# [Plugin: Events Manager] BuddyPress requirements?

 * I’ve trying to find an FAQ or someplace that details this, but I can’t seem to
   find it: what are the requirements for using BuddyPress and Events Manager? Do
   certain parts of BP need to be turned on? We’re using BP with only the extended
   profiles turned on and I thought there was supposed to be a tab or something 
   on the Edit Profile page for a BP user’s events…did I miss something? There’s
   just nothing. How do BP users submit events? I’ve tried using the event_form 
   shortcode on a page, but it only works while I’m logged in as Admin. Other BP
   users get the “unauthorized access” message, but they have the capability of 
   edit events, but not editing other’s events (which wouldn’t make any sense…).
   Suggestions, details, help?

 * With BP installed, you should automatically see an events tab and also an events
   submenu item in your admin bar. do you not see these?
 * If you don’t try running just WP + BP + EM in case it’s another plugin breaking
   this (also worth trying with the default bp theme if this doesn’t work either).
