Multi user calendar

[Alex Cleanthous]

I am looking for some help setting up the calendar so that multiple users can come in and add calendar events.

A user would have a log in and only the ability to reserve time on the calendar. Are there features within the plugin to do this, or do I need to setup separate WP logins?

Thank you!

Good evening Alex and welcome to the Events Calendar forum!

Thank you for your interest in our products.
We’ll be glad to answer your questions.

I am looking for some help setting up the calendar so that multiple users can come in and add calendar events.

To do that, you will need to grab a copy of our Community Events add-on: https://theeventscalendar.com/product/wordpress-community-events/

The installation process is pretty straightforward as you can see here: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/new-user-primer-community-events/

A user would have a log in and only the ability to reserve time on the calendar. Are there features within the plugin to do this, or do I need to setup separate WP logins?

These features (and more) are all found in the above add-on. That being said, a lot of people enjoy using that plugin in combination with a third-party plugin such as theme my login (to have more control over the login screens and stay in the front-end).

That being said, if you also need the users to be able to add and sell tickets, you will require 2 extra add-ons: Events Tickets Plus and Community Tickets.
The good news is that they come in a bundle which will save you some money and give you access to our Filter Bar add-on on top of it all.

Check it out here: https://theeventscalendar.com/bundles/bundle-community-manager/

Let me know if that helps.

Have a great day!

Thanks Geoff! Ive got a follow up question below.

What do you mean by “theme my login control”? I was trying to figure out if i could create multiple users via WP and have them have access to event creation that way.

Good evening Alex,

Thank you for writing back.

What do you mean by “theme my login control”? I was trying to figure out if i could create multiple users via WP and have them have access to event creation that way.

The plugins I have talked to you about do exactly what you are looking for. You don’t actually need anything else.

I did mention the following plugin in passing (there are others that are similar to it): https://wordpress.org/plugins/theme-my-login/

The reason for that is because it integrates nicely with our plugins and gives you additional features such as:

• Complete customization of a front-end based login screen
• Complete customization of a front-end based user profile screen
• And other great features

But, this was merely a suggestion to get even more features should you want them. You absolutely do not need to use this plugin unless you want to 🙂

Let me know if that helps.

Have a great day!

Geoff B.

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
