Create event website and define URL

evenito allows you to create several event-specific websites with your defined URL. The following article shows you the first steps in creating your website.

In addition, further actions such as previewing the website, editing and deleting are explained in more detail.

In this article:

 

To make the menu item "Website" appear in the navigation, first activate it in the basic setup of the Event Centre under "Functions".

Create website

In the menu item "Website" you can now add your event website using the plus button at the top right. 

Create event website and define URL1

Define the following information in the open window:

1. you don't want to build your website from scratch, but use a website template? Then click on the dropdown and select the desired template. Before you can select a template, you must first create a website in evenito and then save it. In this article we show you how to do this.

2. Name of the website

Please note that the name of the website will be displayed in the browser tab.

Create event website and define URL2

We will show you how to change the name if your website has already been set up HERE.

3. The URL of the website is composed of two building blocks by default.

  • The first module "URL" is event-specific, in this example "eventwebsite". When a website is set up for the first time or when an event is created based on a copy or a template, an individual combination of numbers and letters is automatically stored. You can change this part of the URL yourself either when creating the website or afterwards in the settings.
  • The second module "Domain" contains the general sub-domain. By default, the website runs via the evenito domain (evenito.site). If your domain has already been stored in the course of the implementation, you can select it in the dropdown.

Please note

The (sub)domain used must first be correctly referenced so that the content is displayed on the sub-domain. HERE you will find more information on how to do this.

The domain can be stored in your account by users with the role "Admin"

The entire URL may have a maximum of 64 characters. This includes all dots, hyphens and endings (e.g. com, .de, .ch).

 

As soon as you have entered the URL, the defined event URL will be displayed next to the website icon.

Please note

After publishing the website under the URL you defined, the automatic creation of the security certificate can take up to 30 minutes. Please reopen the website at a later time by clicking on the link. You can find more information in the article Publish or unpublish website.
