Example usage:
current_user_can_for_blog( $blog_id, 'edit_posts' );
current_user_can_for_blog( $blog_id, 'edit_post', $post->ID );
current_user_can_for_blog( $blog_id, 'edit_post_meta', $post->ID, $meta_key );Parameters Parameters

-
(int) (Required) Site ID.
- $capability
-
(string) (Required) Capability name.
- $args
-
(mixed) (Optional) further parameters, typically starting with an object ID.
