## Description

**RoleVault** is a powerful WordPress role manager and user access control plugin
that gives you complete control over user roles, capabilities, content restrictions,
admin menus, sidebars, login/logout redirects and temporary role assignments.

Whether you are running a blog, membership site, e-commerce store, LMS or a multi-
author website, RoleVault helps you manage who can see what and do what on your 
WordPress site.

**Key Features:**

 * **Custom Role Editor** – Create, edit and delete custom WordPress user roles 
   with a searchable, tabbed capability matrix.
 * **Capability Manager** – Manage hundreds of WordPress and WooCommerce capabilities
   from one clean interface.
 * **Content Restriction** – Restrict posts, pages and custom post types by user
   role or specific capability.
 * **Admin Menu Visibility** – Hide admin menu items per role for a cleaner, safer
   dashboard.
 * **Sidebar / Widget Control** – Remove entire sidebars or widget areas for specific
   user roles.
 * **Login & Logout Redirects** – Set custom redirects for each role after login
   or logout.
 * **Temporary Roles** – Assign time-based temporary roles that expire automatically
   via cron.
 * **Role Preview** – Preview any role from the admin bar to test permissions in
   real time.
 * **WooCommerce / E-Commerce Ready** – Full support for WooCommerce product, order,
   coupon and report capabilities.
 * **Shortcode Support** – Use `[rolevault_restrict role="editor" capability="manage_options"
   message="Members only."]` to protect any content.
 * **Modern UI** – Clean, responsive dashboard with cards, toggles and tabbed navigation.

RoleVault is a flexible WordPress role manager for developers, agencies and site
owners who need role-based access control without writing custom code.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `rolevault` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‚Plugins‘ menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to **Users -> RoleVault** to start managing roles and access.

## FAQ

### Can I create unlimited custom roles?

Yes. You can create as many custom roles as you need and assign any combination 
of capabilities.

### Does this plugin work with WooCommerce?

Yes. RoleVault supports all WooCommerce capabilities including products, orders,
coupons, reports and custom product terms.

### Can I restrict a single page or post?

Yes. Use the **RoleVault Access Control** meta box on any post, page or custom post
type.

### What happens when a temporary role expires?

A built-in cron job automatically removes expired temporary roles and cleans user
meta.

### Is it safe to delete a custom role?

Yes, but users with that role will lose those capabilities. Default WordPress roles
cannot be deleted.
