 * It would also be nice if we could specify the security beyond the 8 character
   minimum. Enforcing strong passwords would be ideal (upper, lower, numeric, special).

 * I also added this code to try and force SVGs to work but it still dice:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       add_filter( 'wp_check_filetype_and_ext', function($data, $file, $filename, $mimes) {
   
           $ext = isset( $data['ext'] ) ? $data['ext'] : '';
   
           if ( empty( $ext ) ) {
               $file_parts = explode( '.', $filename );
               $ext = strtolower( end( $file_parts ) );
           }
   
           if ( $ext === 'svg' ) {
               $data['type'] = 'image/svg+xml';
               $data['ext'] = 'svg';
           } elseif ( $ext === 'svgz' ) {
               $data['type'] = 'image/svg+xml';
               $data['ext'] = 'svgz';
           }
   
           return $data;
   
         }, 10, 4 );
       ```

 * I mentioned in my original post that the license was registered there. I don’t
   see what clicking save again would do. Regardless I clicked save again an then
   went to update the plugin and it failed again.

 * Unfortunately the problem can’t be fixed with CSS since the DOM structure is 
   overridden to display the toggles. I suppose I could write some JS to parse the
   new DOM nodes and rewrite it to use checkboxes, but I think that would end up
   taking way too much time 🙁
 * Honestly I can’t believe Salient would override the checkbox value “type” in 
   the attributes array passed to the standard plugin’s vc_add_param() function.
   That seems so anti-consumer to me when it would be just as easy to extend the
   functionality to add their own “toggle” type.
 * I think I am going to write them a strongly worded support ticket explaining 
   my dissatisfaction lol.
 * Thank you again for your time helping me debug this!

 * I just disabled the version of Page Builder bundled with the theme and installed/
   activated the standard version. Doing this enabled your plugin to work as intended
   and shows the checkboxes inline properly with the labels. The issue appears to
   be with the way the version bundled with the theme handles checkboxes (overriding
   to display toggles?).
 * I poked around in ~/plugins/hide-content-by-role-for-wpbakery/include/admin.php
   to see how it was registering the roles and applying them to the contend editor,
   but there doesn’t seem to be anything I can easily modify to make work with the
   theme’s version. It’s unfortunate because your plugin is exactly what I’m looking
   for, but since I’m stuck using the theme’s page builder plugin I’m out of luck.
 * Thank you for helping me look into this, and I do appreciate the time spent troubleshooting
   on your end. I’m sorry it turned out to be a waste. I’ll try reaching out to 
   the theme’s author to see if there’s anything they can do to improve compatibility.

 * I tried disabling all the other plugins except for WPBakery Page Builder removed
   all custom CSS but it didn’t have an affect on the toggle labels.
 * Digging through the elements viewer it looks like there’s no HTML responsible
   for displaying the role in the popup, although the input values are set to the
   specific role they’re responsible for as seen in this screen shot:

 * Since this version of Page Builder is bundled with the theme, I suppose it’s 
   likely they have proprietary code added that’s incompatible with this plugin.

 * [8 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-feed-w-multiple-categories-per-post/#post-10092370)
 * I updated the plugin myself to handle consuming the categories.
 * In case you ever do want to release category matching, as the edit pipes page
   indicates you’re able to do (**but fails to actually implement**), you’ll need
   to update the way the object is serialized into JSON. The categories are created
   as SimplePie_Category objects which fail to deserialize from the JSON cache properly.
   Alternatively, fix the call returning to deserialized object to make sure the
   SimplePie_Category objects are handled properly. I’m not familiar with SimplePie
   so I edited the content pre-serialization.
 * I had to add the call “$item[$i]->get_categories()” to assign the “$row->category”
   object and then parse the result into a pipe (“|”) delimited string from an array
   of SimplePie_Category objects. I’m parsing them into a pipe delimited string 
   because that’s what the post adapter is expecting to find when parsing the categories.
   If I left the $row->category object as is, when the post adapter script reads
   the output it encounters an array of __PHP_Incomplete_Class, which you then can’t
   get the data out of.
 * I’m marking this as resolved, since I resolved it myself, but it’s a shame that
   such a robust plugin with so much potential is missing some of the basic features
   you would expect. Also, the fact that your answer was to turn around and try 
   and sell me a product instead of extend the plugin speaks volumes to which end
   this plugin is supposed to serve. It’s a lot like giving someone a car, but then
   telling them they have to pay for the wheels, engine, wiper blades, seat belts,
   etc.

 * I’ve taken a look at the post adapter like you said and I don’t think that’s 
   what I need to modify.
 * I’ve stepped through quite a bit of the pipes code and it appears when consuming
   the RSS feed the plugin doesn’t even consider grabbing the post categories from
   the feed to assign to the new post, despite there being a “[di] category” section
   that can be assigned to.
 * Is perfectly matching up RSS feeds to new posts not the entire purpose of the
   plugin? Why is there a destination input for category when the source output’s
   categories aren’t read or parsed? This seems like it’s a massive bug in the plugin.
