Custom post types permissions

Navigate to the custom post type list. You'll notice a yellowish link named Permissions at the end of every row. Click it to open the permission manager:

For a particular user role, you can set two specific permissions for the selected post type:

  • Edit - if it's flagged, the user role can edit the custom post type

  • Edit private - if it's flagged, the user role can edit private custom post types

  • Edit published - if it's flagged, the user role can edit published custom post types

  • Edit others - if it's flagged, the user role can edit custom post types belonging to other users

  • Publish - if it's flagged, the user role can publish the custom post type (no need for approval)

  • Read - if it's flagged, the user role can view and read the custom post type

  • Delete - if it's flagged, the user role can delete the custom post type

  • Delete private - if it's flagged, the user role can delete private custom post types

  • Delete published - if it's flagged, the user role can delete published custom post types

  • Delete others - if it's flagged, the user role can delete custom post types belonging to other users
