Create an Event

Two methods for creating a new Special Event in the Linvio Events app, including choosing a record type and completing the required fields. Test the registration process thoroughly after setup.

• Method #1 (recommended)
• Method #2

Important

After setting up your event, make sure to test it thoroughly by running through the registration process.

Method #1 (recommended)

1. Go to the Linvio Events app and click on Special Events. Then click on New.
   
   
   Alternatively, click the drop-down arrow next to Special Events and click New Special Event.
   
   
   
2. Choose a record type. Click Next.
   
   
   
3. Fill in the required fields. Always review the following fields:
   By Invitation: check to produce a unique invitation code that people would need to register
   Show Captcha: always check this for security
   Landing Page Content: this is where you add information that will show on the event page; fill in at least the Event Summary/Detail Page
   For JWiB/JMB/JMP:  Fill in the Premier Hosting Event Type field, to ensure the event attendance populates on the attendee's 2YR application.
   Fill in the other fields if possible - they will vary by Event Type. Click Save.
   
   
   
4. Your event is now created!  Next move to Custom Map Fields.
