I created a new access group and applied it to a user. I then removed all permissions for that user to access a specific custom post type (R/W/etc..). However, when I login as that user they can still access that post type. What I'm trying to do is restrict access to the post type (as a whole) and then allow access to specific posts within that post type only. The problem is that there are 2,249 posts, out of which only a handful need to be visible to this group either from within views or through CRED via dynamic select fields.
Are there any known issues that would cause this to happen (posts still displaying even when the post type is restricted) - or - is there any issue with access restricted post types still being displayed to users either in views or cred when other relationships are setup. IOW, could this be an issue because this particular CPT is related to other CPTs that this user does have access to?
