Description

Fetch a filtered list of user roles that the current user is allowed to edit.

Simple function whose main purpose is to allow filtering of the list of roles in the $wp_roles object so that plugins can remove inappropriate ones depending on the situation or user making edits. Specifically because without filtering anyone with the edit_users capability can edit others to be administrators, even if they are only editors or authors. This filter allows admins to delegate user management.

Usage

$array[] = get_editable_roles();

Parameters

Returns

array[] Array of arrays containing role information.

Source

File name: wordpress/wp-admin/includes/user.php
Lines:

function get_editable_roles() {
  $all_roles = wp_roles()->roles;

  
/**
 * Filters the list of editable roles.
 *
 * @since 2.8.0
 *
 * @param array[] $all_roles Array of arrays containing role information.
 */
  $editable_roles = apply_filters( 'editable_roles', $all_roles );

  return $editable_roles;
}
