Need to allow editing event status only for owner was created by Szilard Gajer

Hi,

First of all, Events Booking is a very useful component

But I have a problem:
I made a group to handle event booking events for specially registered users, who can add and edit events. This gorup members can change the status of the events (published/unpublished) as well, but my problem is that all of these users can edit the status of all of events.
How can I make that only events owner can modify this status?
Edit Own option is allowed but it does not allow to change status of events.

HELP!

So basically, you only want that only user who create the event can change status (publish / unpublish) that event? Other users won't be allowed to do that?

Please let me know so that I can assist you further

Regards,

Tuan

Hi

This will require small modifications to the code. Please follow the instructions below to get it work:

1. Open the file components/com_eventbooking/helper/helper.php

2. Find the method canChangeEventStatus

3. Change the code of that whole method to:

Code:

public static function canChangeEventStatus($eventId)
	{
		$user = JFactory::getUser();

		$db     = JFactory::getDbo();
		$query  = $db->getQuery(true);
		$query->select('created_by')
				->from('#__eb_events')
				->where('id = ' . (int) $eventId);
		$db->setQuery($query);
		$createdBy = (int) $db->loadResult();

		return $createdBy > 0 && $createdBy == $user->id;
	}

After that, it should work as expected

Regards,

Tuan
