# custom post type permissions

 * [7 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-post-type-permissions/)
 * Using the Ultimate Member plugin 2.0.33 (wordpress 4.9.8)
 * The theme that I am using uses custom post types to populate things like the 
   slider, and various sections on the homepage.
 * I want to grant a user role permissions to edit some of those sections.
 * However…. granting them the right to edit posts does not permit them to do so
   and there is no option listed for the various custom post types. I know those
   types are exposed, since my custom slider and another custom category page allow
   the segregation/display of specific custom post types…
 * So, how can I use the role editor in Ultimate Member to grant permissions to 
   edit specific post types to a role?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcustom-post-type-permissions%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_
