 * Hi,
 * I installed UM 1.3.68 on my webpage and created new members group – VIP. Unfortunately
   members of VIP can’t write a post from Frontend (Post button doesn’t exist)

 * Hi,
 * Under Ultimate Member > User Roles, be sure that the option force hiding adminbar
   in frontend is set to no. Also sync the user role with the WP native role sufficient
   to allow posting.
 * Best regards,
    Rob

 * In order to allow your users to **post**, you have to allow them to have access
   to the admin panel. Best to my knowledge, there is no way in free UM to do this
   at the front end. This implies that your “VIP” users have to be WP ‘authors’.

 * Other Group – “members” haven’t problems with posting from front end. Members
   have 2 additional buttons on the profil page – “my post” & “add post”

 * Are you on paid UM version subscription? I’ve never seen those buttons you described
   available anywhere in version 1.3.26.

 * OK Thanks. I didn’t know there was a button to post from a profile page in ultimate
   member.
 * I work with a modified an older version of my own. I use WPUF (user front end)
   and Frontier, so that’s 2 plugins to handle any authorized users who can do blog
   posting.
 * On one, users can post from their UM profile tab called ‘Add Post’ and can see
   their posts in the next tab called ‘My Blogs’.
 * The other plugin allows users to edit any posts directly from the front end, 
   but that’s not all, they can also moderate, tag, change categories, trash and
   even ban ips.
 * It’s full control for both the admin and users. And one can set permission roles
   anyway one wants it…

 * sorry my mistake, i’m also using WPUF. Maybe there ist problem with this plugin
   and not with UM?

 * Sorry, the UM plugin authors are nice enough to allow me to post here thus I 
   won’t be discussing _WPUF_ as I’d be breaking the rules. That said, it looks 
   like you might have answered your own question already…
