1. Event Status

  • NEW;
  • UPDATED;
  • TENTATIVE; and
  • TO BE DEFINED.

All of these statuses are available for all Timely customers on the Event creation screen.

In addition, now the event status shows up on the public view of your events calendar, on each event post. See below an example.

The NEW, UPDATED and TENTATIVE event statuses are clickable when the event has tickets associated with it.

Moreover, the event status can be automated. To enable the automation, simply go to the Settings > General > Misc Settings. When enabled, the event status will automatically change to NEW when an event is created or UPDATED when there is any change to the event.

Now, events can be set as featured events, giving you the option to highlight certain events in the public view of your events calendar, as shown in the image below.
