[Resolved] User group access on specific posts

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

Problem: I would like to allow Access WPML groups to edit specific posts in other languages.

Solution: Hi, at this time Access does not offer the ability to specify read/write permissions per language, per User, per post or per CPT. To achieve that type of granular control, you might be able to use inline Access Controls or Conditional HTML code on the front-end of your site to restrict access to specific parts of your site content, like individual CRED forms or specific post custom fields. However, enforcing those access rules on the backend isn't possible with the current software. That would require a custom code solution.

I have a user group which is able to edit only one language and it is working pretty fine!
But is it possible this user group to have read/write access to specific posts on other languages of a specific CPT?

Thank you!
