 * Hi,
 * my editors users have the nasty :** You do not have sufficient permissions to
   access this page. whatever capabilities.**
 * i have checked my DB and when i’m changing roles it updates the DB accordingly:
   a:2:{s:6:”editor”;b:1;s:15:”bbp_participant”;b:1;}
 * if i change the role to administrators then the user access as admin so its working.
 * i also tried to restore by default capabilities using wp user roles but still
   the nasty message
    removed all plugin… done
 * any idea where to dig ??
 * thanks for your help
 * stef
