    I’m trying to make it so my custom user role of “leader” only has access to view and edit 1 post.

    I have checked the box for “Activate user access management to editing selected posts, pages, custom post types” as you can see in this image User Role Editor Options

    But the option for entering post/page ID’s is not on the profile page as you can see in this imageProfile Page

    I got it to show up but it still doesn’t give the user access to the post.

    If a post was written by other author – user should have ‘edit_others_posts’ capability to be capable to edit that post. ‘Edit posts restrictions’ section does not give to the user additional capabilities, it narrows the existing permissions.

    How can I make it so that a user can only see, edit and create their own post?

    User Role Editor Pro will provide it.

    If you give to a user role ‘edit_others_posts’ capability, you have these variants how to restrict his access to the posts list:

    1) input to a user profile the only ID of the post from other author – user will can edit just the only post with that ID (or the list of posts in you input multiple IDs).

    2) input this user ID to the ‘with author user ID (comma separated)’ field. User will can see and edit its own posts only at WordPress the admin backend.
