    I created a new “user”Role” via the “Add Role” feature. It was a copy of the shop manager role, and I edited the capabilities as required.

    Then for a user, I edited the role and assigned it the newly created role.

    However, the user is now only seeing what a “Customer” would on logging in, and not the capabilities assigned it to.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    I suppose, that user is redirected to the front-end after login. Please confirm.

    Add to your custom role the ‘view_admin_dashboard’ user capability. 1st, add capability, then add to the role. WC doesn’t create this capability by default but uses it in order allow user without some another capabilities direct access to wp-admin.

    Thank you for the fast response. The user is able to view the dashboard now.

    However, none of the capabilities assigned are displaying. They are giving an error. I have uploaded screenshots of the capabilities selected, and the error message displaying. The link to view them is this:

    It would be great if you would help with this. Thank you

    Tests showed that these capabilities are required to look at the “Analythics”:
    edit_others_shop_orders
    edit_shop_orders
    read
    view_admin_dashboard
    view_woocommerce_reports
    Pay attention that it’s not possible to grant user the read-only access using WP/WC built-in functionality only. You have to 1st grant edit access, then block editing menu items using external tools.

    Thank you.

    These capabilities now display the details required.

    Would you know which tools can block edit access and only keep view access?

    Is this something planned in the future releases of yoru module?
