Thread Topic	How do I set up a scheduling calendar for others?
Thread Body	I am trying to set up a scheduling calendar for volunteers who patrol two city parks where I live. They will simply enter their name, what time they plan to patrol and whether they need a partner (they must patrol in pairs). Then they will choose one of two Custom Categories (biking or walking), select the time and date, and add it to the calendar. I already have one Personal Premium package, and was planning to set up another one. But I am having two problems which perhaps someone can help me with. 1. The Police do not want this calendar to be accessible by the public, for obvious security reasons—they don’t want possible criminals to know when folks will or will not be patrolling. I see that I can set up Sharing, and allow access only by specific members, which seems like the correct approach. However, it seems like the only Permission I can give those members is ‘View Only’ which would not allow them to schedule. How do I allow them to do their own scheduling? 2. Because many of these folks will only schedule a few times, I think it is unrealistic to make them learn everything about Localendar. In addition to publishing a ‘cheat sheet’, I was thinking about setting up a ‘master’ event using the Table format, so all they would have to do would be fill in the blanks, choose the appropriate custom category, select the time and date, and then ‘Save as Copy’, and perhaps Preview. What I do NOT want is for them to be able to select Update or Delete, because them my ‘master’ would disappear. Is there code I can add somewhere that will prevent those two buttons from functioning? Thanks, Harry
