add new event and submit news - immposible and bug in Events

[fenix]

If im a registered user i cant submit new news... when i change user status to "author" there is no "add event" link in events...

Is there any possiblity to submit news and add events?

Also i have this error when im "registered" in "Events" and i click "add event"

"Fatal error: Call to undefined function: activateeditor() in /mos/components/com_events/events.html.php on line 863"

I have original , not modified files.

When i click on the evenst publish menu... all is ok i can save , etc.
but there is no WYSIWYG editor , any ideas?

Best Regards,

Hi fenix,

I had the same problem with the "author". For the other problem be sure that you use this download link for the events component http://mosforge.net/projects/events/


This is the solution:
Look for the following code in /components/com_events/events.php
if (( _CAL_CONF_ADMINLEVEL == 0) && ( strtolower($my->usertype) == "registered")) {

and replace it with this one
if (( _CAL_CONF_ADMINLEVEL == 0) && (( strtolower($my->usertype) == "registered") || (strtolower($my->usertype) == "author"))) {

best regards

This is a 3rd party component problem. Not a Mambo bug.

activateeditor() is causing this problem. The event-component version you use is using this feature which has been disabled in the current versions (from 1.0.3 and up) you need to download the latest and updated version from the component and modules of Event here:http://mosforge.net/projects/events/

If you install these versions all your problems as described have gone.

Note: this topic has been discussed and announced a thousand times on http://forum.mamboserver.com and here as well and is approximitely 3 month's old if not longer. Your post on forum.mamoserver.com was already answered as well, Pavda. All you should have done was a search on activateeditor () and you would have found this answer easy

Last but not least it is normal and polite if you show some gratitude and say thanks to the people who have been helping you?
