Description

Usage

Return Value

The filtered value.

Examples

<?php
/**
 * Adjust the permission required to update email templates.
 *
 * By default, only users with the 'manage_options' capability can update email templates.
 * This filter allows administrators to change that permission to something more restrictive
 * or more permissive if needed.
 *
 * Example: Grant permission to users who can 'edit_posts' instead of 'manage_options'.
 *
 * @param string $capability The current required capability.
 * @return string The modified capability.
 */
add_filter( 'email_template_update_permission', 'my_custom_email_template_permission', 10, 1 );

function my_custom_email_template_permission( $capability ) {
	// In this example, we are allowing users who can 'edit_posts' to update email templates.
	// This might be useful if you want to delegate this task to specific roles that don't
	// necessarily have full administrative access.
	//
	// IMPORTANT: Always consider the security implications when lowering permissions.
	//
	// If you want to keep the default, just return the original $capability.
	// if ( 'manage_options' === $capability ) {
	//     return $capability;
	// }

	// Example: Grant permission to users who can 'edit_posts'.
	// If you wanted to combine permissions, you might check and return an array,
	// but current_user_can() typically accepts a single capability string.
	// For complex scenarios, you'd need to build custom logic within the
	// current_user_can() check itself.

	// For this example, we'll simply replace 'manage_options' with 'edit_posts'
	// if the original capability was 'manage_options'.
	if ( 'manage_options' === $capability ) {
		return 'edit_posts';
	}

	// Otherwise, return the original capability to maintain default behavior
	// or any other modifications made by other plugins/themes.
	return $capability;
