How did I miss that?!?!

Thank you so much, sorry for the goofy question!

I am actually already using that plugin, and it does not work with your plugin. Accordions are not listed within the settings page, nor does the duplicate show up on the accordions.

Okay, so I figured it out. It is an issue with the serve_on_board permission. I have a demosite that I test a lot of plugins and stuff on, so I went back to that with a clean install. I uninstalled every single plugin except user role editor and yours.
I then added the serve_on_board to author, and it did not work. HOWEVER, when I added the role board_member to any user, it did in fact work.
The problem in the original site was that I had boardMembers as a role, not board_members. Once I changed the role name, I could add anyone to the board list. This means that the ability to serve on the board is not tied to the serve_on_role ability, but to the board_members role.

Just wondering, with the testing, the other capabilities edit_committee etc all work when I apply them to a role. I wonder if the serve_on_board capability is not communicating properly – since the others all are working when applied. If I could have it integrated into the role so that when the roles change for the users, they are automatically on or off the board – that could solve my issue.

I would not think so. When you create a role and give it permissions, it has those permissions. I tried anyway – to change the author to serve_on_board along with the others, to no avail. I still get to the board page, with only the button to add a new person to the board, not to add the self, or add another. It looks exactly like the picture in my previous post.
I really, really just want a button next to add new that says add existing. If I can’t add an existing person to this as simply as that, then I truly cannot use this plugin. I am handing this off to people who will not be using the user role editor at all.

I triple checked, and unfortunately, mine was already set up how you have it.
1. I went into user role editor and (laziness prevailed) I gave full capabilities to the role “President”

2. I then checked the person in the president role, and he is also a “board member” role.

3. I then checked the user list of people on the board list…

So then I logged in with a test case that I did the same thing with and can add events and committees, but I cannot add myself to the committee, or to the board list. The committees all list 0 members.

Sorry about the late reply. I can definitely add multiple roles, and gave someone else the role Board Member. It shows up in their profile to be able to “click here if no longer on the board” but it does not list them in any of the board lists. I made sure those capabilities were part of the role too. In the profile it lists whether they would like to serve on a committee, and even when I click that, it does not register within the board system that they are on the board, or the committee.

is there anyone that will take a look at this?

WOOT!!!! thank you caimin!! that did the trick.

Click here to add our calendar to your Google Calendar.

Takes you to your logged in google calendar and asks if you want to subscribe, then adds all of the events to your calendar. ??

no events have showed up on my site, though I have waited for it to refresh just in case ( I know how long google takes to grab external calendars sometimes). Is there a way to ensure I am using the right feed for the whole calendar, between the “mysite.com/events/feed”; “mysite.com?ical=1” and “mysite.com/events.ics”?

While that is on the right path, I am not looking for someone to enter in every event. I want them to be able to subscribe to the WHOLE CALENDAR.

After a lot of searching elsewhere, I found this:
<a href="https://www.google.com/calendar/render?cid=https://location-of-calendar-file" target="_blank">Click here to add our calendar to your Google Calendar.</a>

then I went and tried to find the rss feed address by adding [events_rss_url] within the events page and viewing it and added it to my widget sidebar.

I am still playing with it, with a few errors on what I think is google’s side, but I will let you know when I find the answer.

EDIT:
So i have it “working” It goes to google, asks if I want to add it to my calendars, does so, then says “The address that you provided did not contain a calendar in a valid iCal or GData format”

I used the “mysite.com/events/feed” that I found for the RSS feed. I also tried “mysite.com?ical=1” and “mysite.com/events.ics” just to be sure.

I changed my rss feed of events in the settings section to all, and the error went away, but so far no events have shown up in my calendar.

Yes, I saw that, but from what I understand all that does is give them the link of the calendar, not a link to subscribe to it. They have to then take that link and copy it into their own calendar service – which means I need to give instructions on how to do this for every popular calendar service.
I would much rather an automated button that does this for the client. You click “subscribe with gcal” and it goes to gcal and asks if you want to add this calendar. Done. I want the people who use technology, but really have no idea how to customize it, to be able to add this calendar to theirs without any effort.

Yes, I saw that, but did not know if it was complete. It was created so long ago that I figured the developer would have been added to the plugin directly if the code was working.

Where do I place it with, im guessing, ftp? Does it have to be in a particular directory within the events manager plugin for it to work?
