You can change any standard WordPress user role (except administrator) with a few clicks. Just turn on check boxes of capabilities you wish to add to the selected role and click "Update" button to save your changes. That's done. In case you made some unneccessary change you always have the "Reset" button to restore roles state from the automatically made backup copy. Add new roles and customize its capabilities according to your needs. Unnecessary self-made role can be deleted if there are no users whome such role is assigned.
