 * I would like to be able to make some form fields read only. For instance when
   displaying posts on the edit page, the user can only change the content. Title,
   image, etc are displayed in the form but cannot be changed.
    Is this possible
   with the plug-in. I don’t see an option to make this work in the form editor.

 * Hello [@marjolein64](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marjolein64/)
    Thanks
   for writing to us,
 * I’m sorry to say, but such a specific option to restrict fields to update/edit
   is unavailable. However, if you want to review & restrict to publish a post after
   editing, then you can tweak the form Edit setting post status [into the pending review (or do nothing will be applicable for all the fields)](http://prntscr.com/voqhqb)
 * I hope this will helps.
    Regards.
