## Description

#### Requires:

 * PHP 5.6 or higher
 * WordPress 4.7.x or higher
 * Press Permit Plugin

Please note that most recent version of Press Permit is recommended, as we will 
not test on older versions.

#### Plugin Description

SV Press Permit Converter Member Groups to Roles allows you to change from using
Press Permit’s probritary User Groups Model back to WordPress’ default User Roles
standard. As WordPress actually does allow multiple User Roles, most scenarios won’t
need a non-standard way for organizing members.

You will still be able to use content permissions feature through Press Permit, 
but with better support for third party plugins which usually won’t be compatible
with Press Permit’s custom user groups. You may want to use the [Multiple Roles](https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/multiple-roles/)
Plugin in future in addition to Press Permit.

Once you have converted the member’s groups to roles and stopped using Press Permit’s
user groups, you may safely uninstall this plugin and won’t need it anylonger.

Conversion process works with unlimited amount of members in your database and will
not break when browser window may be closed – just reopen conversion page and continue.
