WordPress user roles that are compatible with the Multicollab Plugin:

• Superadmin

The Superadmin has full permissions related to any action (viewing, moderating, adding, deleting, resolving) on comments, mentions, and replies on any post and page.

• Administrator

Administrators can view, edit, delete, reply to, and resolve Multicollab comments on any post and page.

• Editor

Editors can view, edit, delete, reply to, and resolve Multicollab comments on any posts and page by anyone within your WordPress website.

• Author

Authors have full rights related to the pages and posts they have created on their own, or the ones with edit permissions enabled for them.

• Contributor

Similar to Authors, contributors have the full rights to their posts only. They can add, edit, delete, reply, and resolve Multicollab comments only on the posts that they create.
