Tools
Users and roles

User management tools cover the full account lifecycle on a WordPress site — creating, editing, deleting, role assignment, and password reset triggers.

What’s included

  • wp_list_users — filter by role, registration date, last activity.
  • wp_get_user — single user by ID or email.
  • wp_create_user — create with role, password (optional — WordPress generates one), and triggers the standard welcome email.
  • wp_update_user — edit display name, email, role, custom user meta.
  • wp_delete_user — with optional re-assignment of their content to another user.
  • wp_change_user_role — promote / demote.
  • wp_trigger_password_reset — sends the WordPress reset email.
  • wp_list_application_passwords — see all Application Passwords for a user (useful for cleanup).
  • wp_revoke_application_password — revoke a specific Application Password by name.

Common prompts

  • “Add a new Editor user with email [email protected].”
  • “Change John’s role from Subscriber to Author.”
  • “List all Application Passwords on my admin user — revoke the one called ‘Old Laptop.’”
  • “Show me users who registered in the last 30 days but have never logged in.”
