    The role setting doesn’t seem to be working. Admin and editor roles can see the entries, every role below that can’t, wether or not a lower role is selected in the settings.

    Ok, so after some more troubleshooting I’ve concluded the following:

    1. The “minimum” role to allow an export is actually the “actual” role. So only the role that is set will be able to do an export. I don’t think that was your intention.

    2. Only admins and editors are able to “view submission”, because viewing an admission is regarded as an edit. In other words, anyone below editor status won’t be able to view the submissions.

    Feature request; it would be great to be able to print a submission.

    Hope you’ll get back to me on this.

    In line 59 there is function sb_elem_cfd_submenu()

    There at the moment a user role is used instead of capability.
    https://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Menus

    capability
    The capability required for this menu to be displayed to the user. When using the Settings API to handle your form, you should use ‘manage_options’ here as the user won’t be able to save options without it. User levels are deprecated and should not be used here!

    It seems that user leves are not working anymore in current wordpress version.
