Can app be set so event admin can only see event they're assinged to?

We plan on setting up several events for several different organizations. How can we set it up so that the admin can only see their event when they log in to their event?

We don’t want our partners to be able to get into everyone else’s events.

Hi there,

The apps can make use of the built in User Capabilities system in Event Espresso 4. Here’s a link to the app documentation that explains more:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/ee4-event-apps/#capabilities

In addition to the above, when you go to set up the event admin capabilities, you don’t give the accounts the capabilities that start with
ee_read_others_

Ok, thank you. So I have created an account and assigned them the role of Event Administrator. I checked the capabilities list and made sure that the required capabilities were assigned. But then when I try to log into the app I get an error message advising that I do not have the correct permission. It reads “Sorry you are not allowed to list events. Missing permissions: ee_read_events, ee_read_others_events, ee_read_private_events”
So I am unable to log in to the app.

You’ll need to follow the mobile app documentation’s troubleshooting steps:

Can multiple event admins be assigned to one event? We’d like to have multiple people being able to check people in at the door.

No, but you can assign the event to one user account (they’ll actually be set as the Author of the event), then use the Application Passwords plugin to set up additional passwords for that user account. This way each person will have their own unique password when they log into the app.
