 * Thanks for a handy plugin 🙂
 * I let Gold level inherit capabilities from Silver Level. When I go to set additional
   capabilities for Gold Level, I find it has _no_ capabilities switched on. It 
   has not inherited them from Silver.
 * Are levels inheriting properly? Am I doing something wrong?
 * Thank you for your help.

 * Thank you for reporting this.
 * I can see how this can be confusing. The capabilities are inherited by the members
   of the level, but they are not displayed in the UI. I will think about it can
   be displayed, while still making it clear that the inherited capabilities can
   be overridden, e.g. Gold level can grant a capability revoked in Silver.
 * Any suggestions for this are welcome! 🙂
