Plugin Description
SV Press Permit Converter Member Groups to Roles allows you to change from using Press Permit's probritary User Groups Model back to WordPress' default User Roles standard. As WordPress actually does allow multiple User Roles, most scenarios won't need a non-standard way for organizing members.
You will still be able to use content permissions feature through Press Permit, but with better support for third party plugins which usually won't be compatible with Press Permit's custom user groups. You may want to use the
Multiple Roles Plugin in future in addition to Press Permit.
Once you have converted the member's groups to roles and stopped using Press Permit's user groups, you may safely uninstall this plugin and won't need it anylonger.
Conversion process works with unlimited amount of members in your database and will not break when browser window may be closed - just reopen conversion page and continue.
This plugin is build to work out-of-the-box, minimal configuration required. Installation is quite simple:
- Upload plugin-directory to the
/wp-content/plugins/ directory
- Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
