I'm looking to create a site where users can create an event, and also add themselves to existing events. I know I can create a new "Event" custom post type, and with CRED allow users to generate content, but is there functionality what would allow them to associate their accounts with an Event someone else has already create? Basically, it's for a small community site, where people are likely to be both creating events, and rsvp'ing to existing ones. I'm wondering it it's possible using Toolset, without a lot of extra php/mysql development.
Thanks!

Dear Bob,
I think it is possible within Toolset.
For example, you can create a new custom post type "my-event", setup it as child post type of "Event"
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/creating-post-type-relationships/
in the single "Event"post display a CRED link for user to create new "my-event" post, so the post author is the current user:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/cred-forms-for-child-content/
For each user, you can create a view to list "my-event" posts of current user:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/filtering-views-query-by-author/
For each "Event" post, you can display it's child "my-event" and the post authors:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/querying-and-displaying-child-posts/
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/views-shortcodes/#wpv-post-author
For your reference.
