I'd like to have the option (even if via code) to force using CRED to modify an existing post, disallowing editing via wp-admin.
I didn't see this asked before in the forums. Is this possible?
Hello,
There isn't such a built-in feature within Toolset plugins, you might try other plugins, for example this one:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/remove-dashboard-access-for-non-admins/
Could you please add mine as a feature request?
I want non-admins who have access to wp-admin post editor to be able to view in wp-admin but to redirect to the CRED form to edit
For example, an Admin could edit "Field X" but a non-admin can only view it... they can change "Field Y" via CRED but not "Field X".
Basically, none/read/write user permissions at the field level.
OK, as your request, I have marked this thread as feature request, and forward it to correspond supporter.
Hi Clifford
We will not add features that do redirect from WordPress Admin (native post edit actions) to the Front End.
If you need this, you need to alter WordPress, not Toolset.
This means you would need to create your Forms just as used to with Toolset, put them on a Page or Post and then lead to that thru a link from the WordPress Admin (if the user is of role xy). That link needs to be added with Custom Code using the WordPress API and PHP Code.
We cannot assist this, but maybe a contractor can:

Now, I see that your request is probably born on another issue:
In Types, you cannot choose "read only" mode when creating a Field, neither you can control who can manipulate it in the backend when you set up fields.
Only in Toolset Forms, you seem to be able to control that (by simply removing the fields or similar).
But you can do that perfectly fine with Toolset Access.
Just set up your Custom Fields, then in Toolset > Access Control > Types Fields decide who can see, and edit, which fields
That will help greatly I think
Sounds like a viable solution. Thanks.
