Your organization’s events page provides a single destination where everyone at your company can view, add, and edit company events, birthdays, and work anniversaries.
To view your organization's Events page.
Visit your Organization page by clicking your organization avatar in your top navigation bar—this is likely your company logo.
Then, click Events in the page menu. This will take you to your events page.
Events are listed in chronological order and will include company events (those created in a post or as a stand-alone event—keep reading to learn more about the different types of events), birthdays, and anniversaries. You can also click the event filters in the left-hand menu to display specific types of events in your feed.
To view events on your feed.
In addition to your organization’s events page, a shortlist of upcoming events is also displayed on your feed’s smart menu. To see this shortlist...
Click the personal feed in your top navigation bar—this is the house icon.
The upcoming events section can be found on the left side of your feed, under your list of recent groups.
To add events to your events page.
There are three kinds of events displayed on your organization’s events page and on your feed smart menu. These events are each added to the feed in a unique way.
Adding a company event, attached to a post.
If you’d like to share a company event as part of a post, you can simply add an event module to any Employee Community post. Once your post is published, your event will automatically be added to your organization’s events page.
Learn more about adding events to posts here: Adding an event to an Employee Community post.
NOTE: If you are sharing your post with an attached event in a private group, only members of the private group will be able to see the event on the organization’s event page.
Adding a company event, not attached to a post (a stand-alone event).
There are some cases where you may want to share a company event that is not attached to an Employee Community post. In this case, you’ll want to create a stand-alone event. Here’s how...
Visit your organization page by clicking on your organization avatar in your top navigation bar—this is likely your company logo.
Then, click Events in the page menu. This will take you to your events page.
Click Create Event on the right side.
Enter the event details and cover photo into the module.
Once saved, your event will appear on your organization’s events page and will be visible to all users. All users are permitted to create stand-alone events.
Adding a milestone (birthday or work anniversary).
If an Employee Community user has their birthday and/or anniversary listed on their profile, it will automatically be added to the events page. Not sure how to add this information to profiles? Learn more here: Setting up your Employee Community profile.
