How do you assign a different role to be able to ADD / EDIT events?

Hello,

Is it possible to have multiple role(s) that is a duplicate of the “Espresso Master Admin” role?

I have multiple roles that I have tried to set with the same capabilities as the “Espresso Master Admin” but the role can only ADD their own event and they cannot EDIT their own event.

Also, where is the list of capabilities located to remove capabilities from it?

Thank you.

Hello Michael,

You need to change the user’s roles in their user account. Just select the “Event Master Admin” role in the dropdown and save.

The list of capabilities is under the User Permissions option in the Event Espresso Menu.

Thank you Jonathan, but I have different multiple roles in which each have different capabilities. I would like to assign Events management to 3 different roles which are NOT the Event Master Admin role. Is this possible, if so how?

In regards to the capabilities, I referring to where in the back-end table of the database are they stored?

Thanks again.

Any idea(s) on this?

Role A – Has Event Management capabilities
Role B – Doesn’t have Event Management capabilities
Role C – Has Event Management capabilities
Role D – Has Event Management capabilities
Role E – Doesn’t have Event Management capabilities

Right now the roles that HAVE Event Managment Capabilities can only ADD event but CANNOT EDIT their own events.

Thank you.

Hello Michael,

Sorry for the delay. The capabilities are stored in the wp_usermeta table in the wp_capabilities field, just as WordPress core roles are saved.

May I log into the site so we can investigate further? If so, please send WordPress admin level log in credentials via the contact form on this page: https://eventespresso.com/contact/
