# Users can edit other users posts

 * Hello everyone!
 * I’ve just create a profile page for the users in my site, than allow to see only
   his own created posts in a list with elementor query ID and this work’s fine.
   This list have an edit button for each post, than redirect to the edit form with
   the post_id in the url, for example: [https://tradeclaimz.com/editar-tenencia/?post_id=2700](https://tradeclaimz.com/editar-tenencia/?post_id=2700)
 * The issue is, if you change the post_id to another one who doesnt belong to the
   logged user, the user can edit or even delete the post.
 * I’ve created a custom role so I can edit the WP Capabilities and leave uncheck
   the “edit_others_posts” option, but this didn’t work (I’ve attach an screenshot).
   There’s any way to edit the capabilities for the default users?
 * Besides, if I’ve set the default registration role to this custom role, in the
   members list page, I can’t see the users.
 * I don’t know where to start looking.
 * Tnx inadvance!
