DotNetNuke Events Module Editing

It can be frustrating searching for information on modifying and administering a DotNetNuke website. The DNN documentation isn't bad in some areas, but it can be dificult to find a simple solution if you are unfamiliar with the product and get confused by the terminology.

One of our clients had a contractor build them a DNN website (which I don't recommend). They had a simple request; create a user account that could edit events but didn't have administrative rights.

It was an incredibly simple request with a very simple solution. However, the search for answers was suprisingly difficult.

1. Create the new user account
2. Create a security role: Event Editor
3. Add the user to the Event Editor Role
4. Access the settings for your event module (lower right image link)
5. Under Advanced Settings, Select the Event Editor role in the Moderator Role drop-down list
