 * Hi everbody!
 * I’m wondering if additional backend navigation/menu items, added by a plugin 
   for example, are only visibile to Admin users?
 * If so – thats pretty poor? I mean there is only one or max 2 admins to one website
   but a lot of users managing content, right?
 * So – I got this Event Plugin from [http://wordpress.org/plugins/really-simple-events/](http://wordpress.org/plugins/really-simple-events/)
   but only the Admin User can add entry? How poor is this? I mean, come on?
 * How can i make the “Events” Menu Item in the backend visible to all users of 
   my WordPress? Or isn’t that even possible?
 * Let’s say its not possible to generate custom menu items to users that aren’t
   admin.
 * How would I write/use a custom plugin for generating additional content like 
   events, which isn’t a post or a page? Let’s say I want to add different objects/
   entities to my website, like events or I dont know, cars, toys. How would I do
   that? Again: not for the admin user only
 * **//UPDATE:**
 * Found a Solution. Changed the parameter user_capabilities to “moderate_comments”.
 * works now! 🙂
 * Thread => PROBLEM SOLVED!
