Events

You will require this information if you are looking to create an event, or edit one.

Step-by-step guide for managing the events section landing page.

1. Navigate to the events section landing page (ensure that you are logged in, and have the relevant permissions to be able to edit the section).
2. Click the 'Edit' button at the top of the page, and once you are taken to the edit form, navigate to the 'View' tab.
3. On the 'View' tab, you will see five fields:
   1. 'Events path'
      1. Select the path that the events section is looking in. By default events are taken from the current section only. Enter '/' for site-wide searching.
   2. 'Select visible event categories'
      1. This selection box field allows you to define which events are listed on the landing page, by the category that they are tagged by. If all of the categories are in the left box, all of the events tagged by any category will be shown. If you would like to restrict the events showing by category, then highlight and move, using the arrows, only the categories that you would like to see, to the right box.
   3. 'Select visible event types'
      1. This selection box field allows you to define which events are listed on the landing page, by the type that they are tagged by. If all of the types are in the left box, all of the events tagged by any type will be shown. If you would like to restrict the events showing by type, then highlight and move, using the arrows, only the types that you would like to see, to the right box.
         
   4. 'Select visible listing filters'
      1. This field allows you to define which of the filters you would like to display on the page, for your users to be able to filter the events in the section by. If all of the filters are showing in the left box, all of the filter options will be displayed to a user. If you would like to select a specific set of filters to show your users, then use the arrows to highlight and move the filters that you want to show, into the right box.
   5. 'Always show listing filters if available'
      1. This is a checkbox field. The default for the events listing page, is to have the filters hidden, and provide the user with a button to show or hide the filters. If you would like to change this logic, so that the filters always show at the top of the events page by default, then check this box.
4. Click the save button, if you have made any changes.
