Add Events with pre-approval
I just installed this calendar and chose to have events pre-approved before posting..

testing this feature proved to be interesting indeed..

one event notified me that the event was added with no approval by me... and didn't appear anyway...

in addition top the above, at one point the calendar will display a day/week/month option but then it disappears...

This calendar is far from stable or reliable in my opinion.. some glad I tried the 30 days first...
_______________________________________________________
Eventually the events appeared, on their own, with no approval...

as for the day/week/month options... they a haven't re-appeared...

Re: Add Events with pre-approval
I'm not sure how to respond to the "far from stable" comment since we've been around for more than 10 years and yours is the first email I've seen with this problem.

Regarding the day/week/month options; I'm not sure what calendar view or function you are talking about so I cant address this item.

Were you at any point still signed into localendar when you were entering the 2 test events that received "automatic approval" and perhaps signed out when you entered the one that was not auto-approved?

Re: Add Events with pre-approval
One of the things I think we need to do is confirm that the event is actually saved correctly before sending that notification. In some cases, it's conceivable that a visitor would post a huge description (from something like Word) that would break the save (and perhaps the email is incorrectly sent?)

We can also probably send a link in the email rather than just the event details. If you were already signed into a *different* localendar calendar, this link might not work correctly though (or we'd have to auto-sign you out and ask you to sign in again)
