 * Hi !
 * Thank you for your efforts – nice plugin.
 * Just one question – is it expected that users below Author level cannot edit 
   their posts. In plugin settings I’ve enabled everything for users starting with
   subscriber level and they can create posts, but not edit.
 * Best regards,
    Sergey

 * Hi. That’s not an intentional feature. In the last release I tried to harden 
   the security of the plugin. The behavior you are seeing is a side-effect of that.
   I’ll try to release a fix in the next few days.
 * Thanks for using the plugin. And if you like it, please give it a 5 star rating.

 * In the meanwhile you can fix the problem by giving subscribers and contributors
   the capability to edit their own posts. There are a number of plugins that can
   help you do this.
