How can i solve this problem...

I have several open groups that are only visible to registered users. The ES group menu item is set to registered users only. I want the groups open so that any registered user can view the activities/posts.

On the public side of the website, i have the ES event module that displays any public events. Events that anyone can attend, registered or not.

When a visitor clicks on the "see all" events from the homepage they can see all events from every category and group.

I want the group to be able to post some events (maybe with private info) to only the registered users of the site.

How can i achieve this?
Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.

Do you mean you would like to allow user submit new private event in public group?

If yes, unfortunately that was not possible to achieve this, is because the current default privacy is belong to the group type for example :

Open Group - When the user submit new event in this group, everyone can access this event.
Closed Group - When the user submit new event in this group, only group member can access.
Invite Group - When the user submit new event in this group, only group member can access.

Is there some work around using ACL? Is there a way to assign event categories to registered users or different profile types?

Hey Garrett,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. Hm, there isn't any ACL that would meet your scenario currently and to be honest, it's a pretty complicated scenario because it is actually contradicting with the "group type"

Okay, so i went ahead and made the group closed but and created an event within the group if i enter the url to go directly to the event from any registered user, I'm denied access, which is correct.

But,

When i view ALL events i see the group event (that i am NOT a member of) and all the details. If i click on that event, i'm denied access but in the ALL view, i see all the details anyways.

Is there a way to adjust what is displayed in the ALL event page...such as: Event Title, Date, Description , Address.

What i would like is for non-members of a group to only see the Event Title and Event Date but nothing else.

Is this possible?

Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a public holidays for us here.

I think i didn't explained very well in my previous response.

Open Group - When the user submit new event in this group, everyone can access this event and they can able to see everything inside the event.

Closed Group - When the user submit new event in this group, they can't able to see those activities stream inside the event, but they can still able to see the event title, description, event start and end date from the event listing page.

Invite Group - When the user submit new event in this group, this event will not appear on the event listing page.

By the way, currently that was not possible to adjust those info privacy, perhaps you can download my attached file and replace into this following template override location and see how it goes?
