Thank you, Vapvarun. It works. Appreciate the help.

I have no idea why, but it works now.

I came up with a workaround. I changed the message about the Group attachment selection using the Loco Translate plugin.

Admin of a group message:
Select a group you admin to attach this event to it. Note: Event attached to a group will only be visible to members of that group. Leave it as “Not a Group Event” if you want the event to be visible to everyone.

Not an admin of a group:
If you are an admin of a group, you will have the option to attach an event to that group. The event will only be visible to members of that group.

Angelo, your logic does make sense. However, there is room for improvement. If it’s a Public Group, I think the event should be displayed for everyone.

Or even better to give an option for Group admin to decide whether they want to display the event for everyone or just group members. The reason is that all groups on my site have public events and they would like to get as many attendants as possible.

Let me know what you think.

No rules, I installed it as is, and did not touch any settings.

If you would like to test, I can provide you with the admin login. Let me know.

Further testing reviews that when an event is linked or tied to a Group, it does not show up for non-logged in users nor logged in users who do not belong to the Group.

Please let me know if this bug has been confirmed on your end and when is the timeline to get it resolved.

Best Regards,
Bruce

I just tested your plugin on a separate new WP installed and the event does show up for non logged in users.

If I delete and install your plugin, will my event data get lost?

I’m sorry. My site is live and I have over 20 plugins to deactivate them. Thank you tho. I’ll try something else and see.

Hi, did you able to confirm the issue? Let me know if you need anything.

To sum it up, I was able to confirm that if the Event is linked to a private or public Group, only members of that Group get to see the event when logged in. If the event is not linked to any Group, only logged in users get to see the event. All of these were tested using just BuddyPress and Event Manager plugin with WordPress 2016 theme.

Confirmed. After becoming a member of that group, I was able to see the event tied to that group, but only if I’m logged in.

I turned off every plugin except for BuddyPress and Events Manager and the logged out users still can’t see the event. I changed back to WordPress default 2016 theme with same result. Logged in users can’t see event either now. Only the admin gets to see the event when logged in.

I deactivated BuddyPress while using WP 2016 theme and logged in users can see the event, but not logged out users.

Do you think it might have to do with the fact that the event is tied to a private group?

Thank you for keeping up with this. It says “no events found.” https://www.bonsaiunited.com/events/

Hi, I’ve enabled it but logged out users still can’t see the event. I don’t plan using the Booking featured. I will be turning it off. Will that affect anything?

Now that I think about it, it would be better on the next line. Thanks, Guido.
