[Resolved] is it possible to use cred to change the post status on the front end ?

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:

I have a membership site where their post show as pending status. After the content is reviewed, then the post is set to published. Is that possible to happen on the front end so I don't have to hive access to the back end of the website?

Solution:

It is possible, you can create a Toolset form for editing post, in section "Settings", option "Set this post status" choose "Published", then after user submit this post form, it will be able to change the post status to "Published".

Thank you Luo, the more I use Toolset the more I fall in love with the it. I did it, it works, and it fixed half of my problem.

what would be the procedure to change status for a subscriber? can that be done on the front end as well? I have a membership site that need to approve the request for membership, then after approved I needed to automatically trigger an email with new credentials with login in ID and a system generated password (that would be available for changing after approval) .

is this situation possible from the front end as well?
