User Teams Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
On a large multisite network, granting a group of people the same role across many sites usually means adding each user to each site by hand — and remembering to remove them everywhere when they leave. User Teams turns that into:
- Create a team, pick a role.
- Add the user to the team.
- They have that role everywhere the team applies.
- Remove them from the team access is gone everywhere.
User Teams is multisite-only by design — on a single-site install, native WordPress roles and capabilities already cover the whole feature set, so WordPress won’t offer it for activation there.
Features
- Teams with roles. Each team carries a WordPress role (editor, administrator, a custom role, or none).
- Runtime capability grants. Team access is added via the
user_has_capfilter, so removing a user from a team drops their access on the next request — no stale capabilities usermeta to clean up. - Multisite-native. Team definitions are real
wp_usersrows (“team accounts”), soWP_Users_List_Table,is_user_member_of_blog(), and every column-adding plugin “just work”. - Site scoping. A team can apply network-wide (including sites added later) or to a specific list of sites, each with its own role.
- Admin UI. Network Admin Users Teams. Per-user checkboxes on the Edit User screen. Team rows with “— Team” markers on the Users list table.
- Cleans up after itself. Deleting a team removes its memberships. Deleting a user drops their memberships. Deleting a site removes its grants from any team that targeted it.
How access is granted
Team-derived capabilities are merged in at runtime, never written into the member user’s own meta:
user_has_cap— adds the team role’s capabilities to the user’s effective caps, plusrole-{slug}for plugins that check by role.get_blogs_of_user— adds team-linked sites to the user’s “My Sites” navigation.get_user_metadata— returns an empty-array{prefix}{blog_id}_capabilitiesfor team members sois_user_member_of_blog()returns true without stamping real capabilities on the user. Workaround for Core #65096.
The user’s actual {prefix}capabilities usermeta is never modified. That’s what makes team-based access instantly revocable.
Capability requirements
- Managing teams (create / edit / delete) requires
manage_network_users— super admin only. - Attaching an existing team to the current site uses
promote_users, the same cap as inviting an individual user there.
Team management is restricted to super admins so a compromised single-site admin can’t grant themselves access across the network.
Extension filters
user_teams_team_caps_for_user( $caps, $user_id, $blog_id )— modify the capability map computed from a user’s teams.user_teams_team_applies_to_site( $applies, $team_id, $blog_id, $team )— gate coverage (e.g. pause a team during a freeze).user_teams_team_save_data( $data, $team_id_or_null, $op )— filter sanitised input on create/update.
