[Resolved] Possible to restrict content inside page by user

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

Problem:
The issue here is that the user wanted to restrict content in a page by single user.

Solution:
You Can do this however it will be done in the opposite way. Now you can add a Post to a post group, Restrict the permissions on the group for a specific role, then you can add your users individually that you want to have permissions to the page itself.

So those who are not on the list wont be able to access the page.

I basically want to do this https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/access-control-texts-inside-page-content/ but on a per user level not per role level. The end goal is to have one page called /portal or something and have each user have their own custom form based on their existing equipment. I dont want to create a new role for each company as that sounds like a bad idea. is there a way to extend the access shortcode to the user, so it's like - [toolset user_name ="user1"]

Hi Nicholas,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Unfortunately no we dont have a solution to restrict individual user from viewing contents within a post.

Thanks,

how about a way to restrict a page to only one user? the I could create a page each and setup a login redirect somehow for everyone?
