Hello,

How do I limit the roles/access of registered users? I want the default to = they can only see and access the listings that they entered.

Currently, registered user can see all listings and might even have access to back end of site.

Hello,

GD only uses the subscriber role.

In the first settings page for GD you can find a setting to exclude any role from the backend, so, you can add subscriber there and be confident general users cannot enter the backend.

GD does not offer a feature related to hiding listings on the frontend from one user or role.

Roles in that field cannot access the backend at all, ever.

You can change the role in the WP settings, but by default it is set to Subscriber. GD will not change the user role, ever.
