# Warning Undefined array key “capabilities”

 * Getting this commentary from query monitor, it goes and returns with the same
   error when I turn it off and even uninstall and reinstall it. I get the impression
   this is an issue your side, but not tried it on other installations. Your other
   plugins are not reporting any issues, but it is something that I would prefer
   not there and will remove the plugin if it remains. But thought I’d raise it 
   and see if you can fix it, or if I need to do something to get it fixed. Please
   let me know.
 * thanks

 * Hi Jonathan,
 * From what I can see, it seems like somebody made some changes to the user roles
   or permissions, or something similar; it seems there is a role without any capabilities.
 * Can you please check that?
 * Thank you,
