Can't Delete or Modify any Events

Ever since the 4.0 calendar released no one in my stake has been able to edit or delete any events on the calendar even the event creators! Do we have an ETA on these bug fixes? As the stake building coordinator I'm being inundated with calendar requests and I'm stuck until I can clear out the recurring events that some eager beavers registered that they never should have since the stake hadn't announced the building rotation yet.

Is there a workaround while we wait for a fix? I'm seriously thinking of telling the stake to announce a Google calendar and ditch the Church calendar all together I'm so desperate.

That's the first report of that I've seen. Is there anything about your stake that would be different from the average stake? Identifying the corner case would help the developers figure out what's going on.

Our stake is massively overcrowded. There are 4 wards meeting in the same building, and we've been splitting wards a lot due to phenomenal growth. I'm not sure if that matters or not. We have 3 church buildings in our stake, and each building has its own calendar, and the stake center has its own calendar.

The problem is not just me, literally no one is able to edit or delete events once they have been created, including the event creator.

If it helps, our stake is the Saratoga Springs Utah Springside Stake

It looks like you share a building with a neighboring stake. That might be playing a role in the issue.

Yeah our stake is so overfull that one of our wards meets in a church that's in a different stake.

I could see that causing a problem for events at that location, but it would be odd if it affected other events. Especially locationless ones.

Anyway, "they" are looking at it.

Thank you. I really appreciate all of your efforts. The church calendar system is really a life saver for building coordinators!

I am the Building Coordinator in the Woodburn, Oregon building in the Keizer, Oregon Stake. I'm having the same problem, cannot edit or remove anything from the calendar. You are not alone!

With Christmas coming up people are asking for all sorts of scheduling needs and I can't help them to the best of my ability without the calendar working correctly.

One more helpful piece of information. It appears that I'm able to edit and delete existing events in 2022, but not 2023. Just this morning I was able to delete an existing future event in December 2022, but when I tried to delete a recurring event in 2023 nothing happens. The dialog that lets me remove the events just sits there doing nothing when I press remove.

skunkmonkey,

Please try again. I've been told that some fixes have been released in the last few days that may have fixed it. They did try your situation and it seemed to work. If you're still having issue, I'd suggest incognito mode just to be sure the cookies are not a issue.

I'm guessing they pushed a fix? I noticed today that I can once again edit and delete 2023 calendar events! Thanks devs!

I can delete a single instance of the recurring event; however, when I go to put the new event in its place, I get an error stating I have conflicts, and looking at them, it acts like it didn't actually delete the initial event.

Can you see the original event in the calendar section of the tools app (might need a refresh)? Also check the weekly view (rather than monthly) and see if there is something there.

I'm having the same issue in Jan 2024. I can't edit or delete the event in any way.

Is this an event on a calendar you can edit? Otherwise, it's likely you just don't have edit rights. Get with a clerk or member of the appropriate leadership and make sure you're set up properly.

Our situation is not all event just ones that are suggest they are connected to the Stake

A ward Editor created a few events that are now not editable by anyone - and they have mistakes

Is there an update on this issue ?

What calendar are these events on and who are the calendar editors?

Generally, wards can't change events scheduled by the stake since that would be on a stake calendar.

Can’t delete or modify events owned by the stake which were created by old schedulers. In fact nobody in the current stake leadership including stake clerk or myself as a stake scheduler and stake building rep can touch them.
They seem to be recurring daily and weekly events in the South Jordan Eastlake Stake.
Thank you!!

That sounds like a problem. Because this forum is basically a user-to-user discussion forum, nobody here has authorization to solve your specific situation. Someone might reply with suggestions, but if you need problems solved directly, you'll probably need to contact the Global Services Department.

What calendar are these events placed on?

The stake clerk has edit rights to stake event calendars, but not ward event calendars, or location (building) calendars. At least not by default.
A building scheduler has rights to edit events taking place in the building(s) they are set up for in the calendar system.

Stake building rep has no default edit rights. I don't think stake scheduler is a standard position, so it wouldn't have rights by default either.

Note that I don't think adding or editing events is available in anyplace but the calendar webpage.
