Event topics are the templates from which venues can create events. They are a great way of moderating the types of information shown and create brand consistency
To create a new Event Topic:
Please note, Events can only be managed through the Desktop
- Click on Events in the main banner bar
- Click on Topics in the navigation bar
In the Topics page you will see two areas:
Create a new topic
List of all existing topics
In the top part of the page you can create a new topic by completing the required information:
Title: this will be used by stores to identify the topic. Customers will also see this title when booking into an event
Detail: provide as much detail around the topic, this will automatically populate the event description
Thumbnail image: this is the image associated with the topic and populates in the booking widgets. We recommend a landscape image for best quality
Banner Image: this provides the header with a background, we recommend using solid colour or very simple images
Icon and Colour: this sets the colour the topic shows as in the list and colours the action buttons during the booking journey
Once completed press Create and the topic will be created
In order for stores to use your newly created Topic, you must assign it to an Event Series. If you have not created an Event Series yet, click here.
To assign your new topic to an Event Series:
Click on All Future Events
Find the event series you want to add the new event topic to and press Edit
Under Available Topics use the dropdown to select which topics are available for this event series. A tick will appear next to the topics selected
Scroll down to the bottom of the page and press Save Changes
