Upcoming Events provide you with a prettier way to show events that are happening in the near future in an easier to see manner than a Calendar. When you add a Set of Upcoming Events you give it a Name and a Description:
Once you've added your set you can click on it and start adding Events:
You give it a Title, Location, Time, Date, Short Description, Long Description, and an optional Price. You can remove the event from the site at any time by unticking the Active box.
Once you've added all of your events you'll be able to see them on your site:
The great part about Upcoming Events is that they will disappear off the list once the date they are on passes. This happens automatically. You can reuse an expired event simply by changing its Date.
Another cool feature is that you can download an Event or all of the Events into your Outlook (or other) Calendar using the vEvent format. Just like our Contacts Directory we encode the events on the page using the hCalendar format so that future hCalendar readers will be able to read the events straight off the page!
