Topic Tag: Front-end display

Problem:
How can we add a link to edit the currently displayed Post, in a Template Layout, so that when clicked, the Toolset Form to edit this post is shown?

Solution:
You can create a Toolset form and insert it into a new Layout.
Do not assign this Layout to any content.
Then edit the Layout for the single posts where you want the Edit Link to appear.
Insert a "Edit Post Link" using a Visual Editor Cell.
When inserting this link the GUI will ask you to set the Layout which shows the form, where you can choose the layout you created in the first step.

This will now produce a link on the single posts which leads to the edit form for each post.
