    I have been struggling with this for about 2 weeks now and I really could use some help,
    All I am trying to do is create “User Manager” role which allows this role to simply Add and Edit Users. I have set all the required permissions but when I log in as this user and click on the add new user button on the dashboard bar it just redirects me to the home page.

    I use The events calendar and would also like to allow this user to create,edit,delete events

    Please tell me what I am doing wrong because this is driving me insane

    Here is a screenshot of this user role

    You select right capabilities.

    Is it single site or multisite WordPress installation?

    WordPress does not redirect user to other link itself. Some plugin could do this. Check if you did not set some additional restriction for this user or his role.

    You could block access to admin menu item, for example, and user could be redirected from this link as a result.

    Hello Vladimir,

    Do you know of any conflicts with the plugin Ultimate Member?

    I am unsure if I am missing any of the permissions I included what I have set for the new role in my original post if you follow the imgur link.

    The user can log in and see the dashboard mini bar when viewing the site but cannot get the /wp-admin page.

    Do you use WooCommerce?

    Hi Valdimir,

    Yes I do use WooCommerce but I do not want this user to have access to the store front

    Hi,

    WooCommerce redirects user to front-end after login. To exclude such redirection you have to grant to a user role edit_posts or manage_woocommerce or view_admin_dashboard capability.
