We’re getting the same error message that thinkero reported: “You do not have permission to manage others bookings.” However, we are not doing bookings, so this doesn’t make sense.

There seems to be a glitch where, when publishing another’s event, the plug-in looks for the manage_others_bookings permission even when Bookings/Registration is not enabled for that event. And then if the editing user does not have the manage_others_bookings permission for some reason the plug-in returns the event to Draft mode even if it was previously published.

We’d really appreciate a fix for this.

The events were edited by a different user who has a similar or higher role than the original user.

In the most recent instance, an event had already been published and was showing on the calendar (WP – Full Calendar). Someone noticed an error in the posting, so an editor (not the person who created the event) went in to fix it. When the editor clicked “Update” the event went back to draft mode and was no longer visible on the calendar. The “Publish” button was showing to the editor (after clicking “Update”, but clicking it had no effect.

Yes, the editors who are having trouble have both the capabilities of edit_others_events and publish_events (also edit_others_posts and publish_posts).

I’m having exactly the same problem as thinkero is. The event goes to draft mode when an editor edits an event submitted by another user. Then the editor cannot publish that event unless he changes the author to himself. The admin can still publish the event, and there are no problems with the editor’s own events. In the Event Capabilities section all the event boxes are checked for the editor. We’re on Event Manager 5.6.1 and WP 4.3.1.
