That has now worked and editors can add and delete events.

Thanks for your help Drew.

Is that file just adding privileges for Access Events and Manage Categories - as they are already listed in the Roles for an Editor. However, ticking them does not add the 'add event ' button for an Editor.

Ok, so add to the top of any page on the live website?

I have tried this in a test environment in Development mode

define('PERCH_LOGINPATH', '/perch');

define('PERCH_PATH', str_replace(DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'config', '', __DIR__));

define('PERCH_CORE', PERCH_PATH.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'core');

define('PERCH_RESFILEPATH', PERCH_PATH . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'resources');

define('PERCH_RESPATH', PERCH_LOGINPATH . '/resources');

define('PERCH_HTML5', true);

define('PERCH_PRIV_ASSIST', true);

define('PERCH_PRODUCTION_MODE', 'PERCH_DEVELOPMENT');

There is no change in the privileges displayed - see screenshot attached.

Please let me know what needs to be done to add it manually, thanks

I haven't done that before, so need some guidance - are these the steps I should follow:

- set up test environment - mirroring the live files / database

- Set

- add ('PERCH_PRIV_ASSIST', true); to the bottom of my config/config.php file

- login in as Editor

- Go to the Add/Edit events page (where 'Add Event' is missing)

Login as Admin

- Go to Roles -> Editor and the Add Event privilege should appear?

Thanks

Production mode. I did try it on a stage development, everything had seemed OK - but I did not notice the missing button.
I had to switch to Perch 3 to be compatible with PHP 7.2 so now am stuck and my client is waiting to use the system again, I obviously do not want to give them full Admin access and cannot see any extra Event privileges I can grant for the role - for both Admin and Editor it only shows
Access Events
Manage Categories

Access Events is ticked for both roles.

I have logged in as an Editor and visited the Events -> Listing Events add /edit page and the 'Add Event' button is still not appearing.
Is there anything else I should do?

This appears to be an old issue see thread http://forum.grabaperch.com/fo…n-event-perch-3events-195

it is also referenced in new thread Perch Shop Permissions

I have added define('PERCH_PRIV_ASSIST', true); to my config/config.php file and that has made no difference to what they can do or to the list of privileges I can choose from in the Manage Roles section.

This did work prior to the Perch 3 update, whilst I appreciate that Events is not being developed a fix is needed.

I have just upgraded to Perch 3 and installed perch events version 1.9.5.
Whilst logged in with Admin role the 'Add Event' button appears top right of the Listing Events page but when logged in as an Editor that button does not appear.
I have looked at the Editor role but can't see anything that would prevent the button.
The Editor is still able to amend an existing Event.
Any ideas what is going on?
