600 users with access to each their page only

    I’m a long time wordpress-user for personal blogs. Now I’m on a bigger mission, and not sure where to start. I need for about 600 people to have each their page, made from a template, which I will probably have some theme-developer custom make.

    The more pressing issue is this:
    Imagine me having to update these 600 pages. No? Me neither. I want for each user to have editing access to their page only, and not the other 599 pages or any other WP functionality (that’d really mess things up). All pages should be visible to the public, so there are no private posts here, just editing limitations.

    Short question: Is this the right plugin for such a site? How would i set it up?

    You can do that as follows:

    1. define the create capability for pages
    2. give the users a WP Role which includes edit_pages and edit_published_pages but not create_pages (or if you prefer, a supplemental RS role of Page Author)
    3. create the pages and set the appropriate post_author
