Export roles and import to a new role

[pixelcrash]

Hi there, I have around 15 types of roles (because of WPML / Toolset and 15 languages)
I would like to export one role and then import it at another role

f.e.
editor_poland (has all correct settings) -> Export -> poland.dat
change to editor_spain -> import

But it only imports the editor_poland
any change to apply the same capabilities to the another role?

Hi,

Exported file contains role ID/name inside.

Workaround – after you import role editor_poland, click ‘Add Role’, input new ID, name, and select “editor_poland” at the “Make copy of” drop-down list. That’s it.

Is there also a workaround if you already have all the roles created?

Unfortunately, No. Or just delete theme and create again as a copy of existing one.
