===== Adding An Event =====

{{youtube>Wq8bDkwo-qk?medium}}

  * Login the the Maui Now Wordpress Dashboard: http://mauinow.com/wp-admin/

  * On the Left Menu, click "Event Calendar" * This will display a list of all events in the calendar.   Arranged by time of entry.
 
  * Click the blue "+ Add Event" link in the top right corner.
 
  * Fill in the fields as thoroughly as possible:

- **Venue:** This field will autofill the address/city if it's already in the system.   Start by typing a venue name in the textbox, and use the up/down arrow keys to select a pre-saved venue.

- **Event Timeframe:** Only fill in the time of day (i.e. 1pm - 2pm)

- **Featured (checkbox):** Items checked as featured will be put at the top of the day's event list, and labeled with a "Featured" tag.   Unless specified by sales/management, leave this unchecked.

- **Youtube Video Link: If the event has a Youtube video associated with it, add the link to this field. (i.e. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALsJxDYUwAw )

- **Tags:** You can select more than one tag... EVERY EVENT MUST HAVE AT LEAST ONE TAG SELECTED

- **Event Date:** If the event is non-recurring (Not every Monday, Tues, Wed...), select the event date.

- **Event End Date:** If the event occurs within a date range, enter the end date for the event.  Leave this field blank if the event is only one day, or if it is a weekly recurring event.

- **Recurring Event:** If the event occurs every week, leave the "Event Date/Event End Date" fields blank, and select the days of week the event happens on.

- **Event Image:** Try to have an image available for every event.   To add an image, click the "Upload Image" button.   You can either upload an image or select one from the Media Library.   Once you have selected the appropriate image, click "Insert Into Post"

===== Editing An Event =====

  * You can edit an event one of two ways.   You will need to be logged into the Wordpress Dashboard (http://mauinow.com/wp-admin) to edit the events:

  * Method 1: From the Event Calendar Page (http://events.mauinow.com), click "Edit, Delete, or Move to Top" under the event listing.
 
  * Method 2: From the Wordpress Dashboard, click "Event Calendar" on the left menu.   Click "Edit" or "Delete" next to the event you want to modify.
