Hi,

When you create an event, you can select an organiser. This organiser receives mails when someone registers for the event. What permission is needed to have someone selectable as organiser. At this moment it seems to be admin permissions. Event manager permission does not allow me to select them as organisers.

Hi Geert,

Do you mean setting the user as the Event Author? – http://take.ms/JvP0i

In order to appear in that Author box that Tony showed you, they need the capability to create events. You can grant those capabilities to their user role with a plugin like Members or User Role Editor. Once you have one of those plugins activated, you add these capabilities to their role:

ee_read_default_price_types
ee_read_default_prices
ee_read_default_ticket
ee_read_default_tickets
ee_read_ee
ee_read_event
ee_read_events
ee_read_others_events
ee_publish_events

Im sorry, but I did what you suggested but that doesnt work. It still doesnt allow me to select that user as an organiser

Hi Geert,

There’s no need to apologize. Can you try adding the Contributor role to your Event Manager role?

That seems to work. So this means that I need to give all these users the contributer role?

You could do that, or you edit the actual role, then it should apply to everyone who already has the Event Manager role.

I dont get that. It seems the only solution is give the users contributor roles

You can also add the role to their account if you have the Members plugin activated.
