Accessing Events
Use the global shortcut /events to open to the Events modal. The shortcut option will appear as you type /events into the search bar or any conversation message.
Alternatively, users can access the modal by clicking the Events button in the Tightknit app home under the Events module.
For non-admin users, the Events List modal displays all events published to any channel in the workspace.
Events List Panel
To see your community's upcoming events within a Slack workspace, use the global shortcut to show events to all users within a workspace.
The easiest way to access this shortcut is to type /events in any message input box.
This will display a list of all events that are currently scheduled.
From this panel, everyone in the community can:
- See all upcoming events
- See all past events
For Admins and designated champion users they can:
- Create new event drafts
- Publish events or Request approval for events (Learn more about the approval process here)
- Edit and delete events
