[Resolved] My Account page

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

Problem:

I want to create a My Account page for users, including the ability to edit their content via a form. This page is helpful

https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/building-the-my-account-page/

and mentions "Manage my ads" but says "The Edit profile and Manage your ads pages have yet to be created (check Part 9 and Part 5)". I'm not sure what that's referring to. Can you please point me to the relevant articles?

Solution:

That document is outdated, it is referred to tutorial of Classifieds Sites:

Thanks. I've set up a demo site based on this one:

to check how it's done. But on the front end when I click on My Ads, it says No items found, even though I have been set as the author of all the ads.

I've got it working on my own site now. Not sure why it wasn't working on the demo site, but it doesn't matter.
