How do I create a new event?

To be able to begin creating an event, you must first enter the Event Index for your organization. You can do this by clicking the getregistered® logo at the top left of the page when you're administering an event at any time. Simply click on 'New Event' on the top right of the page and you will be taken to the 'Create New Event' page.

Here you can enter your basic event information, namely:

• Event Title - the name of your event. This will be displayed on all pages on both the admin site, event website and event registration form, as well as any communications sent from getregistered® to your Event Users and attendees.
• Event Slug - this field allows you to create a personalized URL slug for your event.
• Event Start/End - these fields represent the dates and times that your event will be running from and to.
• Registration Opens - this field allows you set a date and time that attendees can begin registering for your event.
• Registration Closes - this field allows you set a date and time that registration ends for your event. Once the date/time is reached, attendees will no longer be able to register for your event.

All fields presented are mandatory to create your new event - you can change this information at any time once you've completed this initial form.

Click on 'Save Changes' to proceed and your event has now been successfully created. You can now begin your event configuration - for more information on configuring your event settings, please refer to this article.
