Hi all, I’ve played around with the roles for a while but can’t figure out how to add a user that can add and edit their own events only! Please help!

Thanks!! ๐Ÿ™‚

Hi Zoe,

This is possible with Roles and Permissions Pro. It will allow you to add Regions. So, you could add a “region” for each person and they will only have access to their events because they will be the only person in the “region”.

Ah, I honestly thought permissions pro came with the business licence! Any chance of getting a promo code so I can purchase this for my client? Pretty please… ๐Ÿ™‚

Can you email sales@eventespresso.com or fill out the contact form here and choose “Sales / Billing Question” from the dropdown.
Thanks.

Awesome, so I’ve got Permissions Pro – I’ve set up two test Locals to test with (obivously ๐Ÿ™‚ ) – no idea what I do next… is there any documentation for this add on?

As above, I want users to only be able to edit their own events and add new ones…

Thankssssss

Hi Zoe,

Here is the documentation on R&P Pro: https://eventespresso.com/wiki/roles-and-permissions-pro/

As I stated previously, you can add regions for each person, then assign the person to their region.

Fab, thanks Jonathan! I’ve set it all up but with a user TestClient, they are assigned to the correct local but I can’t seem to add any venue details to an event. I can add a venue in the venue section but when I add or edit an event it says:

Venue Information
You have not created any venues yet.
Add venues to the Venue Manager

There’s actually a bug that has been fixed in the next version of EE (3.1.36), but that you may be seeing in the current version (3.1.35). Open up plugins/event-espresso/includes/admin-files/functions.php and go down to line 54:

$group = unserialize($group);

and delete or comment out that line. Now scroll up to line 27 of the same file:

$group = unserialize($group);

and delete or comment out that line as well.
If you have any problems doing so, then let us know and we’ll need ftp access to the site to apply the fix.

Thanks for that, I can now see venues when logged in as my Test Client – however I can see and add events for all venues, even ones that arent assigned to the user – should that be the case?


Sidney Harrell

I did some testing and from what I can tell, you need to have at least one region assigned to a regional manager in order to keep them from seeing the regions that are not assigned to them. I’ll see if I can work up a fix for this.

Ah I see, that’s cool I can work around that!

I checked into it, and that’s the way it’s supposed to be. Until you lock a regional manager into a region, they can access all regions. We’ll get that added to the documentation.
