How to update Custom Capability in batch

Hello, I hope to update Custom Capability (my WP user name) in batch to some of my current clients, so that they can access certain pages I created.

Can you please show me a few lines of codes how I can assign Custom Capability to current users in batch? (I can do a SQL query to pull out the WP users I want to assign Custom Capability to, and then?) Many thanks.

Any key code lines I’m missing?

$user = get_userdata($user_id);
$ccap = “access_s2member_ccap_”.$my_user_name;
$user->add_cap($ccap);

Hi Lan,

The WordPress Codex Function Reference page for add_cap() has an example for adding a ccap to a user:

//to add capability to specific user
$user = new WP_User( $user_id );
$user->add_cap( 'can_edit_posts');
