Question About Role Management, Need Clarification

  • I’m not sure whether there is a good plugin for this or if it is even doable. I am already using Ultimate Member so if a plugin is suggested as a solution, it needs to work with UM as this is the option I use to set user roles in the membership hierarchy.

    My question is regarding assigning a user role for Team Leader, and allowing this group the ability to sign up new members into their team, automatically assigning them to a lower user role, e.g. “Team Member”…

    I want team leaders to sign up their own team members and for those members to show as part of that leader’s team.

    So I am wondering if there is a good free plugin for this or if the method is to use the role permissions to allow everyone with that designation the ability to add new members. Which permission does this?

    Edit_users
    Create_users
    Delete_users
    List_users
    Promote_users

    A combination of any of the above? None of the above? They only need to be able to add new members under their team, they should not be able to delete any members or edit them or anything else. Just adding them…this way I don’t have to do it all manually on their behalf. I’m looking for an automatic sign up solution that puts them under that team leader.

    Also, I am aware that allowing the authorization to add new members can be potentially problematic, however, for my purposes, it isn’t some wild west free for all. The team leaders are trusted and this is not an actual issue for this particular case. It is for the purpose of a friendly competition to see how many new team members they can recruit for our tournament.

    Thank you for letting me describe this 15 different ways lol.

    Thank you for responding but that was not really relevant to the question.

    Hi
    I hope you asked for a plugin that allows to edit user roles. Like assigning a role to the Team Leader and much more.

    This plugin allows you to create new user roles and assign different capabilities to the user.
    Likewise you can create a new user role called “Team Leader” and assign the capability of creating new users. And assigning them into a lower user role like Member,or much more.

    In this plugin team leaders can sign up their own team but to show as a part of that leader’s team then you have to use HR or ERP type plugin where the team leader can create or view a team and the team members can see that in which team they are, and who is the team leader.

    ERP type plugin will be a good one for team leader management.

    I hope your query is solved. If not don’t hesitate to reach back.

    I am already using Ultimate Member to assign roles.

    Maybe a better way to convey the question, after giving it some thought, is that I have Ultimate Member assigning membership roles, say free and premium, and group leader, and the group leaders are authorized to create a group and then assign other premium members into that group, or have premium members be able to join any specific group…or to have group leaders be able to register premium members into premium member roles and they are automatically assigned to that leader’s group.

    That’s the gist of what I am trying to do. It seems default options above for permissions is too broad so maybe a group or team sort of thing that lets the leaders add members is what I am looking for.

    Tried searching but everything coming up is basically how to make a page that displays groups, not to add or register the members and assign to groups.

    Hi
    Even I searched for a similar plugin you asked for, but the capabilities you are looking is not available in a single plugin.

    May I know what type of website you are running, so I can recommend a plugin based on your requirements.

    It is a membership site.

    I have 3 member roles. Only one of those is what I would like to authorized to create new registrations for one of the other member roles, and have all the people that user has registered be assigned to that user.

    I may not be able to accomplish this given wordpress registration set up so the next best thing is to register all member roles normally and then implement a groups option that allows the selected user to create their own group and assign or invite specific members to join it, and / or allow members to select their preferred group. This is basically setting up teams and team leaders within the register user base.
