Hi,
I’m new to Toolset so please forgive what is most likely an issue that is of my own making!

In summary, I have created a CPT {“Project Submission Forms”} but the WP user I have assigned permission to edit can only View !

My Configuration Summary:
In ‘Access Control’ I can see that “Project Submission Forms” is ‘managed by Access’
Here also the custom role I have created {“ENJECT Projects Editor”} has all the boxes ticked

The problem is that when I login as my test user {“test-article-uploader”} I can only View the posts from these CPTs and not edit them as I want to.

I'm happy to supply login details if shown how to do so securely.

Hope you can help!
Thanks,
Darragh.

Hello,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

We are already aware of this issue and a fix is planned for version 2.5 of our access plugin. For now we have a workaround that should help with this.

You can do this by setting Posts to be managed by Access with default permissions (no need to set edit permissions for contributor role, just default edit_own, delete own permissions )

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane
