How to create an external event on the calendar

External events are liberty-minded events hosted by organizations not associated with the FSP, and at which it would be useful for the FSP to have a presence or distribute material. To add such an event to the calendar, do the following:

  1. Log in, if not already logged in.
  2. On the navigation menu, click "Create Content", and then click "External Event" on the list of available content types.
  3. A form for collecting the information required to record the event is shown.
  4. Specify the event name, start and end dates, a short description (usually from the event website, with a link to that site), the location of the event, and other details to describe the event.
  5. For events that stretch longer than a day, the "All day" checkbox should be turned on.
  6. Submit the form.
The new item will be created, and the event will show up with other external events in the table that tracks upcoming external events.
