      Hello,

      I just installed this plugin to use for planning group meals for my community group, but when I go to access the settings I get a page stating that I do not have permission to view that page. This is using my administrator account. I can view the settings for all other plugins, so I’m not sure what to be looking for here. Help?

      Thanks!

      Are you on a multi-site install? I have only had one other report in the past of something similar on a multi-site install where the SuperAdmin user couldn’t access the settings for some weird reason. I added some code after that to take that into account Super Admins and to add the appropriate capability to all super admins, that should have fixed it, but multi-site admin capabilities seems to be strange, and doesn’t always work as expected for each site in a multi-site (there is a place somewhere in the user settings where you can set a user’s roles for each site separately).

      Try creating another admin account that is regular admin (not Super Admin) or even just using the role my plugin creates (Sign-Up Sheet Manager), and see if you can access the settings then.

      Nope, just a simple wordpress blog running on my server at home. Actually though I just fixed it by deactivating the plugin and re-activating it. Not sure what was going on, but that fixed it. Should have tried it before posting here. Thanks for your quick response though!

      The capabilities & roles my plugin needs are created at activation, so perhaps something interrupted or failed to call the activation function when the plugin was installed. Happens sometimes. Glad you got it working.

      I do have another question… is there a way to hide the start time/end time columns in the sign-up sheets and not require the email for people signing up?

      Email is required to send confirmation and reminders, so there is currently no option to make that not required.

      There also is no option to hide those start/end time columns, although you can use the Customizer extension to change or hide the table header text (columns will still be there, though).

      Feel free to submit any ideas to the Feature Requests section. Or, if any of these are something you absolutely need right away, I can always be hired for custom programming work. As these free plugins don’t generate any revenue (not even support donations), adding new features is extremely low on my priority list. Paid work always gets priority.
