I was recently working on a piece of code that will:
- create as special user role
- allow that user role to insert HTML comments on posts (specifically we needed images and links) from wp-admin
If I was commenting like admin, all was good – the comment with image was getting published. But if instead I was commenting using that user role, unfortunately all the HTML got stripped.
After some debugging inside WordPress, I found the culprit, which, by the way, it’s a feature of WordPress – the unfiltered_html capability for my user role. Basically if you have a newly defined user role that you want to be able to insert HTML in comments, you have to add that capability to your new user role. Here’s the simple snippet:
Once again, the best documentation for WordPress is the actual source code.
Follow the code and you will see the light 🙂
