Users creating events in groups and auto approving all events submitted to the site

I am having issues where I have allowed users to create events in groups, or events in general on the website. However, every time an event is created, I have to approve each and every single event. In addition, nobody in a group can create an event from within that group. I thought I had everything figured out in the ACP, but even still, Users are unable to create events in a group, and I still have to approve all events submitted to the website. Is there some way to override this and allow users to create events from within a group and also to make it so that I do not have to approve every single event sent to the the site?
Hi Don,
make it so that I do not have to approve every single event sent to the the site?
You can try disabling this in the profile type ACL(http://take.ms/0BAvV).
allow users to create events from within a group
Can you try adding the Event Create custom field to the group category custom field so that you can configure which members are able to create a group event(http://take.ms/Xq3Wf)?

Hey Dan,
Yes I mentioned adding the custom field in the group category. Anyway nice work finding the location of those settings. I apologize if my explanation was not very specific.
Once you have configured those settings, try it out and let us know if your initial issue is resolved. Thanks.

No your explanation was spot on. I just didn't see it.

Thanks for resolving this issue for me.
