# Permitted Users, Etc.

 * How can I assign certain Users the permission to add and delete events on the
   MEC Lite version?
 * I would like to change the settings of the app. I used to be able to but now 
   a message says I don’t have permission to view that page. Strange.
 * Thanks

 * Hello [@engine44](https://wordpress.org/support/users/engine44/),
 * Actually, this is not in MEC control, you need to set custom role for your users,
   or use the default [WordPress role](https://wordpress.org/support/article/roles-and-capabilities/#capability-vs-role-table),
   please follow the steps explained in this article:

 * Thank you. As I mentioned above I am no longer able to access the Settings area.

 * Hello [@engine44](https://wordpress.org/support/users/engine44/),
 * If you have an issue with the admin role and you didn’t access the settings menu,
   you can install the user role manager plugin and set “enabled” for access to 
   the settings.
 * But if you have an issue with another WordPress role and you didn’t access settings,
   make sure your user has the right access to the other options. Some users do 
   not have the capability to edit or access settings and others, please check this
   table: [https://wordpress.org/support/article/roles-and-capabilities/#capability-vs-role-table](https://wordpress.org/support/article/roles-and-capabilities/#capability-vs-role-table)
 * Anyway, you can manage all your users’ access to the WordPress menu with the 
   Role Manager plugins.

 * Important Note: Before using these types of plugins, check for possible risks
   and potential problems that they may cause.

 * I use the PublishPress Capabilities plugin to manage roles. All capabilities 
   are “on” for the admin. I still can’t access Settings. I could access it when
   I first downloaded the app. Shouldn’t the feature work automatically without 
   a plugin? Thanks.

 * I loaded and activated the plugin. Admin is granted complete access. Still can’t
   get into your settings page.
