Group Users by Company
-
Hello Groups Support,
Say there are 3 different companies using one site: Company A, B & C
Each company has a leader and associates.
For example–Company A Has:
User 1 as Leader
User 1A as associate
User 2A as associate
User 3A as associateCompany B Has:
User 2 as Leader
User 1B as associate
User 2B as associate
User 3B as associateCompany C Has:
User 3 as Leader
User 1C as associate
User 2C as associate
User 3C as associateI would like to make:
the Leaders “Authors” and
the Associates “Contributors” BUTThe Associates should only be able to see and edit the Custom Posts created by the company they belong to.
Would this be possible with your Plugin?

An answer to your question is partially available in the plugin documentation here:
https://docs.itthinx.com/document/groups/memberships/Scroll down to the section entitled “User Profiles”.
Users with the Administer Groups permission (the
groups_admin_groupscapability) and theedit_userscapability can edit the group membership of their own account and of other accounts they are allowed to edit.Regarding “ordering by [variable]” (in this case your variable is “company”), perhaps creating using the inheritance tree properties of Groups is the way to do this?
For example:
Group: User – Capabilites: Read posts, post comments
Child Group: Company A – Capabilities: “User” stuff PLUS see Company A stuff
Child Group: Company A Leader – Cap.: User+Company A PLUSgroup_admins_groupandedit_usersChild Group: Company B – Capabilities: “User” stuff PLUS see Company B stuff
Child Group: Company B Leader – Cap.: User+Company B PLUSgroup_admins_groupandedit_usersChild Group: Company C – Capabilities: “User” stuff PLUS see Company C stuff
Child Group: Company C Leader – Cap.: User+Company C PLUSgroup_admins_groupandedit_usersI hope that makes sense. Each “Child Group” has the Capabilities of the “Parent Group” plus what you choose to add on.
