on this page here i have 3 forms to update the current post hidden link
1 under gallery
1 under corrections
1 under under subscribed
all 3 forms i am having the same issue with . a user with the role listivo user . no matter how i set the permissions if a user is not logged in it will still show the forms , i had to set conditions in elelmentor so non logged in user could not see or use the forms.
no matter how i set the settings , the listivo role could either not see the forms or can edit anyones updates to the post . i just need and was certain that i could set the forms with access so only logged in user could see and use the forms (if not logged in a message to ask to login would be seen) and so each user could only control their own content that they submitted.
can you help out please , ive read and followed the online documentation but i dont believe its working as it should.
also a quick question if possible , i know with the form i can control the posts status , but can the actual field uploaded via the forms be set to be draft (post remains published) until and admin sets the fields uploaded by a user to published ?
thanks , please set a private reply so i may share login details
Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.
Can you please send me admin access details and let me check what's going wrong with your setup.
*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.
I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.
When I checked the following URL without login:
- hidden link
I can see it shows the login box when I click on the any of the tab:
- gallery
- corrections
- subscribed
now, as I understand, when you loggedin as "listivo" role user that user can only edit own post - correct? if yes:
Can you please share "Listivo User" access details and also share what post created that that "Listivo User" and what post created by other "Listivo User" so I can make sure the current loggedin user can edit their own post only.
Please share details if above is incorrect and guide me in right direction.

all the posts are made by the events calendar in the backend , it is only ever admin who creates the posts.
a normal listivo user is shez984531 ^yc^dT^HPix5c6njePgwkeT#
the listivo user can add info from the 3 forms to the url above , but can only edit there own uploads they made from the 3 forms
I can see it shows the login box when I click on the any of the tab:
- gallery
- corrections
- subscribed
elementor is set to conditional to show the form for logged in and the login form for logged out.
many thanks
You said: "all the posts are made by the events calendar in the backend , it is only ever admin who creates the posts."
When we say "Edit Own" capability - the post should be created by the same user. But in your case post is created by the admin user and edited by the "listivo" user and you want to keep track of the content added by "listivo" user but its not possible as post is created by admin user but edited by "listivo".
Maybe you can use a trick here, please see if that helps. Create a post type XYZ (you can name if as per your requirement) and create a one to many post relationshp with Events and XYZ.
Then, create a form to add new post for XYZ post type and also edit form for XYZ post type. Then check if post is not available for the loggedin "listivo" user then present the add new post form else present the edit post form.
Now, with XYZ post type you can manage edit own, delete own etc..etc capabilities.
