Was there ever a solution to this post:

Does EE4 have a way to associate People with WP users, so that each instructor can view his/her own attendee lists?

Hi there,

EE does not have a method to associate ‘People’ with a WP User account, however, if you set that “Person’s” users account as the author of the event you can set EE to only show that user ‘their’ events/registrations within the admin.

Would that work?

They would see a limited version of what you (the site admin) see within EE.

Note that we (support) don’t monitor the community forums closely as they were added as a method for event managers to share solutions and questions etc rather for us to provide support on.

however, if you set that “Person’s” users account as the author of the event you can set EE to only show that user ‘their’ events/registrations within the admin.

So I tried to make one of the instructors’ user accounts with an “Event Creator” role, I could not assign her as the author of the event, and she didn’t have any view of EE at all in the admin area.

When I switched her role to “Event Administrator”, I could assign her as the author of the event, but now she has view of almost everything in admin, not just her own events.

Is there a different role I should use? What is the correct way to do what you suggest?

Hi,

First, you’ll need to install one of these plugins:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/members/
or
https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-role-editor/

Either of the above plugins will allow you to edit a role’s capabilities. In other words, you can add capabilities or remove capabilities to a role.

From there, you could take either approach:
1) Remove capabilities from the Event Administrator role
or
2) Add capabilities to your custom “Event Creator” role.

The documentation includes a detailed Google doc that outlines each capability:
