Is it possible to block deletion of an event by the user? And enabling status "pending" - when adding a new event or changed existing event.
It is necessary that only the administrator can delete events, and the user only changes the display status on the site.

Thanks for the help

Is it possible to block deletion of an event by the user?

1. Install Members plugin by Justin Tadlock
2. Go to Users => Role from your WordPress admin panel
3. Edit the role you give your users when they signup for an account in your website.
4. Search for the capabilitiy "delete_published_aec_events" and uncheck the “Grant” check-box
5. Save the changes and try now.

And enabling status "pending" - when adding a new event or changed existing event.

You will have to play with the code to get this done. Check "save_event_s" function in /wp-content/plugins/another-events-calendar/public/class-aec-public-user.php file

Hi,

I've got the problem the other way. I've got Authors and would like to give them access to delete their events. I've got "members" and gave the access there but it doesn't work. Only Admins and Editors can delete their posts. Any solution?

Thanks in advance!

@Patrick,

Just follow the same steps provided in my previous reply under the heading "Is it possible to block deletion of an event by the user?". But, instead of unchecking "delete_published_aec_events" capability, you must enable it for the "Authors" and "members".

As I said, I did so but it isn't working - if I click on delete it send me back to "home"

@Patrick,
