From the
on-line documentation quote:
Approve Pending EventsIf a user (such as the anonymous user) has privileges to add an event, but not automatically approve their own events, then any events they add will be added to a 'pending' list. A user with the 'Approve Pending Events' privilege can then login to approve the events and make them active.
Each event is shown with its Title, Description, Author, ID, and Schedule. To the left is the options of 'No Action', 'Approve' or 'Reject'. Select the action for each event in the list and click 'Save' to save all of them. Anything approved or rejected will be removed from the list, and the others will remain in the pending list.
To edit an event before approving it, click the Edit button. This will take you to the Edit Event screen and also allow you to proceed to the Schedule Event screen. Once finished editing and saving the event, you will automatically be returned to the Approve Pending Events screen.
So the answer is... give users permissions to add events but
not to automatically approve their own events. If you don't want them to have to log in before adding an event, set those permissions for the "anonymous" user as that is what visitors are considered until logged in.
