Hi there,

You are changing the ordering option which is not the filter option.

The filter is what you get under the Content Section when you select the view itself on the sidebar.

Please check the answers below:

Here is an older documentation but the principle is the same:

Thanks.

Hello,
I have been able to get the add filter button. So does it mean that with this users will be able to view and edit only their data entries?

Hi there,

I am not sure what you have done. If you followed the link I mentioned it should work.

But you can easily test.

You can create a user, add some posts with that and then try to access other posts with that user in the view that you have created.

Thanks.
