Content and moderation

Managing events

Approve, change, cancel or remove events, and choose who can create them.

You can see and manage every event in your community. Open Community in the admin menu and press Events.

Finding events

Use the tabs All, Draft, Pending review, Published, Cancelled and Archived. Use Search events... to find one by name.

What you can do

Open the actions for an event. The choices depend on its status and can include:

• Approve or Reject, for events waiting for review.
• Postpone or Cancel event.
• Mark complete or Archive, when it is over.
• Restore, to bring back an archived event.
• Delete Event, to remove it for good.

You can add a Reason to explain your decision. It is kept in the event's history and helps the organiser.

Choosing who can create events

Open Event Settings under Community. Choose Who can create Events, and switch on Require Event approval if events must be checked first. Add a Reason for change, then press Save Event settings.

Cancelling an event is kinder than deleting it. People who planned to come can see what happened.

This is done on the main website. The accessible site does not have this page.
