How to Use Event Categories?

Using Event Categories helps keep your events organized, improves event discoverability, and creates a clearer experience for both organizers and participants.

Event Categories help you organize your events by theme and make it easier for participants to find events that match their interests. This function is part of the existing Event creation feature.

What are Event Categories?

Event Categories allow you to label events based on their topic or purpose, such as yoga, technical sessions, management talks, or strategy meetings. Categories can also be color-coded to improve visual clarity in event listings.

How to create an Event Category?

Event Categories are managed from your admin panel. Go to Events > Settings, select Event Categories from the left menu and click Create New Category.

Enter a Category Name, add an optional Description and pick a Color. Then click Save.

Your new category will appear in the list with its color label. You can edit or delete your categories here at any time.

Once your categories are ready, open the event you are creating or editing and use the Categories toggles to assign one or more categories to it. Once saved, the categories will be linked to the event and displayed wherever events are listed.

How do Event Categories appear to participants?

Event Categories are visible to participants in the event list page. Participants can use category filters to narrow down events and quickly find those that are most relevant to them.

This makes browsing events easier, especially for communities that host multiple types of events.
