Limit user to changing a single page & add events through The Event Calendar

[leodruker]

I’m having a bit of a strange problem.

I have The Events Calendar plug-in installed.

I also have the role editor plug-in installed and am using it to create users who only have the ability to edit a specific page (using that page’s ID).

However, I’d like for them to also be able to add new events. When they do, as the event is published, it gives them an error that they don’t have permission to edit that item. I assume this is happening because as the event is being posted, it gets an ID that the user is not allowed to publish.

Is there a workaround for something like this?
Is there a way to restrict them to editing one page, but still allow them to post events?

This filter offer a workaround especially for similar cases:

ure_restrict_edit_post_type

Exclude you events custom post type from the edit restrictions using this filter.

That’s great! One quick question – where can I insert this code?

You can insert your version of a code into active theme’s functions.php file.
