Docs: Creating an Event

Creating an Event

This is actually really easy. Let’s start in the WordPress dashboard — you should be able to find a menu entry called Events and, if you click on it, you should see the Add New link.

Once you’ve found it, go ahead and click on it! This should bring you to the event editor.

The event editor hopefully won’t contain too many surprises: it is intentionally almost identical — at least on first glance — to the regular page and post editor used by WordPress itself.

So, if you’re familiar with WordPress, you should feel right at home. Here is how to create an event in the classic editor:

  1. Add a title to your event
  2. Describe your event
  3. Select the date and time for your initial event (required), as well as any desired recurrences (optional)
  4. Select an existing venue or create your own (optional)
  5. Specify the event organizer (optional)
  6. Link to an external website about the event (optional)
  7. Determine if the event should be featured (optional)
  8. Upload a featured image to display in event listings (optional)

If you are using Block Editor, the default layout will look slightly different:

  1. Add a title to your event
  2. Select the date and time for your initial event (required), as well as any desired recurrences (optional)
  3. Describe your event
  4. Add a price for your event (optional)
  5. Specify the event organizer (optional)
  6. Select an existing venue or create your own (optional)
  7. Link to an external website about the event (optional)
  8. Provide visitors with a way to add this event to their own calendar software (optional)
  9. Show related events (optional)
  10. Display tickets/RSVPs if using Event Tickets and Event Tickets Plus (optional)
  11. Show who is attending the event if using Event Tickets Plus (optional)
  12. Select an Event Category (optional)
  13. Upload a featured image to display in event listings (optional)
  14. Determine if the event should be featured (optional)
