If you want to completely tailor the access restrictions at a capability level for your Pods, you need to look at the Roles & Capabilities Component of Pods. This is activated under Pods Admin, Components, Roles & Capabilities.
This makes use of the Members plugin, which allows you to see ALL the capabilities for a particular role and easily select or deselect those capabilities. It also allows you to create new Roles (like a special version of Author) that only has access or special access to edit particular Pods. You also have the ability once you activate this to completely tailor which roles/capabilities have access to particular fields as well and it also activates it at the Post level. It’s very powerful.
Yes thanks for coming back – I realise about Roles and Components and have Members installed but it seems to function for all PODs not just a particular Custom Post Type, is this not the case?
No not for specific Pods. If you’re looking to control specific Pods, you’re either going to need to remove them based on Roles within your Admin, with Admin Menu Editor, White Label CMS or Adminize. You can control the visibility and editability at the field level within Pods.
We can’t completely handle everything within Pods that WordPress provides to manage the back-end, but we try to provide what we can. Usually if there’s something not handled by us, it’s handled within WordPress.
