You may add this page url anywhere in your site. * Thread Starter [sprocker](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sprocker/) * (@sprocker) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/role-manager-10/#post-13391986) * What is the URL – do I have to create a “Vendor Registration” page with a shortcode? * I would really rather allow the shop manager to be able to change the role of the user from customer to Store Vendor – what permissions does the store manager need to be able to change this? * Nothing I have tried works – other than Admin, but then that gives them ALL options which is leaving the site open to mistakes and people being given the wrong role and too much control! * Thanks * Plugin Author [WC Lovers](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wclovers/) * (@wclovers) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/role-manager-10/#post-13400512) * > What is the URL – do I have to create a “Vendor Registration” page with a shortcode? * – NO, this page automatically created during WCFM plugin installation. * Check at WCFM Admin Setting – Dashboard Pages – is “Registration” page set over there or not?
