I have Permissions Basic installed. I also have the members plugin.
Here is what I would like to achieve:
I am a super Admin.
I have some managers here that should have full access to all events/questions/venues/emails as well as some basic WordPress permissions that I would like to pick and choose. Seems like the role that comes out of the box, Espresso Master Admin, works for these folks.
I have some other “editors” here that should be able to see others events and attendee data but not have the ability to edit or delete another persons event.
–What I tried:
I followed the docs and then edited the Espresso Master Admin role to deny the ability to edit others events but I was still able to go in and edit.
Since that didn’t for me I assumed I needed to keep Espresso Master Admin as a Master role and needed to create an additional role (I used the members plugin) and granted some permissions, such as ee_edit_published_events, however I was then unable to edit even my own (closed) event.
I can give access if you want to take a look, or provide screenshots, let me know.
Its working fine to show/hide specific pages on the dashboard but the actual capabilities don’t seem to be really doing anything. I suppose I may need the pro version of this add-on…
It turns out that the Pro add-on for the Permissions plugin will add the Event Manager role and it can be set up to not edit others events.
You can also roll your own solution by setting up an espresso_event_manager role and give this role the espresso_event_manager capability. In this case, the espresso_event_manager role should not get the espresso_event_admin or espresso_group_admin capabilities.
