# Wrong capabilities after user edit

 * Hi, using your plugin I noticed that after editing some user (with the current
   user admin), your plugin seems to rewrite the wp_capabilities of the current 
   user in the wrong way, so that after this the admin user cannot access the wordpress
   backend (Access denied) and I have to reset his capabilities to the default ‘
   a:1:{s:13:”administrator”;s:1:”1″;}’.
    Is there some patch for this? Does anyone
   else had the same problem?
 * Thank you so much
    Gabriele Valenti

 * Hello,
    While we investigating this issue for you, Please double check if the
   problem being happened due to a different plugin. Try to deactivate all the other
   plugins, edit the user profile again and see if you could re-produce the error
   again.
 * Thanks
