Is there anyway to manipulate the program, or by going in manually through the database, to allow multiple user accounts log-in to have access in administering the same posts? I have a property rental website (which I am in the process of redesigning) http://www.ohiovalleyrentals.com/, and the user would like me to create another log-in to add posting for his account, or to be able to view and edit his current listings. Any possible prompt reply/direction would be appreciated.

How about creating a user with "Editor" access to the section?

Then they could edit posts created by other users.

That would work if all the users were sharing/managing the same set of properties, but they all are not. They all manage their own individual properties, but list them together as an organization (along the idea of rent.com or apartments.com).

Basically what I have is a number of users (currently 15-20, but that number will grow) who all list and manage their own properties. They do not want other users to have access to their listings. But, they would like to be able to have multiple user accounts (even two is good) to manage the same set of postings. So, I am looking for a way in to create than one account which has access to the same records. I didn't know if I would be able to edit the data base manually in any way after creating the account through the interface to provide this type of access or not. Does this make sense?
