 * I am making my events private so that they aren’t searchable. By doing this my
   subscribers can’t see them. How can I fix this?

 * Hey [@sherry](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sherry/),
 * You have a couple of ways of going about this:
 * 1) Use a custom search plugin to control what is returned instead of making the
   events private
 * 2) Read the following articles about handling roles and permissions: [https://theeventscalendar.com/?s=roles+and+permissions&submit=Search&post_type%5B%5D=documentation&post_type%5B%5D=tribe-knowledgebase](https://theeventscalendar.com/?s=roles+and+permissions&submit=Search&post_type%5B%5D=documentation&post_type%5B%5D=tribe-knowledgebase)
 * Let us know if that helps.
 * Have a great day!
 * Geoff B.
