I would like to build a system where users log in and manage their own data. The data is in a many to many relations and I will use Views and Types to show and store it. So there will be a lot of data stored in the database, but the users are only supposed to see their own data when logged in.
What you can do is to Create a CPT that would allow the user to enter the data. Then what you can do is to use our Access plugin to restrict it so only the user who created the post can have access to the data that was entered.
There will be many users and I need some sort of:
If wpv-post-author = logged in user, then show a View with a list of his/her entries, not any others.
In that list, there will be links to edit and create new posts with CRED. Which in turn will show up in that user's list.
I've found conditional output, but can't see how to implement it in this way.
And by the way are there a beta with many to many possibilities? If not, when?
I've read the article three times and tried it out at my site and what I can, I can restrict edit and delete to only the owner. But I can't see any way to restrict read to only the owner. It would work if I made a new post type for each user, but that would make it impossible to handle. So how do I restrict read to the owner?
My Toolset is translated to Swedish, so it's not obvious for me what CPT is. The Access plugin has no options for setting permissions to "Read Own" and that is what I need. I can restrict read on a user level, but not to own posts.
I need some way to restrict it so only the owner of the post can see and edit the content in any way. This includes Views and the drop-down lists in the many to many connection forms.
As I understand it, the basic idea with Access is to control who can publish and edit and what different types of content I can see. What I try to build is a private sphere where the user only will see and handle his or her own data.
If this is not possible, Toolset is the wrong tool, and I'll look for something else. Would very much appreciate if we could sort this out. Thank you!
