I have a question about using the shortcode for access control for content inside pages:

https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/access-control-texts-inside-page-content/

I have a role called "Vendor Manager" and another one called "Parent".

when I use the shortcode, should there be a space in the "Vendor Manager" part?

eg.

[toolset_access role="Administrator,Vendor Manager,ActiveParent,Parent,Sitter" operator="deny"]

Hi, spaces are allowed here. Usually if your custom role was created with a space in the name, you will see a matching space here in the Access control shortcode. Is it not working as expected?
