Custom Membership Issues

I have created a custom membership based on the moderator. I have found different anomalies with the new membership level and have found yet another one. On all the standard memberships with the template Im using in the upper right hand corner next to the notifications bell is a plus sign which brings down a menu of items you can create, ie. update, post, poll, etc. For some reason the custom member I made does not see this and I dont know why. I have compared membership permissions between the moderator and the new membership and found nothing. I am attaching images showing the difference. I just need to know how to fix this for the new membership I have created. Thanks.
