In web user interface I can't find creator of the event

Open javesin opened this issue 8 years ago • 8 comments

In the web client (oC) doesn't show creator info. When I add ownCloud calendar into Thunderbird+Lightning I'm able to see all details including creator.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Log into ownCloud calendar (web client)
  2. create event (my own or other shared calendar)
  3. go to event details

Expected behaviour

Not only settings but also creator should be displayed

Actual behaviour

No info about creator

Server configuration

ownCloud version: (see ownCloud admin page) ownCloud 9.0.0 (stable)

Client configuration

firefox: latest stable (45.0) xubuntu/ubuntu: latest stable (LTS 14.04)

When I add ownCloud calendar into Thunderbird+Lightning I'm able to see all details including creator.

Really? All the time or only if the events contains attendees?

You are right - in Thunderbird+Lightning I don't see creator when no attendee defined. But I think I should be able to know who's the creator of event in shared calendar also in case no attendee added.

Hm, Do you want that also for events sharees create in clients other than this calendar app?

Then we should create a ticket in another repo

In my opinion it makes sense to store/see creator and don't differentiate which client-app creates the event. So if you approve it then please create appropriate new ticket or let me know I'll do it.

I'll propose it in core and we'll put this ticket on hold till then.

I've been solicited by users to find a solution as it is very important that some events show their creator, for organization, accounting, etc. Is this property even stored in the database? I coulnd't find a way to trace back an event to its creator looking at the tables, but I may be wrong as owncloud may store its data in a way that is not immediately recognizable. Is it possible to retreive it with a hack in the code?
