    Hi. I’m trying to give a certain user role dashboard access to the full range of what the Business Directory plugin offers – https://wordpress.org/plugins/business-directory-plugin/. Specifically I want the user role to be able to publish pending directory entries. Can you advise how I can do this using user role editor. Thanks very much.

    All ‘Directory Admin’ menu items are protected by ‘administrator’ role.
    ‘Directory’ custom post type uses the same user capabilities as a standard WordPress post does: ‘edit_posts’, etc. So you may use built-in WordPress roles (editor is enough to publish pending directories from other contributors) as the base for your own custom role to work with ‘Directory’ one.

    Thanks so much. Setting up my role based on the editor role worked just as I wanted it to.
