Adding Events

  1. Make sure you are logged into your website. 
  2. Navigate to the News & Events folder. Find and click the Site Toolbar -> Add new… (It's important to place events and news in one location so that it is easy to audit and clean out old events and news items)
  3. In the drop-down menu, select Event.
  4. Add the Title in the designated field.
  5. The Summary field is not required but recommended for item listings, searches, and ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliance.
  6. Choose the Date and Time the event begins and ends. Click in the Date field to open the calendar date picker, and then click the desired date.
    1. If it is an all-day event, click the box next to Whole Day.
    2. If the event does not have a designated end time (it is open-ended), click the box next to Open End.
  7. If the event happens regularly and you want to set it up as a recurring event, see "Setting Up Recurring Events".

  8. Fill out the fields for Location, Attendees, Contact Name, and any other desired details.
  9. In the Text field, add a description of the event.
  10. Click Save
