I am fine with them changing the description and title etc but would like to prevent them from editing the date and time as a lot of the events will be using the communal village hall so times can only be changed after checking with the bookings secretary, who is an admin and will log in and change the event details for them.<\/p>\n<p>I did think about removing the inputs from the form, or just changing the visibility to none for the ones I don&#8217;t want to show but the event creation and edit form seem shared so was unsure how to do this.<\/p>\n<p>Another solution could be to change the event to a draft again after the user edits someone, again I&#8217;m unsure how to do that.<\/p>\n<p>Any help would be much appreciated.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks<\/p>\n<p>James<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1061522","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Limit fields to edit once published, community -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/limit-fields-to-edit-once-published-community\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Limit fields to edit once published, community -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Hi, I am making a website for our village and are using your pro and community plugins.
