Administrators
Coach permissions
The WordPress coach role (Sessions Pro) controls what a coach can do without being a site administrator.
Configuration: Joolweb Sessions Pro → Settings → Permissions section (dedicated Permissions page depending on version).
Only a WordPress administrator can modify these rights.
Main capabilities

|---|---|
view_clients | View client list |
create_clients | Create clients |
edit_clients | Edit clients |
delete_clients | Delete clients |
edit_sessions | Manage sessions |

Multi-coach isolation
By default, a coach accesses:
- Clients assigned to them
- Or with at least one session with that coach
A coach does not see other coaches' clients and sessions (except WP administrator).
WordPress administrator
- Full access to all data
- Coach home (administrator) option in Settings:
- All sessions — see all sessions
- Only sessions I created — coach-like behavior
See Admin dashboard.
