How it works

  • This is a section within the Create or Edit an Event Category page

  • This section displays the fields that are used on the Event Creation page, i.e. these are the fields that will appear on the Create/Edit Event page

  • There are default fields that you cannot remove and which exist for all events:

    • Start date & time

    • End date & time

    • Event name

  • Beyond this you can add additional custom fields

  • To add custom fields, press the Create New Field button

    • In the popup, add the name of the field and select what type of field it is

  • Any fields you create here are added to your Fields Library

  • You can alternatively add a field from your Fields Library. To do this, start typing the name of the field in the Available Fields search bar
