Okay I had to change it a bit:

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: Add custom usergroups

Description: Adds custom usergroups

Author: fel64, farly

*/

add_filter('get_roles', 'add_custom_usergroups');



function add_custom_usergroups( $roles ) {



//define custom groups



//$groups['GROUPNAME'] = array('CAPABILITIES LIKE','HUMAN GROUPNAME', array(EXTRA CAPABILITY, EXTRA CAPABILITY));



$groups['probemitglied'] = array('member','Mitglied auf Probe', array());

$groups['mitglied'] = array('member','Mitglied', array());

$groups['kernmitglied'] = array('member','Kernmitglied', array());

$groups['koordinator'] = array('moderator','Koordinator', array());

$groups['leiter'] = array('administrator','Leiter', array());



foreach ($groups as $key => $g) {

$roles[$key] = $roles[$g[0]]; //duplicate member capabilities

$roles[$key]['name'] = __($g[1]); // change name

foreach( $g[2] as $capability ) {

$roles[$key]['capabilities'][$capability] = true; // add extra capabilities

}

}

return $roles;

}

?>

Thanks!

I modified this approach slightly and ended up with this:

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: Add custom usergroups

Description: Adds custom usergroups

Author: fel64, farly

*/

add_filter('get_roles', 'add_custom_usergroups');



function add_custom_usergroups( $roles ) {



//define custom groups

$groups['mitglied_probe'] = array('Mitglied auf Probe', array('rulord_level1'));

$groups['mitglied'] = array('Mitglied', array('rulord_level1', 'rulord_level2'));

$groups['kernmitglied'] = array('Kernmitglied', array('rulord_level1', 'rulord_level2', 'rulord_level3'));

$groups['koordinator'] = array('Koordinator', array('rulord_level1', 'rulord_level2', 'rulord_level3', 'rulord_level4'));

$groups['leiter'] = array('Leiter', array('rulord_level1', 'rulord_level2', 'rulord_level3', 'rulord_level4', 'rulord_level5'));



foreach ($groups as $key => $g) {

$roles[$key] = $roles['member']; //duplicate member capabilities

$roles[$key] =& $user[$key]; //convenience

$user[$key]['name'] = __($g[0]);

foreach( $g[1] as $capability ) {

$user[$key]['capabilities'][$capability] = true;

}

}

return $roles;



}

?>

It works for me so far
