Creating Your Event

Log in to submit your event information.

Click the Create Event button and provide the details of your event. Items with asterisks are required information. In the Summary section, provide a brief description of the event. More detailed information can be included in the Full Description section. To include links refer to Tools & Techniques

In the Contact field, you can enter email addresses as shown in Tools & Techniques to protect them from spam. (Note to Cascade users: in the W&M Events system, you will always prepend the userid with the letter w, e, v or m followed by a vertical bar or pipe (|). Surround it with double square brackets, e.g. [[w|txjeff]].) 

 

Adding images to your event

The submission form provides a field to include an image. In this field, you will use an image URL. Find an image on the web and right click on it; the View Image option will provide the URL you need. (You cannot upload images to W&M Events.)

Be sure that the image URL you use for your event is one that you control so the link does not disappear. Also, be aware of any copyright restrictions.

Providing the URL for the image will bring the image into your event announcement, automatically sizing it to fit without distortion.

 

Edit Permission

You can always edit or delete your own events. If you are a calendar admin you may also grant the admins of your calendar edit rights for your event. Select "No one else" or one of your calendars from the dropdown provided to set permissions for the event.

 

It's now time to recommend your event.
