Create and schedule events

Add events to a calendar one at a time, as a repeating series, or from a spreadsheet. Once the calendar is published, new events show on the public page and in every subscribed phone calendar.

Steps

1. Go to Calendar and open a calendar. An owner or admin can click Create a calendar to start a new one.
2. Under Add an event, enter the Title, Date, Start, and an optional End.
3. For a day off, tick All day. For a break that runs several days, also set Last day, for an all-day run.
4. Add Where and an optional note.
5. To repeat it, pick Repeats, set Every, and set Until (for a repeat). For a weekly repeat, tick the weekdays.
6. Click Add event.
7. When the events look right, click Publish.

Import from a spreadsheet

1. Open Import events from a spreadsheet.
2. Paste rows with a header row: title, date, start, end, location, notes. Dates are YYYY-MM-DD and times are HH:MM.
3. Click Import. Any bad rows are named by line number.

Good to know

• Times use your organization's time zone.
• A repeat needs an until date.
• The event table shows the next 120 days.
• If the calendar needs review, a Publisher's new events wait as pending review until approved.
• Use Link to an activity to point an event at a signup, a ticketed event, or a fund drive, so families can tap through.
