Private events not showing on admin calendar
I am testing my calendar to have others be able to add events - private - then I would be approving them to be made public. When I add an event (as a user), I get the email to approve the event, I can see it on my admin calendar and am able to make it public.

However, when I have another user test it, his event does not show as a submitted event. I get the email saying an event has been added, but when I go to the admin side of the calendar, it does not show. When I click on the link in the email to get to the list of submitted events, nothing is listed there either. And when I click on the link he received after posting (the one that says "save this link to be able to access your event in future"), I get the "oops this event link is invalid" error message.

What is going wrong that I can't see events that other users are trying to post?

Re: Private events not showing on admin calendar
My guess (and we are still looking into this) is that perhaps he posted a very long description into the Event Editor (or, even a short one from MS Word) which caused the event to die in the actual save process.

Have your friend just type in Test/Test and see if it goes through (it would at least help us track down the issue)

Re: Private events not showing on admin calendar
That seems to have fixed the problem. He was copying & pasting a very long description from a website into the description box; once changed to just a few lines, it showed with no problem.

thanks for your help.

Re: Private events not showing on admin calendar
Glad to hear that was it. However, we need to do a better job alerting people about this since it isn't clear why the event isn't saved (and the person doesn't even get a chance to fix it)

Definitely on our high-priority list...
