Hi Aldo,

Thank you for getting in touch.

Unfortunately this won't be possible.

Essentialy the edit capabilities is needed in order for you to Connect or Disconnect posts. This is because you are essentially editing a post when you connect it in a relationship.

So unless the user has edit capabilities then for the post then it won't be possible to do.

Thanks,
Shane
