As a built in feature of the Calendar widget, you may enable online event submission so that the site users may submit their own events from the front end of the website. The Event Submission section of the site will allow you to screen those events and verify, delete or ignore them as required.

How to Submit an Event

When on an Calendar widget from a logged out view of the website, if the feature is enabled there will be a link to submit an event above the listing of event.

After clicking the link above a lightbox popup will appear:

Fill out the fields as required and submit the event. A confirmation email will be sent to the email address provided with the form. The submitter will need to confirm submission of the event before it will appear as a Confirmed event on the Event Submission tab of the Calendar component.

How to Manage a Submitted Event

Under Site Content in the primary CMS menu, select the Calendar link in the dropdown menu. Click the Event Submission tab.

The Event Submission list will be displayed, containing a list of the existing Confirmed event submissions.

You can review each item as required or delete them by clicking on the row and selecting the appropriate item from the drop down.

To verify one or more of the submitted events, select the checkbox at each row of the event you wish to verify and then click the Verify Selected button at the top of the page.

This will prompt the verify confirmation message.

Click OK to verify the event or Cancel to abort.

Once verified, the event will be moved to the main calendar list as a new item, and will need to be published before it will be visible to the public website.

To delete one or more of the submitted events, select the checkbox at each row of the event you wish to delete and then click the Delete Selected button at the top of the page.

This will prompt the delete confirmation message.

Click OK to delete the event or Cancel to abort.
