Events
Your community’s events, reachable from any navigation bar.
Before you start
Section titled “Before you start”| Plugin | Ultimate Member - Events |
| Endpoint group | Content |
| Plan | Every plan |
Add it to your app
Section titled “Add it to your app”Drag Events onto a navigation bar. A community that runs events regularly should give this a bottom-nav slot; one that runs them occasionally should put it in the side drawer.
Settings
Section titled “Settings”| Setting | What it does | Default |
|---|---|---|
| URL | The events page to open | Your events page |
| Title, Description | Shown at the top | Empty |
| Restrictions | Which roles see the tab | Everyone |
What your members see
Section titled “What your members see”Your event listing and event pages. Members stay signed in, so events restricted to members show correctly rather than asking them to sign in again.
Reminding members
Section titled “Reminding members”An event nobody opens the app to look at is an event nobody attends. Two things help:
- Notifications, so an event announcement reaches members rather than waiting to be found.
- A News Feed post when an event opens, which is what members actually read.
The events tab is where members go once they already know there is something to look at.
When it does not work
Section titled “When it does not work”| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
