  1. How can I add more user-capabilities?

    I’d like to restrict my clients, who get access to their project-boards, from editing stages and tasks.

    They should only be allowed to add comments & re-assign tasks.

    1. Hi Alina, To set someone as a board member, you need to assign them at least one of the WordPress user roles and then add them manually to your Board.
