@drivenfaroff Are you also running the PublishPress Permissions plugin?
The only change in PublishPress Capabilities 1.9.10 was to synchronize “Filtered Post Types” settings with PublishPress Permissions. See if your previous behavior is restored by disabling Permissions > Settings > Core > Filtered Post Types > [Your Post Type]. If you’re not running Permissions, is it possible that some other plugin was updated at the same time as Capabilities? Going back to at least January, I don’t see any other Capabilities plugin changes that could have that effect.
Hi Kevin,
I’m not using PublishPress Permissions. Other plugins were updated at the same time via an automated process.
I’ve tested on an old backup of the website using version 1.9 and the same issue was present then.
I’ve also narrowed the plugins down to just Advanced Custom Fields, PublishPress Capabilities and User Switcher and tested with the same result. Also same result with using 2019 theme.
Is there a specific setting I’m missing so that YouTube embeds show in the back end for this user type? The only way I can get them to show is by checking the “Posts > Edit” checkbox.

Hi @drivenfaroff. Most times, we can help. Check the support threads here for evidence of that.
Sorry, to the very best of our knowledge, this just isn’t caused by our plugin. Capabilities does not control access to embeds, and nothing about that changed with 1.9.10.
That being said, we’re open to being wrong if a specific error is found.
If you need us to do a deep debugging on your site, we do have a Pro membership service where our developers could see what’s going on (even if unrelated to our plugin).
@drivenfaroff Lots of code, including parts of the WordPress core, imposes an ‘edit_posts’ capability requirement for seemingly unrelated operations.
Capabilities itself does not impose the requirement, and stopping other code from requiring ‘edit_posts’ is outside the scope of this plugin’s functionality.
