After reading all of these, I've created a Post Form, inserted the post form into a template and then created the edit link on the CRM page.
When hovering over the Edit link, it shows the following link - /customer-management/john-jones/?layout_id=3180
When clicking the link, the page just refreshed.
After some more reading, I read Beda had said that I would need to enter the post content block into my template.
Doing this removed the need for the link, but then removes the functionality of having the link that I wanted originally.
I want the form to be seperate to the page.
However, adding the post content block didn't solve my problem, it only showed the post content in editable fields.
I really do not want to remake the template.
Toolset is an amazing plugin, however it isn't too great for styling with next to 0 css/php knowledge.
As far as I can tell, you're telling me to make the template again, instead of elementor.... If this is the case... that's a big fat negative towards toolset... :((((((((((((
Before we go to suggest remaking any templates would you mind allowing me to have admin access to the site so that I can check on the issue first hand ?
The private fields will be enabled for your next response. You shouldn't need to re-create your template in Toolset.
Please also let me know an example page that I can look at.
I did some testing and found that this is actually a compatibility issue.
The problem is also replicable on a fresh install with Toolset and the elementor Pro plugin. As a result of this I went ahead and escalated the issue to our 2nd tier support team for further checks on the issue.
Thank you for the patience. I've gotten a response from our 2nd tier supporters.
Our Forms plugin require that your elementor page template has the post content cell added to it. If this section is not added then the form cannot be rendered on the page as our Forms plugin replaces the post loop itself with the form.
Please try adding the cell to your template and let me know if this resolves the issue.
I've been thinking of a way around this.
I've create dashboards for my different User Roles.
I've done this by simply creating a header which shows on the pages I want, assigned to the user roles that I want to see the header.(using elementor header and footer plugin)
Is there a way I could create a content template, which isn't assigned to a post type (to keep my elementor template intact) and attach my dashboard header to the content template page, allowing a user to edit the information within their dashboard instead of directly from the elementor page?
Or does a content template need to be assigned to a post type for it to work correctly?
Or maybe creating a duplicate content template, where a user can use the original links I provide to edit the content and still just show the elementor template on the front end...
