Directory of users, listing with the role

[valeriosza]

It took me a list of users, with a large site with many levels to know what are administrators, a simple list and still continue seeing the other functions.

I take it you want to sort by role name, which is not exactly feasible on the query level. Did you test your patch? I would be quite shocked if it worked as-is.

Also note that users can actually have more than one role.

I sent the patch because I talked to several people, at least for us with large-scale sites was great need for sites with more than 400 users. The filter option does not allow show managers and employees at the same time, for example.

The patch doesn't work as expected.

It makes the Role column sortable, and orderby=role is then added to the URL, but WP_User_Query cannot order by role, so it falls back to sorting by user_login: tags/3.7.1/src/wp-includes/user.php#L421​.

This can probably be implemented in a plugin though. manage_users_sortable_columns and pre_user_query filters might be helpful.
