Press Permit Core
Add to ListPublishPress Permissions is the plugin for advanced WordPress permissions. It goes far beyond the options you’ll find in the WordPress core. With PublishPress Permissions you can enable or block access to specific posts, pages, categories and other content on your site. You can apply these permissions for roles, individual users, and even custom groups.
There are too many features to mention in a short introduction, but here’s one example: PublishPress Permissions allows you to customize viewing and editing access for almost any content built on the WordPress post types platform. Open a Post, Page or custom post type, and you’ll be able to decide which roles, users or custom groups can view and edit that content.

Control Viewing Permissions for WordPress Content
PublishPress Permissions enables you to customize viewing access for WordPress content. Open any post and you’ll see a box with the label, “Permissions: Read this Post”. This box allows you to choose “Enabled” or “Blocked” for any user role or individual user. You can also set permissions for all users who are guests, and those who are logged in.

Control Editing Permissions for WordPress Content
PublishPress Permissions allows you to customize the editing permissions for all your content. Open a Post, Page, Category, Tag, or custom post type and you can decide who is allowed to edit that content.

Create Your Own User Groups
PublishPress Permissions allows you to create your own user groups. Imagine you want to give some users access to a single Post. Instead of creating a new user role and applying all the permissions, you can easily add those users to a group. This is a simple and more flexible alternative to user roles.

Manage Access to the Media Library
PublishPress Permissions gives you detailed control over access to media on your WordPress site. You decide who gets to edit and view files in your Media Library. For example, you can set up WordPress so that users only have access to files that they uploaded. Or you can add an exception so users can edit other people’s media files if they are attached to a post they can edit.

Show Content Teasers
PublishPress Permissions Pro allows you to display a teaser for unreadable content. This is perfect for making small snippets of your content available to the public. You can have teaser text that is publicly available, followed by private content that is only visible for your site’s users. If you choose to display a login form, the redirect will go to the originally requested content.

Automatically Create Posts for Users
This Pro feature allows you to automatically create content for your users. For example, you can sync your staff members to Pages. This would allow your staff to each have their own page to edit and update. You can use this feature to automatically create posts, WooCommerce products, or any other post type that is defined on your site.
