Allow ALL logged-in users to see private events

    We’re using WordPress with BuddyPress as a small community for our sports club. I would like to display some events to everyone (like open-house days) but other events only to logged-in members (members of our sports club). If using “Private” events, the sports-club members must be at leasts “Editors”, which is not what I want since they’re not supposed to edit anything.

    I tried to give the “Read private ai1ec events” right to “Subscribers” (With “User Role Editor” plugin) and also tried adding it directly to individual users, but that didn’t help.

    Is there any way I can make “Private” events available to all logged in users?

    Thank you!
    Toby

    Ok, answered my own question.. Use a plugin like “User Role Editor” and grant the right “read_private_ai1ec_events” to the groups you want to have access to private events.

    Then edit file app/model/search.php:

    From:

    protected function _get_post_status_sql() {
		global $current_user;

		$args = array();

		// Query the correct post status
		if (
			current_user_can( 'administrator' ) ||
			current_user_can( 'editor' )
		) {

    To:

    protected function _get_post_status_sql() {
		global $current_user;

		$args = array();

		// Query the correct post status
		if (
			current_user_can( 'administrator' ) ||
			current_user_can( 'editor' ) ||
			current_user_can( 'read_private_ai1ec_events' )
		) {

    Best,
