I would like to group users through toolset. My goal is I want a Project CPT with not just the author having access but a team of users (maybe even have a child CPT called Team if that would work). I was thinking that when the Project was created, an Access Control "Post Group" would be created simultaneously and the specific users could be added to the team by the user creating the CPT. My questions are 1) is this possible without having to add customized code 2) and can this be done via CRED forms or other means via the frontend? Even if it's not completely possible, is the ability to create a "post group" from the frontend? Thanks.

Dear Adrian,

It will need custom PHP codes for setup Access Control "Post Group" with CRED form.
As a workaround, I suggest you try with custom user role instead of Access Control "Post Group", then you will be able to create the user with CRED user form, and specific the user's role, there isn't custom code needed.
More help:
1) Access Control for Standard and Custom Content Types

2) Front-end User Registration and Editing Forms
