SleekView for Members Management Pro: roles, capabilities & users as tables
Members Management Pro extends WordPress roles and capabilities, storing the catalogue in wp_options and assignments in wp_usermeta. SleekView reads both so you can audit who has which role and capability from one screen.

Role and capability ops without per-user clicks
Members Management Pro (and the Members plugin family more broadly) extends WordPress' built-in role and capability system. Role definitions live in wp_options under wp_user_roles, custom capabilities are added to the same option as they're created, and per-user role plus capability assignments are stored as serialised arrays in wp_usermeta under wp_capabilities. Content-restriction add-ons write protection rules to wp_postmeta on the protected post.
The default WordPress Users screen shows the primary role per user, hides custom capabilities, and gives no view of which roles inherit which capabilities. The Members plugin's role-editor screen is excellent for editing one role, but doesn't surface "which users have this capability" as a one-click view. Capability audits become manual: open the role editor, note the capability list, then cross-check the user list for each role.
SleekView reads wp_user_roles as a navigable role catalogue, exposes user-to-role assignments from wp_capabilities meta as a proper join, and builds the reverse view (which users have capability X) automatically. Multi-role assignments, custom capabilities, and content-restriction rules all surface as filterable columns.

Default Members Management Pro admin
- "Which users have capability X?" isn't a built-in view
- Multi-role assignments aren't surfaced on the Users screen
-
Custom capabilities live in serialised
wp_capabilitiesmeta - Bulk role changes go through the standard role dropdown one row at a time
- Content-restriction rule audits need per-post drilldowns
SleekView
-
Reverse audit:
users with capability Xas a saved filter - Multi-role assignments rendered as a column
- Custom capabilities visible inline per user
- Bulk role and capability updates via the Members API
- Save views per role (admin, security, audit)
Features
What SleekView gives you for Members Management Pro
Capability reverse audit
Pick a capability (built-in or custom) and see every user who inherits it through any role. Surfaces the long-tail of users who shouldn't still have administrative access.
Multi-role rendering
Users with multiple roles render with all roles visible inline. Sort by role count to find users who accumulated permissions across multiple campaigns.
Bulk role and capability writes
Update a role or grant a custom capability across a multi-row selection. Writes go through the Members API so any registered capability-sync hooks fire.
Audience
Who uses SleekView for Members Management Pro
Security ops
Periodic audit of administrative capabilities. Reverse-lookup who has manage_options or edit_users, document for compliance, revoke from inactive accounts.
Site admins
Multi-role and custom-capability overview per user. Spot users who should be subscribers but accumulated editor permissions during a campaign, and clean up inline.
Audit
Capability-trail documentation for compliance reviews. Per-user role and capability list, exportable as CSV, with capability counts inline for the audit summary.
The bigger picture
Why capability ops need row-level views
WordPress' role and capability system is powerful and well-architected. The default admin then exposes it through the lens of one user, one role at a time. That works for adding a new editor but fails for the operational questions security and compliance teams actually ask: who has administrative capabilities across all roles, which capabilities are granted by which roles, which users accumulated permissions they shouldn't still hold.
Members Management Pro extends the system in useful ways (custom capabilities, multi-role assignments, content restriction) but inherits the same row-by-row admin pattern. SleekView turns the capability system into a workspace: users joined to roles, roles joined to capabilities, with a reverse view that picks a capability and surfaces every user who inherits it. Security ops run periodic audits in minutes instead of hours; site admins clean up role drift in bulk; compliance teams export full capability trails as audit artifacts.
The data model was always the right shape. It just needed an operational interface that respects how teams actually work.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView for Members Management Pro
Yes. Content-restriction rules live as postmeta on the protected post. SleekView exposes the rules as a separate view, joinable to roles for the audit "which roles can read this content type."
Yes. Writes route through the Members API so capability-sync hooks fire on each change. Bulk-grant or bulk-revoke works across a multi-row selection.
WordPress supports multi-role assignments and Members Management Pro makes them easy to manage. SleekView renders all assigned roles as a comma-separated column or as repeated rows, depending on the view config.
Yes. SleekView paginates queries and uses the indexes WordPress maintains on wp_users and wp_usermeta. Sites with hundreds of thousands of users render the reverse-capability audit without admin lag.
Yes. Capabilities created via the Members role editor land in the standard wp_user_roles option and per-user wp_capabilities meta. SleekView reads them like any built-in capability, no extra config needed.
Yes. SleekView traces each capability back through the user's roles and surfaces the role-of-origin as a separate column. Useful when the same capability is granted by multiple roles and you need to know which one to edit.
Yes. Any SleekView view exports to CSV or JSON, including the joined user-role-capability data. Standard format for handing audit artifacts to compliance reviewers.
Yes. On Multisite, capability state is per-site and SleekView reads the per-site view by default. Network-wide super-admin capabilities surface as a separate filter for network-level audits.
