User Role Editor plugin handles multiple roles for a user:
http://wordpress.org/plugins/user-role-editor
Once installed, Users > under each user is Capabilities option.
URE treats the first WP role as "primary role" and allows you to add "other roles".

Check this plugin. I've used it and it's quite versatile regarding user roles and user capabilities.
You can also add conditional statements in your php files, like this:
if (!current_user_can('some_capability_you_added')) {
echo "You don't have permission for it!";
return;
}
You can output that sentence or nothing at all.

You can detect the user from where it comes.like ( for google)
<?php
if (strpos($_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER], "google") == true) {
echo "Hello Google User!";
}
?>
so try it
<?php if (current_user_can(‘subscriber’) || strpos($_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER], "google") == true) { ?>
[content here]
<?php } ?>

You could also do this,
function mod_redirect_subscriber_delete($user_id) {
$user = get_user_by('id', $user_id);
$role = $user->roles[0];
if ($role == 'subscriber') {
add_action("deleted_user", function(){
wp_redirect( admin_url('/index.php') );
exit;
});
}
}
add_action("delete_user", "mod_redirect_subscriber_delete");

a) delete_user hook:
Here is one idea:
Add this into your code to delete the user:
remove_action("delete_user", "mod_redirect_subscriber_delete");
wp_delete_user($user_id);
where we remove the action callback to prevent it calling it self again.
So your code becomes:
function mod_redirect_subscriber_delete($user_id) {
$user = get_user_by('id', ...

The "Contributor" role has very little access to anything on the back end but can created posts.
delete_posts
edit_posts

http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities#Contributor
For comparison, an ordinary "Subscriber" has the last of the three, so "Contributor" has only two extra capabilities.
I am not quite sure what "access ...

Sounds like your authors need to be 'Editors'.

Users roles are changed by the WP_User object firing the set_role() function. At the end of that function on line 815 of wp-includes/capabilities.php there is an action to hook to: do_action( 'set_user_role', $this->ID, $role );
So, in your functions.php or in a plugin, you can grab that data as the hook fires after the user capability update, and ...

You can add actions to the set_user_role hook:
add_action( 'set_user_role', 'wpse98904_remove_demoted_user_posts', 10, 2 );
function wpse98904_remove_demoted_user_posts( $demoted_author_id, $role ) {
if( 'subscriber' == $role ) {
// In here you'd search for all the posts by the user
$args = array(
'numberposts' => ...

Filter the 'comments_open' check. It happens inside of the function with the same name, and that function is called in a theme usually like this:
comments_open() and comment_form(
array (
'comment_notes_after' => ''
)
);
This is how the filter works:
add_filter( 'comments_open', 'wpse_98775_comment_check', 10, 2 );

According to register_post_type() documentation capability_type argument is used to construct capabilities.
I think since you are customizing it for the post type, its capabilities requirements won't be formed like read_post but like read_an_group.

s_ha_dum, that was it. The WPMU Membership plugin was breaking it. It was odd because I tried configuring the access levels, but could not get it to work. So I just turned it off :)

This may be similar to what you are looking for, it doesn't force a category, but doesn't let the user submit the new post unless at least one category is selected
This solution requires jQuery, but with little modification can be ported to plain JavaScript
//intercept the "update" or "publish" button
$("#post").submit(function(e){
//grab the GET query ...

On the profile page exists a global variable $profileuser. The member $profileuser->roles is an array of all roles for that user.
<?php # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
// Plugin Name: personal_options
add_action( 'personal_options', 'print_user_roles');
function print_user_roles()
{
global $profileuser;
print '<pre>$profileuser->roles = '

Well.. I see no code... so I don't know if you created the custom post type yourself, or used a plugin. I'm assuming you created the custom post type in functions.php. In there you can have an if statement to check if the user has certain capabilities.
<?php current_user_can( $capability, $args ); ?>
It would really help if you could post some code, ...
