 Hello @DJviolin

 Welcome to Trac

 I'm sorry, but I not quite sure I understand your problem.

 If you need to add capabilities to roles, I suggest a role manager or
 capability manager plugin. A theme should not make permanent changes to
 roles on every page load. Capabilities may be manipulated from
 `functions.php` using the `map_meta_cap` filter.

 Since I can't see any indication of a core bug in your report and latest
 comment, I have to suggest you try our support forum
 [https://wordpress.org/support/]. The people there are most capable of
 helping you do what you want the right way.

 If it should later become evident there is, or may be, a bug in core,
 please feel free to reopen this ticket.
