Hi, Daniel
first of all, you should not edit the XWiki.CalendarSheet to use
$xwiki.getDocument("XWiki.CalendarSheet") as the document: this way you
will add all new events in the CalendarSheet document and print the
events in this document as well: this is a little strange since a
Sheet's purpose is to print other documents and not hold objects and
data. Anyway, this is only a convention and is your decision to follow
it or not.
I tried the very code you sent me with an admin user and a normal user
to whom I only gave edit rights for the XWiki space (though this is NOT
ok, it is necessary for one to add events in XWiki.CalendarSheet). I
couldn't manage to reproduce the behaviour you're talking about but it
seems that is caused by the document's author rights:
- when a user edits the page (adds an event), it becomes the author of
the document and then,
- when the document is displayed (the velocity code is interpreted) the
author's rights are checked
which means that when your 'normal user' gets set as the document
author, he misses some rights; when the admin edits the page (though
making no change at all) he gets set as the author and, /voila!/,
everything gets displayed properly.
This might be happening if the velocity code calls a function that
requires programming rights. I had a look at the code you sent me and
didn't find one, though. (as I mentioned, it didn't reproduce on my side).
Hope this helps,
Anca
