Event Categories
Standardise the information you collect about your events
Every event belongs to an Event Category and you can create as many Event Categories as you like.
Within an Event Category you can set:
The fields used on the Event Creation Form (this is the screen you see when you create or edit the event)
Event Guest Booking Form fields (this is an optional form you can add that collects event-specific information about each guest that is likely to vary for that guest on different events)
Guest Background Information custom table fields (this is information from the guest’s Contact Profile Page that you want to be displayed whenever that guest is booked into an event)
Which event roles are available to be assigned to event guests and/or event workers
Whether event guests can be assigned to specific event workers
Your initial set of event categories
By default, the following Event Categories are created for every new charity which you can edit based on your requirements:
Appointments
Classes
Conferences
Gatherings

On your event’s page the Event Category is shown on the left side in the Event Information box.
