    Hello,

    I am using a SAEF to allow users to add/edit numerous items on the site. Currently with one of the five different weblogs the user can submit, when the form is submitted it adds the weblog into the system (with an open status) but will not display on the front end list of events after published. However when I go in through the backend, choose that entry and simply update the entry it will then appear in the list for the user on the front end.

    Here is the SAEF (note jquery is missing as it is already included in the header of the site):

    {exp:calendar:form weblog="calendar_events" return="members/account-event"}
    
    <input type="hidden" name="url_title" value="{url_title}" />
    <input type="hidden" name="status" value="open" />
    
    <!-- ============================ 
           Events
    ============================  -->
      
    <fieldset class="weblog_entry">
        <legend>Event</legend>
            <div class="row">
                <h2>Event Title</h2><p> <br />
                <input type="text" name="title" value="" class="input" /><br />
            </div> <!-- End .row --><br />
            <div class="row events_dates_options"><br />
                </p><h2>Dates & Options</h2><p> <br />
                {calendar_date_widget}<br />
            </div> <!-- End .row --><br />
            <div class="row"><br />
                </p><h2>Summary</h2>
    <p>            <input type="text" name="field_id_223" value="" class="input" /><br />
                <input type="hidden" name="field_ft_223" value="none" /><br />
                A brief description of the event.<br />
            </div> <!-- End .row --><br />
      </fieldset><br />
      <input type="image" src="{site_url}images/submitButton.gif" class="submit" /><br />
    {/exp:calendar:form}

    When submitted it returns to a listing page where the user can see the events they have:

    {exp:calendar:events}
        {if no_results}
            <div class="notice">
                It looks like you have not filled out any events yet.
            </div>
        {/if}
        <div class="menu_list_row">
            <a href="http://{permalink_path=members/account-event-edit}">{title}</a><span class="item_delete">{exp:delete_entry:link entryid="{entry_id}" entrytype="event" template="site/delete" showconfirm="true"}Delete Item{/exp:delete_entry:link}</span>
        </div>
    {/exp:calendar:events}

    Any thoughts on this?

    Kind Regards,

    Bret

    Does the entry have a date in the future, perhaps? Custom statuses would be another one to check but you said they were “Open”.

    So for example I created the entry today, and the Entry Date is 2010-06-14 08:36 A. Correct, the status is open. Any idea?

    Kind Regards,

    Which version and build of EE are you running? If you wait for a few hours does the entry eventually appear on the the front-end by itself?

    Hey Brandon,

    It has been 7 hours since I posted it and it has not shown on the from end. It is EE 1.6.8. Ideas?

    Kind Regards,

    Bret,

    This is a third party module you are using so you will have to use Solspace’s support forums first I’m afraid.

    One thing to check before you do is that your Weblogs have a Status Group set under their Group Preferences

    Thanks John,

    I do have a thread started (with no response) on the Solspace site. Not the greatest help. :(

    The Status Group is set to “Default Status Group”.

    Kind Regards,
    Bret

    Unfortunately this does seem like an issue with the Calendar module, so we won’t be able to offer much help here. Please keep us in the loop.
