[Plugin: User Meta] Unable to update user data if not admin

    Hi,

    first of all thank you for your great plugin User Meta. However, I have encountered a problem with version 1.0.5.

    I use a User Meta form in the frontend to let users update their personal info. However, users with other permissions than administrator have not been able to update their info – the process dies with a message of ‘Security check’. I have tracked this message back to the file PluginFrameworkWPSupport.php where there are some checks for role, but I’m stuck now.

    Some more observations:
    – Admins *can* update their info through the front end.
    – I *think* that I didn’t have this problem in version 1.0.3 but I’m not sure if I checked that thoroughly.
    – In the forum I saw that you added nonce checking in version 1.0.5, could that have something to do with it?

    Thank you in advance,
    Mark.

    Thank you for your observations, About one or two hours after, uploading version 1.0.5, I also notice this bug. Immediately, I update the fix. But did not change version number. Assuming no enough downloaded with 1/2 hours.

    Just inactive and remove version 1.0.5 and download install it again.

    Please let us know if you find any other bug.

    Thank you very much.
