Hi Cliff,

I must have replied before you edited your reply – sorry about that! I went down that path using the author ID and it’s all working now. Thanks so much for getting me on the right track. And sorry for straying into customization – I just didn’t want to reinvent the wheel if this was a function you had tucked away somewhere 🙂

Or, much less desirable but maybe – a way to dynamically add the User ID as a category or tag when users submit their event and then pull the events that way?

I’m thinking it’d be very similar to the code used to show “My Events” in Community Events, except connected to the user you’re viewing, not the user you’re logged in as?

Hi Cliff,

Thanks for your quick reply! Unfortunately there will be cases where the artist won’t be listing themselves as the Organizer (such as in a festival etc). So I can’t rely on that.

I’m happy to use a template tag if that helps. Just something to pull all events submitted by a particular User ID?

Sorry for being difficult! 🙂

Thanks Hunter – the CSS worked perfectly. Thanks for your patience and help!

Hi Hunter,

You’re onto something! When I change the site to use local timezones for each event, this fixes the calendar. But as most of our members will be posting events in the same cities, we wanted to make it as easy as possible for them to use – picking a timezone seems odd when they don’t even have to pick a state and a lot of the members are older so we want to keep it simple. Is there a workaround for this? We could use the local timezones setting, but hide the timezone field on the “Add Event” form maybe? (It seems to pre-fill correctly so we could just hide it with CSS?)

Thanks for your help – definitely close to a solution, I think!

Hi Hunter,

Thanks for your reply! I’m using the “Use the sitewide timezone everywhere” setting as the vast majority of the events will be in the same area. The site is using UTC + 10 for its timezone.

Hope you enjoyed the rest of your weekend!

Hi Hunter,

Thanks for your help! I made sure my user roles have the right permissions but it’s still not showing in the Calendar. If you check out the events page in List mode now you’ll see two new events at the bottom (one in October, one in December), neither of which are popping up in Calendar mode.

It doesn’t seem like it would be a permissions thing because the List and Day modes both work perfectly. Very odd!

I did try this with everything turned back to default, yes, but I’m happy to try again if it would help?

Thanks for your help,
Ally
