User Role for Editing

Hi @tekno-ziz

The Shop Manager role added by WooCommerce allows the user to run the operations side of your WooCommerce store without the ability to edit back-end functionality like files and code. A manager has the same permissions as a customer, plus they’re also granted the ability to manage all settings within WooCommerce, create/edit products, and access all WooCommerce reports. They also have access to the WordPress editor capabilities.

You can read more about user roles and security here:

https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/roles-capabilities/

If you need to change any capabilities of roles, there are plugins that allow for this, such as User Role Editor.

Hope this helps to explain further.

We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
