Events

Events show in the Events tab of the Serve app, like a team night, training or serve day. Volunteers can say whether they're going.

Go to Volunteers > App > Events. Pick a ministry first.

These are separate from events in Sign Ups, which are for registrations and payments.

Create an event

1. Click New event. A draft is created and saves as you go.
2. Fill in the Title, Starts, Start time, Ends and End time. Leave the start time blank for an all-day event.
3. Add a Location, Map link and Details.
4. Optionally add a button, like "Sign up", with a link.
5. Add a Cover image.

Ask for RSVPs

Turn on Ask for an RSVP. Volunteers answer I'm going or Can't make it.

• Answer by (optional) closes answers at the end of that day.
• After publishing, you'll see Going, Can't make it and No answer yet.
• Click Ask again to send a notification to people who haven't answered.

You can post to everyone going with a post audience of Going to an event. See Posts.

Publish

1. Click Publish. (You need a title and a date first.)
2. Pick who sees it.
3. Choose whether to send a notification. This is only offered when RSVPs are on.

Deleting removes the event and every RSVP. Posts that linked it will show nothing where the event was.
