Feature request for this please, Adriano.

(I had approached Fosters about adapting his Page Authors plugin for Calendar. He was going to do it but has just confirmed that he's currently too busy and would be happy for someone else to implement it.)

My wish is to optionally allow certain users to create and edit their events on particular calendars even if their membership group can't. The alternative is having to create additional secondary membership groups. That would be a nightmare after a while.

User case: I have a couple of friends who run events in London. I would like them to be able to add these events to their own calendar but I don't want to create a membership group just for them. Imagine if I had ten cases like this!

What I'd prefer to do is create a new calendar and then have the option of adding users to it, so that they can use the calendar even if their membership group doesn't have permission to.

Does this seem like something you'd be happy to introduce into this resource?

No, sorry. 

[Meddysong]

OK, understood.

I don't think you've copied your Copy Events plugin into this one, have you?

(I'm sure we've had this conversation before but it looks like the replies have been removed.)

Are you planning to fold it into Enhancements?

I see it speaks about moderators with permission to move content having copy permission. How about adjusting so that members can copy their own content too? Is that possible?

[Adriano Faria]

Yes, I will. Didn’t have the time yet but it will be there soon. 

[jmw253]

Would it be possible to maybe add a feature that allows you to invite certain groups by default? Like as a moderator or admin, bulk invite all members or at least generate a notification that the event exists and to check it out?

Does this allow you to add members after the event has already passed? I'm thinking of using this as a way to track actual event attendance for historical events.

Probably yes. I don’t remember any restrictions like that. Will test andwill  let you know.

Yes, just tested and you are able to add attendees in passed events.

[Fighting 13th]

Awesome! I'm looking at getting this here shortly then.

Would it be possible to add the option to choose different colors for each event? That way people can color code events on their Calendar without having to make multiple Calendars.

You mean to show different collors here?

[JoshB84]

Yes

[Adriano Faria]

What about event view?

It already shows the color in the Calendar name.

[JoshB84]

I mean would it be possible to add an option to choose a different color for each event. Where instead of pulling the Calendar color. You would have an option to pick an event color. Currently using IPB Calendar we have to create a whole separate calendar just to make an event color change.

I am making a calendar full of Jewish Hollidays but I would like them to be color coded. I think it would be a lot simpler to just create one Calendar and change the event colors on it. Versus having to create multiple Calendars and then adding the events to one Calendar.

[Adriano Faria]

I understand what you requested. I'm asking what or where to display the event  color in the event view.

[JoshB84]

Oh, sorry about my misunderstanding. Next to the Calendar name would be great.

[Adriano Faria]

Ok. I'll give some thought to a new version.

[JoshB84]

Thank you very much!

What's New in Version 1.0.1:

• Added ability to filter events by Venue.

[Nam Fuego]

Hi Adriano, thanks for creating the "filter by venue" option for calendar enhancements.
Im curious to know if the filter by venue option works for filtering locations?

Example, instead of filtering by venue, a user can filter by countries or cities?

[Adriano Faria]

No. Location is not a “searchable” field. 

[Adriano Faria]

What's New in Version 1.0.2:

• Added new setting to display a countdown to the events start date on Upcoming Events widget.

[Ramey]

Is there a way for a user to leave a comment when RSVPing? For example... if the event requires that people bring some kind of food the RSVP could prompt them for what they're bringing at the same time they say "Going". 

 

[Adriano Faria]

No.
