Use the hook code below:
add_filter('wpdiscuz_comment_list_args',function($args){
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$current_user_roles = (array)$current_user->roles;
if($args['can_user_reply'] && !in_array('administrator', $current_user_roles)){
if(!in_array('role_name', $current_user_roles)){
$args['can_user_reply'] = false;
}
}
return $args;
});
add_filter('preprocess_comment', function($commentdata){
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$current_user_roles = (array)$current_user->roles;
if($commentdata['comment_parent'] && !in_array('administrator', $current_user_roles)){
if(!in_array('role_name', $current_user_roles)){
wp_die('You don\'t have permission to comment.');
}
}
return $commentdata;
});
For administrators, the code works fine.
You should change the red marked value for the particular user role who should be able to reply.
