 * Hi All
 * I hope you can help.
 * I’ve created a plugin but I’m having problems with a capability.
 * `You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.`
 * The admin page is created from
 *     ```
       add_action('admin_menu', 'todays_orders_page'); 
   
       function todays_orders_page() {
       	add_menu_page('Todays orders', 'Todays orders', 'todays_orders', __FILE__,'todays_orders');
       }
       ```
   
 * In the database for a user I have
    `a:1:{s:5:"todays_orders";b:1;}`
 * Which I’m assuming is set correctly.
    Using various plugins, the role I have 
   created as “Owner” is showing as having the todays_orders activated.
 * I have created other admin plugins but they have always been on the main site
   and not on a sub site of the multisite setup. Is this a possible issue?
 * Any help would be much appreciated
    Mark.
