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

many thnaks

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

It seems there is a confustion for you.

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.

many thanks
i have done
Create a post type XYZ
create a one to many post relationshp with Events and XYZ. (event was the one ,xyz was the many)

now

create a form to add new post for XYZ post type and also edit form for XYZ post type. ???
..................................................................................................................................................................

am i creating a post form and an edit form for the listivo user for the post type xyz ( or is it relation/user form) and it would be 3 seperate forms like it is now ?
is this form set up to replace the current forms im using ?

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.
im a little lost with this ?

Now, with XYZ post type you can manage edit own, delete own etc..etc capabilities. ok.

thank s for any clarification you can offer.....

thankyou

I see all three forms belongs to Event post that means event post will be always available. Am I right? if yes:

To manage the custom fields "gallery", "corrections" and "subscribed" per user, you will required to add "gallery", "corrections" and "subscribed" to post type XYZ as well.

So, how it will be manages, Lets assume, there is a user "imuser" which is a "listivo" user. User login as "imuser" amd visits the events page first time, so with the "gellery" or "corrections" and "subscribed" tab he will see "add new" form and there will be only one post per user.

Now, lets assume "imuser" which is a "listivo" user and he loggedin and visits the "gallery" tab and he will see "add new" form to add gallery custom field. User uploaded some images using "add new" and we will set this newly creaated post author equal to currently loggedin user that is "imuser".

Now, when "imuser" loggedin and XYZ post entry available, we will offer user edit form.

Does that makes sense?

However, you need to create three "add new" form as its not certain if user is going to add gallery first or or "corrections" and "subscribed" but as soon as user adds any of this fields information first time the post will be created and author of the post will be currently loggedin user and then we will offer edit form.

Does this makes sense?

yes you are correct.

the 3 custom post fields are available for events (trials) and xyz.

So, how it will be manages, Lets assume, there is a user "imuser" which is a "listivo" user. User login as "imuser" amd visits the events page first time, so with the "gellery" or "corrections" and "subscribed" tab he will see "add new" form and there will be only one post per user.

kind of...

but am i creating 3 new forms for user or for post ? i presume post . am i setting these 3 new forms to xyz post ? and they will be set for listivo user to only create and edit there own posts?

what user access settings do i need fo the events (trial) .
thanks for your help , its a lot more complicated than i thought it would be.

thanks again

==>
Yes - as you added the three custom field custom fields "gallery", "corrections" and "subscribed" to XYZ post type. You need to create add new form for XYZ post type:
- one form to add gallery
- one form to add "corrections"
- one form to add "subscribed"

The same way you will need three edit forms:
- one form to edit gallery
- one form to edit "corrections"
- one form to edit "subscribed"

what user access settings do i need fo the events (trial):
- There is nothing to do with evetnts now, as we created new post type XYZ and we are managing the custom fields "gallery", "corrections" and "subscribed" per user.

[martinP-13]

many thanks , ive done the 6 forms , shall i delete the original 3 forms for events (trials) now ?

and in elemento attach these new forms to the events(trials) tabs to replace the one that where currently used ?

may thanks

[Minesh]

You should not delete it but yes, replace the form under each tab as mentioned follows.

if current loggedin user has XYZ post, then you can show edit form under each tab otherwise add form under each tab.

[martinP-13]

so can a user goto event (trial) and fil in the forms or must they 1st create an xyz post ? im a bit lost with this setup to be honest
thanks for your time
martin

[Minesh]

so can a user goto event (trial) and fil in the forms:
- which form you are talking about?

As I expain before - user need to deal with XYZ add/edit form for custom field "gallery", "corrections" and "subscribed".

For instance, lets assume my username "minesh" I visit the following event:
- hidden link

Now, as I loggedin first time as "minesh" - and under tabs "gallery", "corrections" and "subscribed" as I am visiting first time, there should be no content availalbe.

Lets assume I visit "gallery" tab and it should show me add new form belongs to XYZ and give me gallery custom field. As soon as I add it, it should create a new post having gallery custom field. Now, if I visit other tabs "corrections" or "subscribed", it should show me edit form.

hi , thanks , this does not work(or to phrase it properly , i cant get it to work sorry)

i have created the post type xyz
i have created 3 forms to add new content they are set for event and xyz
i have created 3 form to edit there own content they are set for event and xyz

if i open the gallery tab and add a picture , it creates a new post xyz/.... the picture is not add to the current event im on. ive not even started on the edit form yet.

i dont see how this will ever work

events is created by admin
any logged in user can add gallery/under/corrections via the forms in the tabs
the current post is then updated to show these user uploads
any user can only edit the content they uploaded.

now the current users uploads are added to the post xyz and not the event . im about to give up on this , i don think it can be done

thannks

[martinP-13]

any thoughts on this?
thanks
