Actually you should be able to do it within the role manager if it’s installed and activated.
admin -> users -> roles -> scroll down to “creat a new role”
Create a “subscribe2” role and give the editor group priveleges.
You mean create “Custom Capability?” Creating a role wouldn’t make sense, since it’s not a new role I want it’s a new capability.
Certainly someone out there has come across this issue of wanting to grant certain roles certain features in the admin panel. Role manager is great, but I don’t understand how to extend it to add plugin support.
Hello? Anyone? Role Manager? Anyone?
I had the same problem. I searched a bit and found:

If the line numbers are not the same anymore, look for the string “manage_options” in the source code. I guess this is what you need to change to whatever capability you want. However, I have not tried it.
Good luck.
