CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I want to give certain users access to CiviEvent (and later other parts of CiviCRM) without them being able to acceess other parts of the Joomla back end.

basically, I've got some users that will need to create & manage events. I've got something set up so they can see the events and then manage the delegates from a front end link (joomla/component/civicrm/?task=civicrm/event/search&reset=1&force=1&status=1&event=1).

However, if i use the link joomla/administrator/?option=com_civicrm&task=civicrm/event/add&reset=1&action=add for them to add an event, it takes them straight into the back end where they normally wouldn't be able to log in to via the admin login

Is this possible?
