Events — every field explained

Identity

• Page address (slug) — the event’s URL on your site: yoursite.com/THIS. Lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens; it is what you share.
• Published — unticked, the event is a draft: invisible on your public site and nothing can be bought. Tick when ready.
• Name — the event’s title everywhere: page, tickets, emails.
• Tagline — a short line under the name on the event page (optional).
• Location — where it happens; shown on the page and in the ticket email.
• Description — the long text of the event page: programme, what to bring, anything buyers should know.

If your site has more than one language enabled (up to five: English, Portuguese, Spanish, Italian and French), each of these appears once per language — fill them all so each visitor reads their own language, or let Translate everything do it for you (see below).

Start from your flyer, and translate everything

• Start from your flyer — when you create an event, upload a photo or PDF of the flyer (or just type one sentence about the event) and the event form fills itself in: name, date, place, description. Check it, adjust anything, then publish. There is a monthly allowance of these AI setups.
• Translate everything — if your site offers more than one language, one click translates the event’s texts into all of them. Read the result before publishing: you know your audience best, and you can edit any translation.

Dates and the sales window

• Starts at / Ends at — when the event actually happens. Drives the countdown, the dashboard’s live mode on the day, and “event finished” afterwards.
• Sales open at / Sales close at — the ONLINE selling window, independent of the event dates. Before it opens the page shows “sales open soon”; after it closes, “sales closed”. Leave blank for no limit.

The box office (in-person sales at the door) is NOT limited by the sales window — staff can always sell on the day.

Times are read as UK time (Europe/London).

Look and extras

• Banner — the big image at the top of the event page. Upload one or reuse a previously uploaded image.
• Theme — the colour skin of the event page. Same layout, different palette; you can fine-tune individual colours after picking one, with a live preview.
• Ask for a donation at checkout — adds an optional donation section (£2/£5/£10 or custom) to this event’s checkout. Untick for events where asking does not fit.
