Is there a way to restrict registration of an Event to an ACL? I ask because we have paid members that exist as a Contact Group, and at present we do various workaround at restricting signup for events through a Drupal frontend to the events.

I think you can create an ACL per event for restriction, but I was hoping to have a more generic ACL that I could apply to something like an event type. That way I could have a single ACL for the events I want to restrict rather than hundreds of ACL's for all of my events.

yes, from the UI you can only create an ACL per event

however, you can potentially do the "event type" ACL via a hook implementation. In general, i think ACL's for custom groups / profiles / events needs a few improvements. A few things that come to mind include:

a. Make it scale for larger number of events (it currently uses arrays and all the ids of the various objects instead of temp tables and sql queries)

b. Make it generic, so allow things like event type for events, extends for custom groups etc
