# Events

As with news items, it is worthwhile to develop a workflow and schedule for posting events. One can either create events from a PressForward item or create a new post.

To create a new events post, go to Dashboard > Events > Add New. 

1. Add a title and description of the event 
2. Add the event's dates 
3. Add the event's location and the organizer. If this information is not already populated in the drop-down menu, you can create them. 
4. Add the event website and its cost. 
5. Assign it an event category. 
6. Assign a research topic and focus tags for the event. 
7. Preview the event to make sure all of the information is correct, and publish it.
