Bulk Change Role

Description

This plugin has been developed by WEBxMedia LTD to enable the transfer of users belonging to one WordPress role to another. This plugin originated from the need to move a group of users to a new role, as the existing role was being demoted (reduced permissions) for new user sign-ups. It’s simple and straightforward to use, and we have plans to enhance this plugin to enable more granular control over which users are transferred.

This isn’t a plugin you need all the time, but when you need it, it’s an absolute life saver. Dead simple and worked exactly the way I would want it to.

Nice. It does the job it is supposed to.
