The client owns the website, not me, so I never restrict access, unless they ask me to create an "editor" role. Especially since I'm a "one-person-shop" and if anything ever happened to me I want to make sure that the client has complete control. However, I leave tutorial videos and instructions in the Dashboard teaching the client how to make basic content changes to the website. There are usually 2 videos, one for ACF areas I have setup for the most common content change areas (like team members, or the options pages with hours of operation, photo galleries, etc.) The second video is for any "on page edits" they may make, where there isn't an ACF field, and I strongly encourage them to not touch any elements or page structure. It has worked well for me, and I have applied this to well over 200+ websites I have built over the years. Very few issues, and one of my big selling points when I sit down with prospective clients. They aren't "renting" a website build from me, I will create a website they "own".
Simply an amazing video! Thank you so much for producing this. Until I saw this video, I had no idea of how powerful this feature was. Please keep creating videos of AT features. 🙏 Users of AT have been begging for good documentation or tutorial videos, but sadly, the documentation is limited, and the videos make me pass out headfirst into my desk.
It's a different approach. Gutenbricks would probably provide flexibility as the end user can pick the patterns they want to include in the page. AT locks the features but doesn't alloy you to change the design.
It depends. I thinks it's very nice to provide GB to keep consistant editiong, and not going back and forth between GB and Bricks. But to have this functionality from AT and use it on templates, popups etc is very handy.
Most of my clients have no idea how to run or update their site and don't want to know, so they don't even have a login, or if they do, they never use it.
