Hi Vladimir,

Here’s the response from TEC support so far:

“On our end, we did make a lot of big changes to how we structure how the database handles certain events, especially recurring events – you can read more here:

Migrating to the New Event Data System

Again though, these database changes shouldn’t affect user roles like how you’re describing.”

Hi Vladimir – we may have made some progress in identifying the issue:

The following scenarios are with a GeneratePress Pro child theme enabled.

When the Author user role has its Post Edit access set to Prohibit and specific post IDs are included, the event calendar series update fails.

When the Author user role has its Post Edit access set to Allow and no specific post IDs are included, the calendar series update succeeds.

When the Author user role has its Post Edit access set to Prohibit, specific post IDs are included, and the ure_manage_options capability is enabled, then the event calendar series update succeeds.

So what we’re trying to get to work is:

The Author user role has its Post Edit access set to Prohibit and specific post IDs are included and the ure_manage_options capability is not enabled for the Author role.

Hi Vladimir – Just sent you an email with a password reset link for admin access to our site. Also, in case this helps:

Scenario 1
Turn off the “Activate Block Editor for Events” in The Event Calendar settings and toggled off the ure_manage_options with the Twenty Twenty-One theme enabled, the update fails with a 502 bad gateway message.

Scenario 2
Turn off the “Activate Block Editor for Events” in The Event Calendar settings and toggled on the ure_manage_options with the Twenty Twenty-One theme enabled, the update succeeds.

Scenario 3
Turn off the “Activate Block Editor for Events” in The Event Calendar settings and toggled off the ure_manage_options with the Twenty Twenty-Three theme enabled, the update succeeds.

Scenario 4
Turn off the “Activate Block Editor for Events” in The Event Calendar settings and toggled off the ure_manage_options with the Twenty Twenty-Three theme enabled, the update succeeds.

Scenario 5
Turn on the “Activate Block Editor for Events” in The Event Calendar settings and toggled off the ure_manage_options with the Twenty Twenty-Three theme enabled, the update succeeds.

Scenario 6
Turn on the “Activate Block Editor for Events” in The Event Calendar settings and toggled off the ure_manage_options with the GeneratePress vanilla theme enabled, the update fails.

Scenario 7
Turn off the “Activate Block Editor for Events” in The Event Calendar settings and toggled off the ure_manage_options with the GeneratePress vanilla theme enabled, the update fails with 502 bad gateway.

Scenario 8
Turn off the “Activate Block Editor for Events” in The Event Calendar settings and toggled on the ure_manage_options with the GeneratePress vanilla theme enabled, the update succeeds.

Scenario 9
Turn on the “Activate Block Editor for Events” in The Event Calendar settings and toggled on the ure_manage_options with the GeneratePress vanilla theme enabled, the update succeeds.

The 502 error doesn’t seem to leave an entry in our site logs that we can find.
When the update fails without a 502 error, the following error is displayed on the event edit screen “Updating failed. The response is not a valid JSON response.”

We can basically get all configurations to work when ure_manage_options is enabled for the Author role. We’re unsure exactly what it does.

Thanks

We ran into this issue recently. We use the Menu Editor Pro plugin (Version 2.16.1). When we look into this issue, access to the URE menu item was deselected in the Admin and “current user” profiles. Once we selected them to be displayed/allow access in Menu Editor Pro, the access warning went away and we could get to the settings page for URE.

This was included in the latest release and it’s fantastic! Thanks again!

Thanks for the quick response Vladimir!

Circling back around on this. You should be able to access this link: [removed]

Our other site likely has geofencing active on it and was blocking you’re access.

Please let me know once you’ve successfully downloaded the plugin.

Thanks!

Sorry – you’re likely being blocked because of your origin. I’ll work on getting a download link that’s available globally.

Here’s the link to the latest version as of 30/1/2020:

Please let me know once you’ve downloaded it.

It would be great to see this as well. The JoomUnited permissions strategy appears to focus on limiting users to their own upload folder. What really is needed is the ability to restrict by category ID like pages and posts. Having the permissions cascade to child subcategories would be an important feature as well.
