  1. Paste this code in your themes function.php file and customize as your need. This is from my own code library. So it will definitely work.

    /* Add member role to the site */
add_role('member', 'Member', array(
    'read' => true,
    'edit_posts' => true,
    'delete_posts' => true,
));

/* Add snypher role to the site */
add_role('snypher', 'Snypher', array(
    'read' => true,
    'edit_posts' => true,
    'delete_posts' => true,
));

/* remove the unnecessary roles */
remove_role('subscriber');
remove_role('editor');
remove_role('author');
remove_role('contributor');
