 * This plugins seems very useful for me, but I am facing few problems
    I am running
   WP Multisite Subdomain install. I have WP-3.4 and User-Role-Editor-3.7.5 installed.
   I network activated the plugin, So **1-** Being a **Super Admin** can i restrict
   the roles of **Site admins** ? Why is plugin not showing role of _“Site Admin”_
   in the _“Select Role”_ dropdown menu on plugins option page. **2-** For multisite
   it would be more preferable if plugin options showed up under _[http://example.com/wp-admin/network](http://example.com/wp-admin/network)_
   rather then in _[http://example.com/wp-admin](http://example.com/wp-admin)_ thank-
   you

 * 1) this information is included into FAQ section and available as at readme.txt
   and at [http://shinephp.com/user-role-editor-wordpress-plugin/#faq](http://shinephp.com/user-role-editor-wordpress-plugin/#faq)
   
   You can insert this line of code `define('URE_SHOW_ADMIN_ROLE', 1);` to your 
   wp-config.php in order to see ‘Administrator’ role in the roles list. 2) WordPress
   have separate storage for roles and capabilities for every site of the network.
   User Role Editor is just interface to manage WordPress internal roles & capabilities
   storage. That’s why you should go to the site of the network in order to edit
   its roles and capabilities. I just repeat WordPress way.
 * Yes, in theory it’s possible to build the only role editor for all sites from
   one place. But do you edit some site settings from the Network Admin dashboard
   or go that site first and edit its settings there?
 * Although it could be a good idea for new feature: if you wish to have all roles
   and capabilities universal for the whole network, it will be useful to edit all
   of them from one place.
 * From other side, if you are the only admin who will edit roles, activate plugin
   just for main site. Edit roles there, save them with ‘Apply to All Sites’ option
   turned on. That’s it. You updated all network from one place with current version
   of plugin.
