is Menu by User Role for WordPress?

Let me cut to the chase: if you want to take complete command of your WordPress menus, then Menu by User Role for WordPress is the ticket! This plugin isn’t just another tool; it’s your personal menu maestro, letting you whip up a Public Menu, a menu just for those logged in, and unique menus tailored for every User Role on your site. Talk about menu mastery!

And if you’re already using our White Label Branding for WordPress, you can effortlessly create brand-new User Roles too. The power is in your hands!

But wait, there’s more! This plugin pairs perfectly with our Pages by User Role for WordPress, which controls access to Pages, Posts, and Custom Post Types. This means you can serve up content based on user roles—how’s that for targeted engagement?

Curious to see this magic in action? You’ve got to try it! Jump onto our demo website and login using the User Roles we’ve set up (sorry, Administrators, you’re missing out this time).

You can test drive the plugin and see firsthand how it transforms your navigation. Go ahead, give it a whirl!

WordPress Custom Menus

Let’s break it down: WordPress has several predefined user roles:

• Subscriber: The basic user, can only manage their profile.
• Contributor: Writes and manages their posts, but can’t publish.
• Author: Publishes and manages their own posts—now we’re getting somewhere!
• Editor: Can publish/manage posts, pages, and other users’ content.
• Administrator: The big boss with all the admin access in wp-admin.
• Super Admin: Controls the entire network—only for the Multisite wizards!

Each role comes with its own set of predefined capabilities, so you know exactly what each user can do.

Now, the beauty of WordPress is its Appearance Menus Screen, which gives you the power to create custom navigation menus. You can ditch that boring default theme menu—just make sure your theme’s functions.php file is set to register this feature (most modern themes have this covered).

Easily add Pages, Posts, Categories, and custom links to the menu. Want to create multi-level menus? You can do it in a few clicks with a simple drag-and-drop!
