Hi, I want to give a user the permissions to view his posts only. The posts that were made by him. Is this possible?

The discussion is about custom user permissions in Discourse. MostafaXdev wants to allow users to view only their own posts. merefield suggests creating a category for each user and permissioning it for their respective group.
MostafaXdev has created a custom page for users to apply using a wizard plugin and wants to limit their view to their own applications. downey proposes creating private messages to a group for applications, while pfaffman recommends using user custom fields for questions.
MostafaXdev considers adding users to a group, and merefield agrees that sending a message with the wizard is a viable option.
This is not really a use case for which Discourse is primarily designed. It’s about sharing. So expect some pain in getting that to work.
One option:
Set up a Category for each user and put the user into their own Group. Permission the Category for that Group.
For applications have you considered them being created as private messages to a group? The reviewers would see all of them but the sender/poster would see only their own.
Then once the applicant is added to the necessary groups they could see the rest of the site’s content.
No, I made it so it creates a topic.
I recommend that you put those questions into user custom fields.
That’s not a bad idea! You can send a message with the wizard.
