How Do I Get User Roles in WooCommerce?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 11:52 pm

As the administrator of a WooCommerce store, you have the ability to assign user roles to your customers. This can be useful if you want to give certain customers access to certain features or areas of your store that you don’t want everyone to have access to. For example, you might want to give your top customers a role that allows them to see special pricing that isn’t available to everyone.

Or, you might want to give a role that allows a customer to leave reviews on products. There are many different user roles that you can assign in WooCommerce, and you can even create your own custom roles if needed. In this article, we’ll show you how to get started with assigning user roles in WooCommerce.

First, you need to log into your WordPress Dashboard and go to WooCommerce > Settings. On the Settings page, go to the Accounts tab and then click on the Users tab.

PRO TIP: If you are not a developer, do not attempt to get user roles in WooCommerce as you could break your site. This is an advanced topic for developers only.

On the Users tab, you’ll see a list of all the users who have registered on your WooCommerce store. To edit a user’s role, simply click on the Edit link next to their name.

On the Edit User page, scroll down to the User Role section. By default, all users are given the customer role.

However, you can change this by selecting a different role from the drop-down menu. Once you’ve made your selection, click on the Update User button to save your changes.

That’s all there is to it! Assigning user roles in WooCommerce is easy and only takes a few minutes. By doing so, you can give your customers access to features and areas of your store that they wouldn’t otherwise have access to.
