Can a pending event be edited by the user who created the event?  It doesn't seem like it (but I've made changes to the .pl scripts, so I'm not sure).

If not, anyone know what hack would be needed to allow this?

They probably could but they're not displayed anywhere for them to access except on the approval template.

You'd probably have to modify the sub getEvents { routine in the Event.inc file.

Dan, many thanks again!

I commented out the following line in Event.inc in method getEvents() and now pending events show up when a user goes to the "Edit events" admin page, allowing the user to edit approved and pending events:

# next unless ($event_details->{$s->{'event_id'}}->{'approved'});

Note: this change probably won't work for most people -- as pending events will probably then show up on the calendar!
I've made previous modifications to calendar.pl and default.html (based on other useful posts) such that the administrator will see pending events on the calendar (in a different color) -- and users who can't approve events won't see them.

Glad to hear it.

**  -- as pending events will probably then show up on the calendar! **

That is unlikely to happen just because of that change as the calendar grids use a different sub getEvents { routine which is located in the calendar.pl file rather than in the Event.inc file where your modifications take place.

But I don't know if there might be any other consequences which might occur becase of the change.

JFYI
