Summary

The Events screen in the RAY admin portal manages community events, such as a family day or a fitness class. An event has content (title, description, image), an RSVP or a registration link, a location, and one or more occurrences (dates and times). An event is Pending until it is published. The screen has two tabs: Events and Categories.

Where to find Events

  • Menu: Community → Events (Arabic: المجتمع ← الأحداث)
  • Tabs: Events and Categories
  • Clicking an event opens its page.

Events is shown only to users with an Admin role that includes the events feature.

Event page

The event page shows the event’s details, images and location, with Edit and Delete at the top and the status (Pending with Publish, or Published). Tabs:
  • Location and Timing (الموقع والتوقيت): the occurrences, with Location Name, Start Time and End Time. Add an occurrence, or Edit or Delete one. An occurrence has a Start Time, an End Time, and either the Default location or its own Location Name and Location Direction.
  • Audience (<number>): the invitees, with Host Name and, when RSVP is on, each invitee’s answer: Attending (with Checked In when they checked in), Maybe, Not Interested or No Response. For events invited to specific users, Add invites more users or groups and Delete removes an invitee. Export downloads the list.
  • Attachments: the event’s files.
