Create an Event on the Website


[EARLY DRAFT VERSION]

Once the Event has been approved an Event can be created in Member Jungle.

This tutorial will focus on the steps needed for a climbing meet that assumes, 15 attendees, including 3 Trip Leaders. To assist we have a help page explaining some primary concerns about how Events work in Member Jungle -> https://cca.memberjungle.club/admin-events 

Steps

  1. Open the Events Module
  2. Choose 'List Events' from the left side menu.
    • A list of Events will be displayed
    • There are some events in the list with a name starting with [TEMPLATE]. These are intended to be copied and used for specific events and meets
  3. Click the copy icon  next to the '[TEMPLATE] Limited Attendees - Ticketed' event
    • You can choose a different template depending on the type of event you're registering. Most of the steps will still be quite similar
  4. Provide an Event name, start date, end date and then select the 'clone' button.
    • A new Event will then be created and you'll see it in the list of events.
    • It won't be visible anywhere just yet
    • We still need to customise some of the details before publishing it
  5. Click the 'Edit' icon to customise the event 
  6. Provide Details on the 'General' tab
    • short description and description are important. Some template text is in the description that can be re-used if it's useful
  7. Save, then move to the Locations tab
    • The google map can be made to display a location that doesn't have a street address by just populating the Address line 1, then selecting the 'regenerate' button next to the map
    • This location and map will be displayed to users when registering
  8. Save, then move to the Image/Documentation tab
    • Upload an image and thumbnail if you have one
  9. Save, the move to the Contact tab
    • This information will be visible to everyone, so consider what information you make available. It might be best not to provide private phone or email addresses.
  10. Save
    • Generally there's no need to customise the Security, Other, Registration, Emails or Ticketing tabs, but feel free to have a look and edit what you think is appropriate.
  11. Go to the Form tab
    • You'll be prompted that you're leaving the form, select ok
  12. These are the default questions asked when people register for this event. You can modify the questions to make them appropriate for your event. Please consider the CCA questions defined in the CCA Operations Manual when removing questions. Some are necessary for all climbing meets such as emergency contact, others can be customised for specific types of events, such as car pooling.
    • When you edit a field it is automatically saved (there's no special save button when you're on the 'Form' tab
  13. When you're done, 'Activate' the event by checking the check box
  14. Then preview it by either going to the calendar via the home page, or selecting the 'preview' icon in the events list.

Register Yourself


  You should start by registering yourself and encouraging your Trip Leaders to do the same.
