wp-additional-editor-capabilities

Allow less technical clients to manage their Wordpress site without all the bloat in admin interface by giving them a slightly enhanced Editor/Shop Manager role.

This plugin grants the Editor role permissions to edit (non-admin) users and gives them access to Appearance menu items. For WooCommerce users, the Shop Manager role is granted access to Appearance menu as well. This should be everything a non-technical client needs to manage their site, with a pleasantly clean and empty admin interface.

For even better results, combine with WP-Cleanup.

Note that this plugin has not been tested thoroughly - patches and issues are welcome.
