Events

 

PocketPlatform gets your event information in people's hands and empowers them to take action when something catches their eye!

Users have the option to view featured events or visualize events on a calendar. And if you have a lot of events, Users can filter events by Congregation or Ministry.

With PocketPlatform Events, Users can:

  • View the event date and time
  • View the event description
  • Send a message to the event's Primary Contact
  • Register, if the event is configured for registration

 

Platform Configuration

If you've set up your Event record in the Platform, then your event is available for PocketPlatform!

  • Image: The default image attached to the event displays.
  • Title: The event's title.
  • Ministry: The Ministry associated with the event displays under the event's Title.
  • Date & Time: The event's date and time. An event displays in the app until its Event End Date has passed.
  • Description: The description of your event. We recommend keeping it short and sweet. Note that HTML is not supported for this field in the Platform.
  • Primary Contact: The event's Primary Contact. Tap their name to send a message.
  • Instructions: Instructions for people attending your event. Note that HTML is not supported for this field in the Platform.
  • Register: Sign up for the event according to the event's Registration Product and Form. May redirect if you use the External Registration URL. See Creating an Event for more information.

Please note:

  • HTML is not supported for fields in the Platform and will not display in PocketPlatform.
  • PocketPlatform does not support file upload. This means PocketPlatform will not collect files from custom forms associated with your event.
