[Resolved] Problem with Toolset Access

I created a profile page for users with "Contributor" role to view their profile as well as stories they had contributed to the website: hidden link

Non-logged in users will see the login/register form.
Users with "Contributor" role will see their personal profile (managed with CPT called "profile")

I'm using Access to manage the output, here's how my code looks:

[toolset_access role="Guest" operator="allow"]
[wpv-post-body view_template="register-login-forms"]
[/toolset_access]
[toolset_access role="Guest" operator="deny"]
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-4" style="padding-bottom: 40px;">
<h3>My profile</h3>
Hello [wpv-user field="user_login"] (Update login info).
Not you? [wpv-logout-link]Logout[/wpv-logout-link]
[wpv-view name="my-profile"]
</div>
<div class="col-md-8" style="padding-bottom: 40px;">
<h3>My stories</h3>
[wpv-view name="stories-by-user"]
</div>
</div>
[/toolset_access]

The problem Im facing now, when I tried to log in as contributor, I can't see the view [wpv-view name="my-profile"] — it shows "Permission denied".

How do I go about troubleshooting this?

P/s: As the site is live, it is rather pressing for me to fix this quickly. It would help greatly if you can log in to take a look at my Access settings.

Hi Dean

I'll take a look at this now.

Do you have a test contributor account I can use?

I'll set another private reply so that you can share that, too, if you have one available.

Hi Dean

Your View "My Profile" in the output section for when no posts are found includes a Toolset Form.

But in your Access settings Contributors did not have rights to use that form, and that's why you were seeing the "Permission Denied" message.

I added the rights for Contributors to use the form (at Toolset > Access Control > Toolset Forms) and it's now working.

Thank you so much Nigel! You are my super star!
