    When I change a bbpress capability (remove read hidden forums capability) it seems at first that the changes are saved. However, when I reload the page (click “change” below “Select new role,” it becomes obvious that PublishPress Capabilities is unable to change capabilities.

    Hi @michael8888

    Thanks for using PublishPress Capabilities.

    Can you open a support ticket on our site, and send us the Site Health information?

    @michael8888 bbPress applies its own role capabilities control in a way that overrides the database values stored by a role editor like PublishPress Capabilities. As a result, additional integration code is required to grant Forum, Topic or Reply capabilities stored by PublishPress Capabilities. We provide that code as part of the PublishPress Permissions Pro package.

    Then I’d say your plugin has a severe security issue because you make webmasters believe that they changed the security rights which is actually not the case.
