 * Hi there,
 * I have a custom role I would like to be able to add Temporary Logins. What capabilities
   does this role need to have in order to access the plugin functionalities?
 * Thanks!

 * Hi,
 * Only Administrators have access to use full functionalities of Temporary Login
   Without Password plugin.
 * Even temporary administrator can’t use full functionalities of Temporary Login
   Without Password plugin.
 * Hope that helps.

 * Hi there,
 * Thanks for your reply.
 * So it is based on the role itself rather than capabilities of that role? I can’t
   give any other role (e.g. a custom role) capabilities that would allow the use
   of the plugin in WP admin?
 * Many thanks,
    Luther

 * Hi Luther,
 * No. It’s not like that.
 * Temporary user will get all access except few restricted functionalities like(
   add, edit users, delete temporary login plugin etc..).
 * So, if you are creating a temporary user with XYZ role, it will have access to
   all features XYZ role have.
 * Hope that helps.

 * Sorry, I don’t think I made myself clear. I understand about the abilities temporary
   users will have (they will be based on whatever role I give temporary users).
 * What I would like is for a role other than Administrator to be able to CREATE
   temporary logins.
 * Say if I duplicate the Administrator role and call it ‘Manager’ – will this new
   Manager role be able to CREATE temporary logins using the plugin functions?

 * Hi Luther,
 * Sorry..it’s not possible.
 * Any temporary user with any role (even administrator) can’t create temporary 
   login for others.
 * Hope that helps.
