 * Hi
 * When I create a page and tick the box(s) to allow groups access, I update the
   page to save the settings, but the boxes are unchecked… Hence, it’s not saving
   the UAM access setting for pages.
 * HELP!

 * My problem is the same but may be an extension of the Role Affiliation for groups
   not being added to a group. So the group is basically an “All” group.
 * I’m wondering if that is the programming that if there are no Roles Affiliated
   with a group, it defaults to not being able to set a page to that group.
 * I’ve set the version of UAM in the wp_options tables to 1.0 to update the database.
   I’ve cleared my cache. I’ve done everything I can think of to get Roles Affiliation
   to accept Roles but it isn’t working.
 * I looked at the UAM users access table in the database and there is no field 
   for the Roles Affiliation. I’m guessing it’s handled in a separate UAM table,
   which would make sense for normalization.
 * I have the current version of UAM as I only downloaded it yesterday after the
   new version came out.
 * I’m using the Smartline Pro Theme.

 * I am having the exact same problem (clean wp install, default twenty fifteen 
   theme). Checked boxes are not being saved and remain unchecked.
 * Same with checking “Role affiliation” boxes on config page

 * Edit User Group – Read Access/Write Access will save, role affiliation will not
 * Users – Everything saves except set up user group

 * “Role affiliation” boxes on config page does not save.
    Group does not save in
   posts.

 * I seems that one table is missing. Could you run the following SQL Statement 
   and post the possible error message (I think there is one and that’s the issue):
 *     ```
       CREATE TABLE wp_uam_accessgroup_to_object (
         object_id VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
         object_type varchar(255) NOT NULL,
         group_id int(11) NOT NULL,
         PRIMARY KEY  (object_id,object_type,group_id)
       )
       ```
   
 * If you get an error, could you try the following statement and tell me if it 
   works:
 *     ```
       CREATE TABLE wp_uam_accessgroup_to_object (
         object_id VARCHAR(64) NOT NULL,
         object_type varchar(64) NOT NULL,
         group_id int(11) NOT NULL,
         PRIMARY KEY  (object_id,object_type,group_id)
       )
       ```

 * Don’t be worry, I think someone else will try it. If someone confirm me that 
   this is the reason and the second one works I will release a new version.

 * I ran the sql, seems to have fixed the problem, thank you. Will keep checking
   to make sure all is fixed

 * I believe the first sql revealed that there was no table. I ran it again and 
   it said the table already exists. Sorry should have copies the error message 
   for you. Like I said Newbie

 * Second error message was “Table ‘wp_uam_accessgroup_to_object’ already exists”

 * I’m guessing that the original table was not created. Thanks for the fix
