Many asked, and we listened! From now on, it is possible to modify the display of any event group depending on your specific needs.

The management tool is automatically attributing the default display to all event groups created and not configured. However, it is possible to determine the display type while creating an event group. Also, you can easily modify the display type of an event group previously created.

Follow the steps listed below to do so.



Create an event group

First of all, you need to group the desired events in Thepointofsale.com's management tool.

Don't know how to proceed? Please click the button below, and you will be redirected to the article on that matter.


Select the event group to be modified

If you just created an event group, stay on its creation page and go straight to step 6 in the procedure below.

If you want to modify a pre-existing event group, please complete all of the steps below:

  1. In the left menu of the management tool, click on Events, then on Event Groups. A search page will open.


  2. If you have access to more than one organization, choose the one associated with the event group you want to modify.

  3. Narrow your results by indicating which type is your event group:

    1. Date. Link all events with a common date;

    2. Edition. Link all events from the same edition, for instance, the 9th iteration of a festival.

    3. Location. Link all events with the same location.

    4. Performances. Link all performances, occurrences from the same show/event/conference.

    5. Season. Link all events from an operating season.

    6. Tour. Link all events from a tour.

  4. Click on Search to generate the matching event groups list.

  5. Click on the Modify button beside the event group for which you would like to modify the display type.

  6. On the bottom right of the event group page, you will find the Options section. Click on the drop-down menu beside Display, which will let you choose between the following:

    1. Default: Adapts to the event group's type. An event group with Performances type will display the Agenda, while the other event groups will display the List.

    2. Agenda: Displays the events within a list subdivided by dates.

    3. Calendar: Displays a monthly calendar with arrows to navigate between months.

    4. List: Displays a list of event thumbnails in chronological order.

  7. If need be, determine whether you want to display the private events within your event group for those who have the link.

  8. Click on Save, and you are all set!
