WP_User::add_cap( string $cap, bool $grant = true )
Adds capability and grant or deny access to capability.
Parameters
-
$capstring Required -
Capability name.
-
$grantbool Optional -
Whether to grant capability to user.
Default:
true
More Information
Changing the capabilities of a user is persistent, meaning the added capability will stay in effect until explicitly revoked.
This setting is saved to the database (in table wp_options, field wp_user_roles), so it might be better to run this on theme/plugin activation.
