I am a new user on attackpoint and wanted to edit an existing event details but cannot see the link "edit event" which I am told should be on the event page next to the "added by" line.
I am definitely logged in and can post comments on the event.
Is there something else I need to do in order to edit events?
Thanks Steph
I think it might depend on who you are. Logged in under my own account, I get that link, but if I log in to the accounts of a couple of friends whose passwords I know, I don't get the link. Not sure what the distinction is -- some features are available only to people who make donations, but I don't think that applies in this case, because I think one of those friends has donated. I believe there's also a category of "privileged" people who are allowed to do things like upload epunch results lists, and that may be the distinction in this case.
I'm pretty sure that only the person who created the event can edit it.
@CC Not necessarily. Ken 'adds' a lot of events that I can edit
I edit events all the time, including the one Steph is referring to. Only the person who created it can delete it though.
I can also upload results although never specifically requested the ability. I am a long term donator.
Nice work tRicky, I 'cant' edit that event
Your account needs to have existed for a certain amount of time (a few months - year?) so there is enough credibility that you are a real person and not just messing around editing details. Then you need to have your location nearby the event that is being edited (this can be flagged private in your profile settings) so you can't edit any event around the world *some people might be given flags with less restrictions. If you do need to edit events you are in charge of but don't have access you could ask Ken to give your account the permissions to do so.
Delyn has it right. Steph, I have made you the owner of that event, so you should be all set for now.
Great! Thanks a lot for all of the input!
Weird, I'm not near North America at all!
Inexplicably, this would seem to indicate that Ken thinks you can be trusted with computers. Maybe I need to tell him some stories.
