Post Type Error

    So it seems the plugin allows you to create frontend “Forms” that submit Post Types set on a per-form basis. Users can post okay, e.g. I can set a post type “Pet” (as in animal), and these posts will be added successfully by the frontend user.

    However, in the frontend *user* pages – e.g. dashboard – there is zero way of controlling what kind of post types are handled, so it only deals with standard post type posts. And so all my users see is: “You have created 0 Posts…. No Posts found”

    Even though they have created custom post type posts using this very plugin’s forms!

    Am I going crazy? I hope so. Am I missing a setting somewhere? Could really do with some help?

    Seems like a great plugin, but am struggling with the backend settings very much.

  • Hello There,
    Thanks for your message,

    In the WPUF Account/Dashboard page by default, users can only access the default post types posts from the frontend side. And if you want to let your users manage any custom post types (like Product) posts from the My Account/Dashboard page then you need to insert custom code. Rather than, you can also create a custom post type dashboard with a WPUF shortcode like this documentation.

    Asie, if you want to create a custom post type section/menu (like- product) on the Account page then you can insert this script/codes in your theme/child theme’s functions.php file.

    I hope this will be helpful to you,
    Cheers!

    Wow, I love it. It works perfectly.

    Thanks so much.

    Is it a pro feature to have meta values appear in the table of posts?

    I have a table of ‘dogs’ and I want to have meta field ‘breed’ appear as a column next to Title, Edit, Delete, etc.

    Hello @harryfear
    Thanks for your reply again,

    Sorry to say but this type of certain option is unavailable with WPUF. But if you want to customize on your own then you can follow this doc to learn how you can add another column in the Dashboard.

    FYC, this is the formated code of the above-mentioned documentation. Insert these scripts on your theme/child theme’s functions.php file.

    I hope this will be helpful to you,
    Cheers,
