Everything a modern role plugin should have.
Built for real admin workflows: not just capability checkboxes, but safer role changes, cleaner user management and practical access control.
Roles & capabilities
Create, edit, clone and delete roles from a polished visual interface with capability search, grouping and role comparison.
Multiple roles
Replace the default single-role dropdown with clean profile checkboxes so users can hold multiple roles safely.
Smart Rules
Automatically remove old or conflicting roles when a new role is added, with clear admin warnings after profile saves.
Content Control
Restrict posts and pages by role or login status, with redirect options, denied messages and archive/search hiding for posts.
User Filters
Build unlimited AND filters to find users by role combinations, missing roles or blocked roles without messy manual searches.
Admin access tools
Hide the admin bar, block dashboard access, hide left-side admin menus and block direct access to hidden admin screens.
Import, export & backups
Export roles, settings and plugin-managed data to JSON, import safely and keep automatic safety backups before changes.
Pro safety scanners
Planned Pro scanners will detect risky roles, users without roles, conflicting role combinations and external permission changes.
Free vs Pro
Free is designed to be useful on real sites. Pro is for advanced permissions, agencies, audits and larger workflows.

Frequently asked questions
Answers for site owners, agencies and administrators before installing Titanium User Role Manager, Capabilities & Access Control.
Where can I get the free version?
You can install the Free version from WordPress.org: Titanium User Role Manager, Capabilities & Access Control.
Is Titanium User Role Manager, Capabilities & Access Control a membership plugin?
No. It manages WordPress roles, capabilities and role-based access tools. It does not replace PMPro, MemberPress, WooCommerce Memberships or subscription plugins.
Will it automatically create roles for me?
No. There is no setup wizard and no automatic role generation. You create, clone, edit and delete roles only when you choose to.
Can I use it only as a simple role editor?
Yes. The extra modules can be switched off, so you can use it purely for role and capability management if that is all you need.
Can I create, clone and delete WordPress roles?
Yes. The Free version includes role creation, cloning and deletion, with safety checks for used roles, default roles and the Administrator role.
Can I edit capabilities without writing code?
Yes. Capabilities can be managed from a visual interface with search and capability group filters, so you do not need to edit PHP or database values manually.
Can I change the default role for new users?
Yes. The Free version includes a compact default-role setting, with protection so the current default role cannot be deleted by accident.
Does it protect the Administrator role?
Yes. The Administrator role cannot be deleted, is not offered as a normal clone source, and is protected from dangerous capability removal.
What happens if I delete a role that users already have?
You must confirm the action first. The role is removed from assigned users, and any user who would otherwise have no role receives the current default registration role.
Can one user have multiple roles?
Yes. Multiple Roles is included in Free. When enabled, the user profile role selector becomes a clean checkbox list.
Is Multiple Roles enabled by default?
No. It is off on first install because it changes the WordPress profile role selector. You can enable it when you need it.
What are Smart Rules?
Smart Rules automatically remove selected roles when another role is added. This helps prevent conflicts such as Silver, Gold and Platinum roles being assigned together.
Will Smart Rules warn me when roles are removed?
Yes. When roles are changed on a user profile, the plugin shows an admin warning listing what was removed and links to the Smart Rules settings.
Can I restrict posts and pages by role?
Yes. Free includes post and page access control with role-based allow/block modes, login status modes, redirect URLs and denied messages.
Can restricted posts be hidden from archives and search?
Yes. For posts, you can choose whether restricted content is hidden from frontend lists, archives and search results, or only blocked after clicking.
Does Content Control affect pages the same way as posts?
Pages can be restricted, but the frontend list visibility option is only shown for posts because pages are normally not listed like posts in archives.
Can I restrict custom post types?
Free lets you enable Content Control for public custom post types. Pro is planned to add more advanced rule logic and taxonomy-aware controls.
Can I hide the WordPress admin bar by role?
Yes. Frontend & Login Tools includes admin bar hiding for selected roles.
Can I block dashboard access for certain roles?
Yes. You can block selected roles from opening the WordPress dashboard and send them back to the frontend.
