I am new to this forum and was looking for a calendar to use for vehicle scheduling. What I need to do is change the event title to auto load the username of person logged in as the event title.

Title - "event"
to
Scheduled by: - "username" so that the user shows by the schedule time.

Does anyone have a suggestion as to how I do this?
I am using the default template, with one click add event and no overlap plugin's which work fine.
Thanks

Edit the default.html template file and change the <%= EVENT FIELD(title) %> tags to <%= EVENT FIELD(username) %>

DanO, Thanks for looking at my problem. However this change does provide what I was looking for. It removes the event title (username) from the calendar so only the times are shown.
Sorry if I have not explained the problem properly.
If I change the add/edit field for the title template Form Input Properties: Default Value text field to my "user name" I get the Scheduled By: "username" field filled in. So it looked to me like I need to find a change that will put the logged in username in the event.properties.txt file so the "title:defaultvalue=" will equal the logged in user.

You put me on the right track. If I Edit the default.html template file and change the <%= EVENT FIELD(title) %> tags to <%= EVENT FIELD(author_id) %> the calendar display is correct. Now I just need to fix the schedule_oneclick_non_recurring.html and the add_edit_event.html so the author_id or author_name is loaded in the event field.
Thanks
Roger
