# Non-admin cannot view Dashboard

 * In a recent update, a capability check was added to the beginning of `\FDSUS\
   Controller\Admin\Settings::maybeProcessSave()`: [https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/sign-up-sheets/tags/2.2.2/controller/admin/settings.php?marks=678-681#L671](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/sign-up-sheets/tags/2.2.2/controller/admin/settings.php?marks=678-681#L671)
 * The problem is that this check runs on every call to `admin_init`, regardless
   of whether there’s an attempted save routine taking place or not. As a result,
   non-admins are never able to visit any page in the Dashboard.
 * The highlighted block should come *after* the check for `'submit_hidden'`, not
   before.
