Feature Guide

Event Management

Create organisation events, build attendee lists, and send targeted notifications to everyone registered for a given event — all from the admin dashboard.

What Event Management provides

Event creation

Create named events with a date, time, location, and optional description. Events appear on a searchable admin list.

Attendee management

Add individual members or entire groups to an event's attendee list. Remove attendees as plans change.

Targeted notifications

Notify all event attendees with a broadcast message — optionally triggering push notifications to their devices.

Event history

Past events remain in the system for reference. View historical attendee lists and any messages sent to that event audience.

Events List & Event Detail

Manage all events from the admin panel and reach every attendee with a single click.

How to create an event and notify attendees

Navigate to Admin → Events

Open the admin dashboard and click 'Events' in the sidebar to see all upcoming and past events.

3

Add attendees

Use the 'Notify Attendees' action to send a broadcast message (and optionally a push notification) to everyone on the attendee list.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a Group and an Event in Org Comms?

Groups are persistent member segments (e.g. 'Engineering Team') that you message repeatedly. Events are time-bound occurrences (e.g. 'Annual Conference') with their own attendee list, which may or may not overlap with your groups.

Can I use a group as an event attendee list?

Yes. When adding attendees to an event you can add an entire group at once. The group's members at the time of adding become attendees — the event and group then remain independent.

Are attendees notified automatically when an event is created?

No. Creating an event does not automatically send a notification. You explicitly trigger notifications from the event detail view using the 'Notify Attendees' action, giving you full control over timing.

Can members see a list of events they are attending?

In the current boilerplate, members receive notifications and inbox messages about events but there is no dedicated 'My Events' calendar view in the member interface.

Who can create and manage events?

Users with admin or super_admin roles can create, edit, and manage events and their attendee lists.
