    Hi,

    Regarding the frontend dashboard, we've had a note for this case "To let users view and edit their submitted posts ...", please read more here
    https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-frontend-submission/#user-posts-dashboard
    I will inform the development team to consider supporting this case in future updates.

    Regarding the field switch, there is a space before the field ID so it won't be saved data to the database. Please re-check the field ID, screenshot https://share.getcloudapp.com/6quYgbxp
    And read more on the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/field-settings/#general

    Ok, on the "Switch Fields" issue, I will look at the switch fields again but I think if this is an issue, it should cast an error or get filtered in the process, but not just "do nothing". It also would have been nice to see your solution without having to ask again?

    Yes I read that too. Good that the dev team might consider it because in ACF this is a non issue - easy to do.

    You seem to miss questions I ask previously, (I am not sure why), so I will ask this one again. (I'm willing to break up questions into their own threads if that's what it takes?) Maybe I am asking too much in the same thread and in your rush, you are missing my questions?

    Is there way for me to construct what I need in MB to achieve my goal? until the MB devs make this possible with "Dashboard"?

    If so, what resources can you point me to to accomplish this? I can't possibly be the only person wanting to do this right? It says in the documentation that it is but it does not say how it's done in MB. No working example.

    Hi,

    Thank you for pointing it out.

    Is there way for me to construct what I need in MB to achieve my goal? until the MB devs make this possible with "Dashboard"?
    I think I've answered this question in this reply.
    Currently, it is not possible to customize the dashboard to let a user role edit posts of other users on the frontend. You can allow them to edit posts on the backend (admin area).

    Sorry Long but I don't think you have. Again, I don't think you are reading very carefully or there is some kind of language issue possibly?

    s there way for me to construct what I need in MB to achieve my goal? until the MB devs make this possible with "Dashboard"?

    If so, what resources can you point me to to accomplish this? I can't possibly be the only person wanting to do this right? It says in the documentation that it is but it does not say how it's done in MB. No working example.

    How can I do this without Dashboard then?

    Hi,

    There is no way with Meta Box for now. You can try to use another plugin like
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-user-frontend/
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-submitted-posts/
    But I'm not sure if it can work with Meta Box.

    You are clear that I am asking how to duplicate this WITHOUT "Dashboard" yes?

    I find it really hard to believe that there is not a way with Metabox to accomplish this when this would be a very common requirement for a web based app to expose all posts of a type to a group identified by Role/capability.

    This is VERY easy and most common to do in ACF.

    Hi,

    Thanks for your feedback. But I think it's just the design of the development team to use the frontend dashboard. I've created a feature request for the development team to support this feature in future updates. You can also create your feedback in the public roadmap here https://trello.com/b/OCOz26GM/meta-boxs-public-roadmap

    Thanks.
