capacity is not a known word in WP, used capabilities instead

| Sep 26, 2016 at 22:00 | comment | added | Alana Storm | @AhmedMahdi Thank you, yes, I meant capabilities (fixed in the post text). The link you provided shows how to programmatically add a capability to a user -- however, it looks like that adds the capability programmatically. I looking for an Admin UI feature that allows you to assign capabilities -- similar to how other systems allow you add individual ACL rules to a user account. | |
