Hi,
which overhead columns (detail view = eye icon, edit publish/unpublish button) are showed in the frontend data views depends on settings which you make in the form, in the field and how you publish the form (menu item type or plugin data view).
I have tried to give a comprehensive overview over these complex topic in the documentation:
www.vi-solutions.de/en/documentations/vi...er-inputs-in-frotend
(You'll find links for further reading there, too)
Nevertheless, if a user belongs to a group, which does not have the permission to publish data, then the user will not see a publish/unpublish button. As visForms is used by thousands of users and bugs are usually fixed within days and nobody has ever mentioned such a problem, I'm sure, that you have either not set up the permissions properly for visForms or you log in with a user which does actually belong to another group then you think.
Regards,
Aicha
