Question

I’d like to code something that is aware of specific wordpress user roles.
Does someone know the corresponding numbers for the roles below?

• Subscriber
• Administrator
• Editor
• Author
• Contributer

For example: who is level_0? Who is level_1?

Answer 1

From the codex

User Level 0 converts to Subscriber
User Level 1 converts to Contributor
User Level 2 converts to Author
User Level 3 converts to Editor
User Level 4 converts to Editor
User Level 5 converts to Editor
User Level 6 converts to Editor
User Level 7 converts to Editor
User Level 8 converts to Administrator
User Level 9 converts to Administrator
User Level 10 converts to Administrator
