admin cannot submit new events on frontend

Hello,

we experience an issue with submission rights. My customers has admin rights and would of course like to edit and submit events in frontend. But it does not work, it always ends up in an error message, that says something about too many redirects.

I looked into configuration in backend and found the options button where it seems that rights are to be set. But whenever I set administrator rights for frontend submission to "allowed" and click "save" the content of that window switches to joomla global configuration which cannot be saved on that website because of another joomla issue (too many user groups).

Is there any possibility to allow administrators to submit events in frontend, too?

Hi

If you cannot save the permission settings because your site has so many groups (this bug is something related to limitation of Joomla), I think you will need to edit code to allows administrator to submit events. Do you know programming ? Please try to look at the file components/com_eventbooking/helper/helper.php, find the function checkAddEvent and customize it .

Hello Tuan,

thank you for your quick and detailed reply.

I am afraid I do not know enough about coding to customize that function properly. Could you give me please that piece of code that is needed to insert into that helper.php so that admin may submit events from frontend?

Thank you.

Hello? Did you read my question above?

No answer within 3 weeks? :ohmy:

My customer is not amused about that, he paid for this component.

Sorry. I missed this forum post. Please submit a support ticket sending us administrator and FTP account of your site so that we can edit the code for you.

I am going to do that immediately.

OK ! It is 10:20pm here now, so I will check it on tomorrow morning for you !
