Issues with the "organiser" metabox

[stephenharris]

Some users (all except admin / original author?) view an event (with all the appropriate levels) - the "organiser" metabox does not appear. This is because incorrect arguments are used in the add_meta_box() function. Consequently although WordPress thinks the metabox is added (see Screen Options), it is not.

On a related note permission checks should be used to ensure its own visible to users with the appropriate permissions.

The fix is to replace (line 26 event-organiser/event-organiser-edit.php )

 function _eventorganiser_author_meta_box_title() {
      remove_meta_box( 'authordiv', 'event', 'core' );
      add_meta_box( 'authordiv',  __( 'Organiser', 'eventorganiser' ), 'post_author_meta_box', 'event', 'core', 'high' );
 }

with

 function _eventorganiser_author_meta_box_title() {
      $post_type_object = get_post_type_object( 'event' );
      if ( post_type_supports('event', 'author') ) {
           if ( is_super_admin() || current_user_can( $post_type_object->cap->edit_others_posts ) ){
                remove_meta_box( 'authordiv', 'event', 'core' );
                add_meta_box( 'authordiv',  __( 'Organiser', 'eventorganiser' ), 'post_author_meta_box', 'event', 'normal', 'core' );
           }
      }   
 }

This fix will be included in the next update.
