New role not appearing in Author dropdown on edit pages

Having this issue as well.

I think I figured it out, had to change the level to have it show up.

The role level can be set using the dropdown at the bottom of the role editing screen.

in the previous version before 1.5.x my woocommerce shopmanager can change the user roles and custom roles that I (admin) created but after update the shopmanager capabilities cannot change or edit custom roles :
– cannot see roles
– cannot edit a user within a custom role
– and some limitation to woocommerce settings

plz help me
thaaankssss ??

The shop manager’s role level will need to have its role level set higher than the other roles you want it to manage. Your site Administrator can set this at the bottom of the Roles and Capabilities screen.

This safeguard was not consistently applied prior to CME version 1.5.4

My ‘Shop Manager’ has role level ‘9’ and all the other (custom) users have ‘0’. But with the shop manager loged in I am only able to choose role ‘Customer’ for new users. The same when I try to change the role for an existing user.
Any ideas?

I solved it by adding this to my functions.php:

function myextension_shop_manager_role_edit_capabilities( $roles ) {
  $roles[] = 'custom-role-1';
  $roles[] = 'custom-role-2';
  $roles[] = 'custom-role-3';

  return $roles;
};
add_filter( 'woocommerce_shop_manager_editable_roles', 'myextension_shop_manager_role_edit_capabilities' );

While ‘custom-role-x’ is the slag of my custom role
