Reply To: ACF and Custom Roles

This works for me, the custom role can create and modify his ‘presentacion’ but not the ones of other users…
But ACF needs a capability ‘edit_others_posts’ or in this case ‘edit_others_presentaciones’ to work, if the role doesn’t have this capability the ACF fields don’t work. ( in backend).

But meanwhile I think I found a solution in making frontend forms to edit the ‘presentaciones’, I’ve seen that in the frontend the ACF fields works fine without these capabilities.

<?php 
  
  // Register Presentacion Post Type

    $labels = array(
      'name' => _x( 'Presentaciones', 'Post Type General Name', 'text_domain' ),
