Possibility to add participants to events

    Hi,

    My Calendar is a great plugin, I’m enjoying it very much.
    However, there is a problem, I need to find some workaround to. Is there any known way to add participants to the events? Possibly someone has already coded something for this purpose?
    I know I can probably not be so lazy and try coding it myself, I tried a little, but I’m not that proficient so it’ll take me a lot of time. ?? Just checking out if someone found some solution for this.

    Shortly on what I need:
    I’m making a training schedule. It’s important to find some drop down field to add participants from the site users. These users will get e-mail/SMS notifications about their events so I can’t just write them in event text.

    Any help/suggestions appreciated greatly! ??

    Do you mean something like an RSVP?

    Not really. I’m looking for simply a field same as author or host, but for participants.
    The main goal is to integrate My Calendar with other plugins so they would be able to read info from one another so we can automate things. For this we need a separate fields for participants in the DB.
    I mean sure, I can make something like that on my own. Just wanted to ask if there is some good idea how to handle this. I’d be surprised if I’m the first one to ask about it.

    It’s not very difficult to add custom fields to an event, so you could certainly create a custom field where you would save something like a set of user IDs. I’ve certainly had people ask for ways to have people add themselves to an event, but not so much from an admin standpoint.

    Here’s a general example showing how to create a custom field for use with My Calendar events:
