 Hi

 I use multisite and stand alone installs of wordpress. I also use a couple
 of plugins that deal with roles, capabilities and menu items. Using those
 plugins on the single site doesnt show any issues at all. However the
 multisite is a different matter.

 I have contacted the plugin developers and they all state it isnt their
 plugin so thought I would send the to you to see if it my be an issue with
 wordpress multisite.

 Ok so when I create a new role, copied from the admin role for a subsite
 all menu items show as they should, such as privacy, erase and export
 personal data. However if I change one capability or menu item those
 options disappear even if they aren't the options I was changing. I have
 cleaned up the plugins by uninstalling them removed their tables from the
 database and reset the default wordpress roles. Nothing seems to bring
 those options back to the menu.

 Could this be an issue in WordPress multisite? The plugins I use are Admin
 Menu Editor Pro, Adminimize and WPFront User Role Editor Business Pro. All
 plugins, themes and wordpress are on the latest version. I have tried on
 several different multisites with different combinations of using these
 plugins. No matter which one I use first If I cane anything in any of them
 the new GDPR options disappear from the menu on all user roles except
 Super Admin.

 I was wondering if you wouldn't mind looking into this as I really need to
 be able to use those plugins and have those options for my clients.

 Many thanks in advance.
