 * I was wondering how to change the capability names to be more human readable.
 * I have a custom post called Team Posts
 * When I look at in the Edit Role interface it reads as edit_team-posts but if 
   I look at the built in Post type it reads as Edit Post.
 * If I wanted to change these to be more like Edit Others’ Posts vs edit_others_team-
   posts where does that happen.
 * Thank You

 * Hi [@kokoruz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kokoruz/),
 * You can look at the `members_register_caps` hook. Something like this:
 *     ```
       add_action( 'members_register_caps', 'cp_members_register_caps' );
       /**
        * Register a custom capability in Members.
        *
        * @return void
        */
       function cp_members_register_caps() {
       	members_register_cap( 'edit_others_team-posts', array( 'label' => 'Edit Team Posts' ) );
       }
       ```
