Assigning an event to a particular region


If you hold Events in multiple locations, consider using the Regions feature to help your Users determine which Events are feasible to attend based on their geographical location.

For example:
  • If you are based in a large city, such as Houston, and hold Events throughout the area, you may have Regions set up for different areas of the city: Downtown, Galleria, West/Katy, Greenspoint/Woodlands, South Houston, etc.
  • If you serve multiple markets throughout the state or country, you may have Regions set up for different cities or states where you will be hosting Events or maybe geographical regions such as South, Southwest, West, etc.
  • If you serve an international market, Regions can be set up for different countries.

 

Before using Regions, you will need to set up all Regions served by your organization.

To add a Region:

  1. From the Tendenci console, scroll down the the Admin Only Block and choose Regions.
  2. Click Add a Region. (or click Add from the horizontal nav)
  3. Enter the Region Name, Region Code and Description.
  4. Click Add Region.
Repeat until all Regions have been added.


Then include the Region when adding an event and/or add the Region field to your Membership application. To assign a Region to an event, use the Region droplist in section C) Region Information of the add/edit an event screen.

Once you have established Regions, your Monthly Calendar can be filtered by Region either manually by the User or through quick-links you set up for each Region.
