Subject   st: Margins & marginsplot with a multi-level model

Hello,

I am running an xtmelogit model, and would like to run the margins &
marginsplot commands afterwards, but am receiving an error. If I take
out the "cluster" variable and run a logit model, the commands work
just fine.

Here is the model, followed by the error message:

. xtmelogit drunkt5 drugedt5##treatms  if drunkt1  == 0 ||cluster:

Refining starting values:

Iteration 0:   log likelihood = -3988.7591  (not concave)
Iteration 1:   log likelihood = -3952.4376
Iteration 2:   log likelihood = -3952.1877

Performing gradient-based optimization:

Iteration 0:   log likelihood = -3952.1877
Iteration 1:   log likelihood = -3952.1877

Mixed-effects logistic regression               Number of obs      =      8547

Any suggestions? Thanks!
