Do you have it installed by chance?

Very relieved to hear that 2.0 fixes the settings issue and artist names - can't wait for it to be released!! Regarding Internet Explorer - clicking on 'Add Show' or any of the GigPress admin links from the user admin panel displays a blank page with the words : Please switch to Firefox / Safari. I tested using IE8 after receiving complaints from some of the members :-( The front end calendar display works fine for all browsers and btw - the GigPress admin section works with no problems in Opera too :-) Hi Derek,

(In 1.4.x, although all users can load the screen, only admins can actually make changes.) No plans to introduce more complex permissions into GigPress though. Re: Internet Explorer - what exactly is not working in IE? GigPress has been tested in IE 6-8 and should work just fine. With the addition of multiple artists in GigPress 2.0, artist names will not be put in the notes area - they get their own column alongside Date, City, and Venue, so no need to worry about it getting lost.

The GigPress user role is set to contributor as I want members to be able to add / edit their own gig listings and related posts - unfortunately this setting displays ALL the GigPress functions including settings which could then be exploited or changed. Is it possible to set what is viewed by users depending on their role i.e., contributors / authors only see 'add / edit / delete' their own shows please? Also - I know that many backend admin functions are not accessible to users with Internet Explorer browsers but this is inconsistent with the majority of other standard features which can be accessed regardless of browser used like add / edit / post page - would it be possible to include IE functionality for the add/edit section of GigPress please? Finally - am really excited about the forthcoming release as one of the things I was going to ask about was the venues and multiple artists. Specifically being able to highlight the artist/band name which gets lost in the description area - yes I realise that html can be used as a work around - but most users don't have that knowledge and frankly would prefer that html couldn't be used as this prevents potential abuse - perhaps the inclusion of a 'band/act' name field that appeared above the description area automatically displays as bold would do the trick?

It won't look the same as the main shows listing - that you can't currently change. Bit it will show all info for the related shows in unordered lists. @Dario – you can do this now by enabling the setting to display related show info in related posts.

Just select "Add new post" from the "Related post" drop-down when adding a new show. You can also have this option selected automatically by checking off the "automatically create a new post" option in the Settings. <i>@David</i> - not currently, but you'll be able to add additional info to the widget in the upcoming version. @Jeremy – this is in fact already part of the plug-in.
