 * What are the plans to update the online documentation so they reflect a more 
   current version? Current documents are dated October 2015 and do not cover some
   of the current features.

 * The online documentation varies by date pretty widely. I know that the developers
   are working on updating it where needed. If there is something specific that 
   you have found to be out of date or lacking in detail, please indicate what it
   is so that the developers are aware of it.

 * Setting up the user role is one of the key items of the UM yet its documentation
   is dated October 18, 2015. There are few of the user setup options that are not
   covered by that version of documentation. For example “Sync with WordPress Role”

 * Right. However, they tried their best. And, those who understand that functionality,
   with a few exceptions, never come to this board to ask for help.
 * What do you need to know about the sync option? If you are running a regular 
   straight forward membership site with 2 simple user roles (admin & user) that
   function goes largely ignored.

 * The site I am working on has 6 levels of user roles so I wanted to know how they
   correlate to WP Roles.
 * I am not saying that they are not doing their best I simply asked about the plans
   for updating the documentation.

 * How do they co-relate? If you want to give a user wp author permissions, then
   that’s what you use.
