Hi
I think I may need to purchase your specific category module but I am unsure.

I have a site divided into several areas, each with several sub-centres.

Managers for centres can post events into their particular category and all those categories are displayed on the area calendar.

When a centre manager posts a new event they see all the calendars on the add event form.

Is there any way I can restrict this so they can only post onto one calendar?

Many thanks

Have you tried restricting by Joomla! Access Level?

I want all registered users to VIEW the calendar but only certain people to ADD to the calendar.

The problem is calendars are thought just as events containers and not as a way of categorizing events (or restricting access to them). Our Calendar/Category restriction modules are only to restrict events access to people who is not allowed to create events in those categories/calendars.

The only way I can think of doing this is using the User Authorised Mode in JEvents, which allows you really fine grain permission setting per user. This obligues you to set permissions user by user or to use the Auto Create Authorised user plugin to set them automatically on user creation:
