    Take a look at the following documentation page on Roles & Capabilities with Pods and WordPress:

    https://docs.pods.io/advanced-topics/roles-capabilities-in-wordpress/

    Any handling of who can edit what is outside the scope of our Support as that is handled (once you’ve configured your post type) under your Membership/roles plugin.

    if you create a custom capability like directory_*, you have to manage those capabilities being assigned to user roles, as our article explained. We do not perform that function, nor will we as that is outside the scope of our plugin. Roles & Capabilities are managed by WordPress and plugins like Members and other membership plugins.

    Users/Authors are assigned to Roles. Roles are granted or denied specific capabilities that determine what they are able to do. If you create a custom role, you assign that to the user, but every bit of that is outside of Pods. The only thing Pods does in this particular situation is define what capabilities are supported by the post type, as we discuss in that article.
