    I am trying to let a freelancer use my editor roll but when I login with the user i created it just takes me to the website and there is no admin panel. just a regular site?!

    I have also used PublishPress Capabilities but the only way I can get my freelance user role to work is if I set it to administrator and I don’t really want to do that.

    Thanks.

    Editors have a limited set of capabilities, but they can clearly access the backend (WP Admin) area, as long no other plugin, code or theme interrupts the default functionality of WordPress.
    You can read more about these roles’ capabilities here: https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/roles-and-capabilities/#editor

    Thus, I suspect some plugin you use (Potentially the mentioned “PublishPress Capabilities”) interferes with the native WordPress behaviour.
    You can try to switch theme, and/or disable plugins one by one until the issue is resolved.

    You should at least perform a full backup of the website before you do this, or, preferably, try it on a staging server.
