    Hi,

    Could you recommend a plugin that would do the following?

    Manage user access based on user’s role. For instance, instructors would have access to instructor’s account page, students would have access to student’s account page but not to each other’s.

    I could find basic user management plugin but not any that could achieve what I need to do here.

    Sorry I know this is not specifically theme related question but need some expert advice since the theme does not come with any user management function.

    Thank you,

    Dude

    I’m not sure if it will do what you want but this plugin: http://wordpress.org/plugins/groups/ allows you to restrict the access to certain pages/areas by creating groups with custom capabilities. You can assign users to the groups and then add capabilities to the group. The logic is very flexible because you’re not limited to membership levels but you have full control over all capabilities of the group members.

    Peter,

    You are really a guru!

    Thanks! this is what I have been looking for. The only strange thing after installing it is that I got two Chat Consoles in the dashboard for the Chat plugin that I bought from http://codecanyon.net/item/wordpress-live-chat-plugin-for-sales-and-support/3952877. I have opened a case to ask the Chat plugin author.

    Thank you!
