    Hi!

    you made a great plugin, thank you!

    Now, I wonder if it is possible for the users, who are allowed to submit posts, to show them ALL posts?
    I have two clients who are both responsible to post news on their website and they would need to see all of their posts to edit. They have the same permission but they need seperate user logins.

    Is there a setting I have to set or are there other possibilities to get, what I need?

    Appreciate your help,
    Thank you!

  • Hello @elsadesica,

    Thank you for the compliment, we love that you are loving it ??

    Yes it will be possible for the users to edit their own posts from frontend. For default WordPress post type posts, the users will have to visit their account page. The account page is a page which is built with the shortcode [wpuf_account].

    If your news post is however not a default WP post but a custom post then your users will have to edit it from their dashboard page by default. Dashboard page is the page which is built with the shortcode [wpuf_dashboard post_type = “news”]. Here you may have to change the post type inside the shortcode.

    If you don’t want to use the Dashboard page and allow your users to edit custom post from the Account page – then let me know. I can help you with the custom code for this.

    Also it will be possible from WPUF to edit the post. For editing the post, please make sure you have set the edit page here and have enabled edit from here. Admin can review the post after submission and publish manually from WP-admin.

    regards,

    Hi!

    Thank you for your answer!
    I checked out the account page but unfortunately, it’s not really helping.

    What I need is the following: When it comes to editing existing posts, both users need to see every post with post_type news, no matter who created it.

    Currently, I use the Dashboard page where the user can see his created news but I would need him to see other users’ posts. So that would be all posts with post_type news.

    Thanks for your help!!

    Hello @elsadesica,

    It will be unavailable from WPUF to allow one author to edit another author’s post. The author can only edit his own posts.

    If you want all the authors to edit other authors’ posts, then you will be required to add proper custom code.

    regards,
