Using the Events feature in Tent allows your members to sign up for events within the community portal.

Some examples of how Tent customers can use the Events feature:

• Sharing monthly meet-ups to a community of volunteers
• Sharing induction events to a community of programme participants
• Sharing training events to a community of volunteers

Switching on the Events Feature

Like all features, you can toggle Events on and off as you require. When events are switched off, your members won’t see the events item in the sidebar menu. Admins will always see all features on the menu, but a banner at the top of the page will inform them if the feature they are viewing is currently switched off.

You can toggle Events on or off under Platform Setup as and when you require them.

Toggling Events off doesn’t stop you from creating events, it just makes the entire feature invisible to non-admins. If you want to create some events prior to launching the feature to your members - or if you just want to have a play around and a practice - then simply switch it off in Platform Setup and get creating.
