SOLVED: Restricting edit fields to event creator.

Hello Tuan,

My site will allow the creation of events using the "Submit Event - Simple Layout" menu option.
Having set the parameters in "Submit Event Form Fields" within the configuration tab, all is as I want.

However, upon testing, if a user creates an event, publishes it and then uses the edit event function on the frontend, they are presented with the option to alter the fields I blocked within the "Submit Event Form Fields: section.

Thus, they can alter options such as:

Show custom registration URL
Show notification emails
PayPal email
Show access
Show registration access

How can I stop these fields from being visible and editable within the Event Edit area of the frontend please? If I can block them from event submission, surely I can block them from the edit screen too?

Many thanks,
Julian.

Hi Julian

I would say that they should not be allowed to edit the fields unless there is some problem with the code

Maybe you should go to Events Booking -> Configuration, look at Themes tab, set Frontend event submission form layout config option to Simple Layout, then check it again first? If the error still happens, please submit a support ticket sending us:

- Super admin account
- An event owner account
- Link to edit event page

I will check to see what's wrong and get it sorted

Regards,

Tuan

Dear Tuan,

I am such a prat, I thought I had set that option but obviously I had missed it! My fault as usual!

I shall recommend you be nominated for the Noble Prize for Excellent Service Levels.....

Many thanks,

. Thanks for your nice words Julian. Please continue setting up and using the extension. If you have other questions or need help, please don't hesitate to ask
