[Resolved] Best tools for user submitted custom content (logged in but not through admin)

I am creating custom post types and want users to be able to submit their own content (custom post type with custom fields). Right now auto approving after posting but may eventually have it moderated. They would be logged in but not going to the admin.

I was just trying to figure out the best combination and if you have all the tools needed to make this happen.

And yes, one issue per post but if any tool can limit tags (to a list I create) that would be great.

Thanks.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

As I understand, you want the loggedin user to submit the post from frontend and they should be able to access the posts they created - correct? If yes:
- You can use the Toolset Form that will allow the user to create post from frontend
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/getting-started-with-toolset/publish-content-from-the-front-end/forms-for-creating-content/

- You can use the Toolset Access to control the access for your custom post type;
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/access-control/setting-access-control/#managing-access-control-for-posts-pages-and-custom-post-types

- You can use the Block view to list the posts created by logged in user and add filter to filter posts crated by loggedin user:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/getting-started-with-toolset/create-and-display-custom-lists-of-content/
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/views/filtering-views-query-by-author/#post-author-is-the-same-as-the-logged-in-user

Does this make sense? Please let me know if you need further assistance or correct me if I misunderstood your questions.
