    I created a role called “photo” from the Members / Role link in the Dashboard. During the WordPress Registration, from a PHP program I inserted the following wp_usermeta row for a user: meta_key=wp_capabilities meta_value = a:1:{s:8:”photo”;b:1;} . But when I go to the Dashboard / Users for the user in question the “photo” role is not checked. Shouldn’t it be? What is the significance of the “8” in the meta_value field?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
