Post Author Visibility

I hope that I am mistaken, but the statement from the plugin’s documentation, under Content Permissions does not seem to be true when using the members_access role= shortcode.

“The post author… can always view the post, regardless of their role.”

The content does not show for the content’s author, but does show for the administrator role. I would really like to be able to restrict the content to administrators and editors and the post author, even when the post author has the subscriber user role.

Should this be working? Is this possible? Any help will be very much appreciated.

Thanks