Can I hide admin menu items by role?
Yes. The Free version includes basic admin menu visibility controls and can also block direct URL access to hidden admin screens.
Can I rename or reorder admin menus?
That is planned for Pro. Free focuses on hiding and blocking admin menu access, while Pro can add advanced menu editing such as rename, reorder and icon control.
Can I redirect users after login or logout?
Yes. Free includes simple role-based login and logout redirect URLs.
Does it include visibility shortcodes?
Yes. Free includes simple shortcodes for showing or hiding content by role and login status.
Will Pro add advanced shortcode rules?
Yes. Pro is planned to add advanced conditions such as AND/OR groups, role is not, capability checks and more flexible content visibility rules.
Can I filter users by role?
Yes. Free includes unlimited AND role filters, so you can combine conditions such as role is Silver and role is not Stripe.
Will Pro add saved user views and bulk actions?
Yes. Saved views, OR groups, filtered user export and bulk role actions are planned Pro features.
Does it include backups before role changes?
Yes. Safety backups are created before important role changes, restores and imports so you have a safer recovery path.
Can I import and export plugin settings?
Yes. Free can export plugin-managed data such as roles, capabilities, Smart Rules, Content Control settings, plugin settings and safety backups.
Does the export include passwords?
No. Passwords are not exported. Future Pro user-data export is planned to be passwordless and focused on safer migration and recovery.
Will Pro export full user data?
Yes, Pro is planned to add full user-data export and import without passwords, with preview, safer matching and rollback-style protections.
Can I see why a user has a permission?
This is planned for Pro. A permission explainer can show whether access comes from a role, user-specific capability, explicit deny rule or another source.
Will Pro include user-specific capabilities?
Yes. Pro is planned to allow carefully controlled user-specific capabilities for exceptions that should not require a whole new role.
Will Pro include explicit deny capabilities?
Yes. Explicit deny is planned as a Pro feature because it is powerful but needs careful UI and safety checks to avoid confusing access rules.
Will Pro include AND/OR access rules?
Yes. Advanced Content Control in Pro is planned to support condition groups such as logged-out OR role is Editor AND role is not Blocked.
Will Pro include role audit logs?
Yes. Role audit logs, history, restore points and change tracking are planned Pro features for serious sites and agencies.
Will Pro include permission scanners?
Yes. Planned scanners include dangerous capabilities, users with no role, conflicting roles, orphan capabilities and scheduled role checks.
Will it work with WooCommerce or other plugins?
It works with WordPress roles and capabilities, including custom roles and capabilities added by other plugins. It does not take over their payment, membership or subscription logic.
Can I use it with membership plugins?
Yes, but it does not replace them. Use your membership plugin for payments and levels, and Titanium User Role Manager, Capabilities & Access Control for safer role management and access tools.
Will it slow down my site?
The plugin is modular. Features such as Smart Rules, Content Control and Frontend & Login Tools can be switched off when not needed, so unused hooks do not run unnecessarily.
What happens if I disable a module?
Existing settings are kept, but the module stops enforcing its rules until you enable it again. Disabled module controls are shown as inactive rather than deleted.
Can I change the admin UI color?
Yes. Free includes predefined color themes such as Green, Blue, Red, Burgundy, Pink, Purple, Teal, Orange, White, Silver, Titanium and Black.
Can I delete all plugin data on uninstall?
Yes. There is a setting for deleting plugin-managed data on uninstall. WordPress core role and capability changes are not automatically reverted by uninstall.
Is multisite supported?
Basic role management can work on normal WordPress installs. Advanced multisite role sync and network-level tools are planned for Pro because they need extra safety controls.
Why not just use an older role editor?
Older role editors are useful, but Titanium User Role Manager, Capabilities & Access Control combines role editing, multiple roles, Smart Rules, Content Control, admin visibility, filters, safety backups and a modern interface in one workflow.
Build safer WordPress role workflows.
Start with the strong Free version, then upgrade to Pro when your site needs advanced permission control, audits, scanners and agency-level tools.
