## Descripción

### Comment Moderation Role by WPBeginner

This comment moderation plugin improves the comment moderation permissions on your
WordPress site.

The new role “WPB Comment Moderator” is created on your site to allow you to give
users access only to the comment moderation screen. Unlike the WordPress default
settings, a comment moderator is not required to be able to author posts, so you
can keep your content secure.

The Comment Moderator can approve, decline, or edit any comments on any post.

This plugin also allows your Authors and Contributors to moderate comments on the
posts they wrote. That means your guest authors can continue interacting with their
readers, without getting access to other articles or comments.

### How Do I Create a Comment Moderator User?

Once this plugin is activated, simply edit a user’s profile and change their role
to WPB Comment Moderator. This will grant them access only to the comment moderation
screens within WordPress, keeping the rest of your site secure.

### Credits

Comment Moderation Role is created by the [WPBeginner](https://www.wpbeginner.com/)
team.

## Instalación

 1. Install the Comment Moderation Role plugin by uploading the `comment-moderation-
    role` directory to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory. (See instructions on [how to install a WordPress plugin](https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/step-by-step-guide-to-install-a-wordpress-plugin-for-beginners/).)
 2. Activate Comment Moderation Role through the `Plugins` menu in WordPress.

## FAQ

### How is this different from WordPress’s moderate_comments permission?

In order to moderate all comments, WordPress requires the user have permission to
both edit posts and moderate comments. This plugin removes the requirement for a
user to have both permissions.

### Are there filters for developers?

Yes, the roles and capabilities used by this plugin can be modified by filters.

Filters should be run prior to the `plugins_loaded` hook running. As a result they
can not be added to a theme’s functions.php file.

The default moderator capability is Core’s `moderate_comments`. This can be replaced
with any string using the filter `wpb.comment_moderation_role.moderator_cap`.

Example:

    ```
    <?php
    add_filter(
        'wpb.comment_moderation_role.moderator_cap',
        function() { return 'wpb_moderate_comments'; }
    );
    ```

The default moderator role is displayed in the admin as `WPB Comment Moderator`.
This can be replaced with any string using the filter `wpb.comment_moderation_role.
moderator_role_name`.

Example:

    ```
    <?php
    add_filter(
        'wpb.comment_moderation_role.moderator_role_name',
        function() { return 'WPB Support Staff'; }
    );
    ```

The default moderator role’s slug is `wpb_comment_moderator`. This can be replaced
with any string using the filter `wpb.comment_moderation_role.moderator_role_slug`.

Example:

    ```
    <?php
    add_filter(
        'wpb.comment_moderation_role.moderator_role_slug',
        function() { return 'wpb_support_staff'; }
    );
    ```

Hi! Good job on this plugin! It works perfectly! I was wondering, if we have posts
with “draft” status, how can we approve/moderate them?

Installed & checked . Definitely useful plugin if you are a blogger & the blogger
can give the comment access who wants someone to manage only to moderate comments.
No other access options for moderator. Short & simple.
