Creating an event in the Closer Platform is a simple, guided process. Click the "Create Event" button (usually found on the top-right of the Events page or in your Admin Dashboard) to launch the multi-step event creation flow.
In this initial step, you will:
Enter the Event Title: For example, "Tree Planting Weekend" or "Harmonia Spring Gathering".
Provide a Detailed Description: Use a rich-text editor to explain the agenda, objectives, or any special notes.
Set Virtual Options: Toggle whether the event is virtual. If so, additional fields (e.g., YouTube Recording URL) will appear.
Configure Booking Calendar Blocking: Choose whether this event should block the Booking Calendar from accepting other bookings during its timeframe.
Enter Event Location: Provide a physical address if the event is in-person, or indicate if it’s exclusively virtual.
Set Visibility: Choose from Public, Custom (e.g., for select groups), Private, or Secret.
Define the Event Slug:
Create a unique URL identifier (e.g., harmonia-spring-2025
).
After filling in the General tab, click Next to move to ticket settings, or Save to retain the current information.
Here you set up the ticketing options:
Ticket Types: Define different ticket options like General Admission, VIP, or Volunteer Ticket.
Pricing and Quantities: Set a price (fiat or token-based) and a maximum number of tickets for each type.
Discounts and Early-bird Options: Optionally provide discount codes or automatic discounts for specific groups.
Day Tickets vs. Full Event Passes: For multi-day events, you can designate tickets for single days or the full event.
After configuring ticketing, proceed to the next tab if available or save your progress.
In this final step:
Set Event Date & Time: Specify the start and end date/time, which automatically categorizes the event as upcoming or past.
Additional Fields: Optionally enter a Participation Guide URL, event capacity, and any special partner or volunteer details.
Media Upload: Add a banner image or other visuals to represent the event.
Publish Options: Choose to publish immediately or schedule a future time for the event to go live.
Once complete, click Publish (or Save) to finalize your new event.
