Multisite – Capabilities reset when restricting access to a plugin

[Vladimir]

Hi Andy,
If you have time and development site copy to test beta version 4.65.b1, you may try it. It’s available from “Downloads” page.
Unfortunately, the ‘Import’ button under the “Network Admin->Users->User Role Editor” still waits update. Do not use it until the next beta.

Great Vladimir, I’ve given the pre-release notes (below) each a test on a vanilla multisite and dev copy of client site and confirm we’re no longer losing capabilities, awesome!

I see your disclaimer here https://www.role-editor.com/download-plugin/, but I assume this beta release *could* be rolled out to a production site, in that reverting to an actual release will not cause an issue and that it is in the “upgrade path” so to speak?

Fix: Users->User Role Editor->Import: single user role was imported successfully but the empty page was shown instead of URE page with successful import notification.
Fix: Meta Boxes Access add-on: WP Multisite: Network Admin->Users->User Role Editor->Meta Boxes: current role does not lose now all capabilities after the 'Update' button click.
Fix: Other Roles Access add-on: WP Multisite: Network Admin->Users->User Role Editor->Other Roles: current role does not lose now all capabilities after the 'Update' button click.
Fix: Posts Edit Access add-on: WP Multisite: Network Admin->Users->User Role Editor->Posts Edit: current role does not lose now all capabilities after the 'Update' button click.
Fix: Plugins Access add-on: WP Multisite: Network Admin->Users->User Role Editor->Plugins: current role does not lose now all capabilities after the 'Update' button click.

Thanks for your help.

Sure. There are no differences which could prevent to switch form one to another.
