Looking for a little help with an error using the new Event webpart.

I am on the newest version of Sharepoint that is still rolling out to users. I'm not using a communications site. I'm still on a Team Site but using all the new features. One of the new features...

SharePoint Online

Thanks for reporting your issue Chelsea Porter. To add an event you must have editor permissions on the event list, which we check for to show you that button. It sounds like the user has those permissions, but may be encountering some other error.

Under the "unexpected error" text there should be a technical details tab with more information, could you either post that here or send it to me?

Thanks,

John

Hi,

I have this same issue with events in an Office 365 Group modern site.

I can add events, but if one of the members (who have Edit rights) clicks on an event, it brings up that same "Unexpected Error" message.

The only additional info is "PageLayoutID - Event"

Thanks,

Matt

Hey Matthew!

I THINK my problem (and possibly your problem as well) is that the members with edit rights don't have the full release of SharePoint yet. If you can verify that on your end it will help. I'm still waiting for the full release to come to my organization so I can test it better with multiple accounts but I THINK this is my problem. Just something to check :) Let me know if this helps at all!
