Define the essential information about your event, who, what, when, and where! Set location, dates, and more.
Event details are first generated when you add a new event from the Tripleseat gateway. It is through the event details that you control basic key information about your event. When you open an event it is by default the first page that you will see.
Key event details
In the top section of the Event Details screen there are fields where you enter the most basic event information - including event name, description, and website language.
Name
Enter the event name in the "Name" field. This will be the name of the event displayed in the platform, in search engines, and when using the Attendease Event Name placeholder. The name should be as short and descriptive as possible, while keeping the chosen subdomain name in mind.
Description
Similarly as with the event name, the "Description" field is used by search engines and for some Attendease Placeholders - e.g. when pulling in an description for calendar files. We suggest a concise description that summarizes what your event is about.
Event URL
Make sure to consider your URL carefully, as once your event website is published the URL will be locked. In other words, you are only able to edit the event URL prior to publishing the event.
You will receive a warning if the URL you have entered is used by another event. If you own the event site with the same URL you can archive the old event to free up that event URL and use it for the new event.
Your event URL is a subdomain of the attendease.com domain. If you would like a custom domain please, contact us. Domains can be given to organizations or business units, meaning that each event is a child of a master custom domain.
Note: Once the event has been published it is not possible to edit the event URL from the Event Details screen. Although strongly discouraged - it is possible to change the event URL should you need to.
Determine Event Visibility
Sometimes you may have an event that you don't want to share on your Organization's Event Portal Website. Select the checkbox to prevent the event from being listed on your Event Portal Calendar, Event List, and from the API.
Language
By default only English is available. If your organization or business unit has enabled more languages you are able to choose between languages in the "Language" drop-down field. Contact us for more information.
Optional: Portal Website
If your organization has a portal, options will appear under the Portal Website heading.
"Hide Event From All Listings Including Your Organization's Portal Calendar" will do as it indicates and hide the event from the portal calendar.
"Display Session Time Slots on Portal Instead of Event Dates" this will display all of the session times on the portal instead of just the event.
The thumbnail field can be used to add an image that will be visible on the portal.
Archive this Event?
You can archive the event by clicking this button and then confirming on the next popup.
Archived events are not deleted but hidden from the dashboard event list and removed from online visibility.
