How to add an event

Click the hamburger icon (≡) to open the menu. The menu opens in a left-hand sidebar.

Select Settings to open up the Settings Menu.

From here select Manage Homepage.

This will open up a new screen, select Events on the left hand menu. This will display a list of any existing events already on the platform, showing their dates and status. To add a new event, select Add Events.

This will bring up a form where you can add a Title, Author, Summary, Start and End Dates and times and Location for the event.

The Body text box can contain extra details of your event. Within the Body text editor you can format text, add imagery and more.

You can also upload an accompanying article image in the Events Image uploader. To do so, click on the icon or drag an image into the box.

Once you’ve added information, there’s the option to save as a draft or publish, via the buttons at the bottom of the page.

If you save as draft, you will be taken back to the previous screen with the list of Events on the platform. The draft will be marked as such via the ‘Status’ column.

To edit the draft again, click on the three dots and select edit. This will open up the event again.

Once happy with the content, you can select Publish. The news article will then be available via the Events section of your platform.
