• Hi,

    I’m currently testing Events Manager on an MU network site and I’m trying to work out if this is correct behaviour or not.

    I’ve logged in with a basic ‘subscriber’ role user and accessed the back-end. This user is able to see and edit any event they like. This seems very strange.

    They have events ‘edit’ editing capability rights but they do not have ‘edit others’ or ‘publish’ rights.

    I would have expected them to only be able to edit their own ‘events’ to which they’ve not actually created any (yet)

    Is this normal?

  • Hi Robin,

    I’m not seeing this on my test site. Are you sure you’re not just viewing a list of events which can’t be clicked on and edited? That’s what supposed to happen.

    Can you let us know the capabilities you have checked for that user role under Events > Settings > General > User Capabilities? Thanks.

    The subscriber role has

    delete_events
    edit_events
    read_private_events
    delete_recurring_events
    edit_recurring_events
    edit_locations
    read_private_locations
    read_others_locations
    manage_bookings
    upload_event_images

    all TICKED. Rest are not ticked

    The edit button is available and I can actually save the event after modifying it.

    I am using Press Permit Pro & Capability Manager Enhanced plugins which are working just fine with every other plugin.

    When I grant ‘page’ edit rights as a supplementary role on top of the ‘Subscriber’ role the issue occurs. It shouldn’t as ‘events’ is not a ‘page’. It’s a custom post type, correct?

    I am thinking of purchasing the pro version of this plugin if I can get the plugin working properly with the above 2 plugins.

    Thanks

    Robin
