    Hi, I am using the plugin and have a question. When you setup the group capabilities, is that for every user in that group? I have a custom post type created and have given access to the group to edit/view/delete private posts. But if user_1 from group_1 creates a post user_2 from group_1 can’t edit it. If I allow edit_other_posts then user_2 can edit posts from users from group_2. How do I give access to edit posts for all users in group_1 to a post that was created by a user from group_1, but not editing posts from users from group_2?

    Hi,
    It’s not possible with WordPress standard permissions model. User can edit just his own posts or all posts with ‘edit_others_posts’ capability added. More granular access restriction require additional coding.

    User Role Editor Pro includes ‘Edit posts/pages/custom posts types restrictions” add-on. If you are interested pay attention on a complex example at the very end of the article.
