We have two strategies for creating female only events.
EVENT EDITOR
1. CREATE EVENT > Go to control panel > EVENTS > ADD EVENT > enter content in Description tab > click ADD.
OPTIONAL: DESCRIPTION > SUBTITLE > enter "For female members & spouse/partners only"
OPTIONAL: DESCRIPTION > CONTROLS > switch toggle to YES for SUPPRESS DISPLAY on HOME page as next event.
This event displays on calendar, is not featured on HOME.
2. SET ATTENDEES. There are two options for completing this:
OPTION A: Both female members & spouses enter name.
EVENT EDITOR > Click DETAILS > ATTENDANCE > select Other > enter FEMALES ONLY > Description of who can attend enter preferred text > click SAVE.
EVENT PAGE > On event page > RSVP section > female members and female spouses enter their name in the open field.
WHO'S ATTENDING > Attendee names are displayed in the Who's Attending list after the member name. A female member name appears as their own guest.
OPTION B: Female members only enter name.
EVENT EDITOR > Click DETAILS > ATTENDANCE > check Spouses/Partners > select Other > enter FEMALES ONLY >
OPTIONAL: enter preferred text in the Description of who can attend field.
EVENT PAGE > On event page > RSVP section > any spouse/partner (including males) may mark attending next to their name, female members enter their name in the open field.
WHO'S ATTENDING LIST > Attendee names are displayed in the Who's Attending list after the member name. Female spouse names listed without member name, a female member name appears as their own guest.
3. COMPLETE EVENT SETUP > enter remaining event information as desired.
OPTIONAL: KEEP EVENT OFFLINE. An offline event is open for RSVP's only by those who receive an email invitation and click the RSVP link. This is the only way a person may access the event, as they will not find it in their event calendar.
EMAIL EDITOR
4. Send email invite twice using Select from Directory: the first one is sent to female members, the second one is sent to female spouses.
Send to female members and spouse:
A. Go to EMAIL > SEND EMAIL
B. SENDER > select preferred sender
C. RECIPIENTS > select by > Directory Individually > send to > check boxes for Member and Spouse/Partner > SELECT RECIPIENTS: > check boxes for female members and spouses/partners
5. Complete email steps and click SEND.
