• I created 3 AD groups to use with this plugin so when a user logs in they are assigned the appropriate role within WordPress. For example under the Authorization tab I have the Users are authorized for login only when they are members of a specific AD group. Then in the Groups I have the 3 AD group names listed in the Role Equivalent Groups with the corresponding WordPress user role. For example: sitename-WordPress-administrator=administrator, sitename-WordPress-editor=editor, and sitename-WordPress-author=author. User are able to login and from what I can tell get the appropriate role assigned. The issue I am seeing is when a user who is an administrator role is unable to paste YouTube videos into posts or even post or update posts or templates that when normally the site administrator can do. If I make this user a Global administrator for the entire WordPress MU instance they are able to perform these tasks. Am I missing something? From the instructions which are simple to follow this should work but something is just not right with the AD groups to WordPress roles and wondering how I can fix or correct.
