Tell us what you are trying to do? I wish to allow a given Custom role to edit a specific custom type

Is there any documentation that you are following? I applied all the guidelines available on your site

Is there a similar example that we can see?

What is the link to your site?

Hi Patrick,

Thank you for getting in touch.
Would you mind allowing me to have admin access to the website so that I can have a more detailed look at this for you ?

Please let me know the Post Type and the User role that you're having the issue with.

I've enabled the private fields for your next response.

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Patrick,

I was able to get this working for you.

What I had to do was to remove the user role and re-create it and set it to copy the permissions from the editor role. Then I went ahead and removed all the privileges that weren't needed.

Please let me know if this helps.

Thanks,
Shane
