Make the Most of Event Scheduling
Planning events just got easier! Here's where to find event scheduling in the Admin Hub and how to use it effectively in the app.
1. Where to find the Event Scheduling feature 0:11
- Go to Content in the app/hub.
- Click Create Content.
- Notice that Events are no longer under Content Type.
- They now live in their own section under Content Delivery and Engagement.
2. Create an event with date and time details 0:30
- Use the new Event area when you want event dates to appear on your content items.
- Add the date and time for when the event should happen.
- Once saved, the event will display in the app with its date/time details.
- Users can see events on the in-app calendar and can also add them to their personal calendars.
3. Set up recurring events 0:47
- Use the improved recurrence options if the event repeats.
- Choose how often it should repeat:
- Daily
- Monthly
- Yearly
- Or another custom recurrence pattern
- Example: schedule a meeting for the first Thursday of every month.
4. Choose when the recurrence ends 1:04
- For an ongoing recurring event, leave the end date set to Never.
- Save the recurrence settings.
- This keeps the event dates repeating indefinitely in the app until you change it.
5. Let the app automatically refresh the next occurrence 1:15
- After the current event ends, the app will automatically update.
- The next scheduled date will appear in the app’s Main Feed.
- This removes the need to manually recreate standing events.
6. Support and follow-up 1:29
- The update is meant to make event management easier and more flexible.
