This allows plugins to easily hijack the default role while they’re active.
// Hijack the option, the role will follow!
add_filter('pre_option_default_role', function($default_role){
// You can also add conditional tags here and return whatever
return 'subscriber'; // This is changed
return $default_role; // This allows default
});
I use it to make sure some plugins that need subscriber roles get it regardless of Administrator attempts to change 🙂
