The events manager
The Events Manager is a list that allows you to browse and manage all the events created within your RSEvents! installation. In the Manage Events screen, you are able to quickly change some event property. You can publish and unpublish an event, you can delete, edit and add a new event on the run. These actions are available in the default control area of Joomla! (top-right). The events manager table columns are:
- Event Name - showing a link with the event name. Clicking on it will edit the event;
- Subscribers - showing a link with the number of subscribers. Clicking on it will take you to the subscribers manager and will filter results to show only subscribers to that specific event;
- Owner - the user that created the event;
- Category - The category where the event is located;
- Location - The location where the event will take place;
- Event Start Date - Default ordering rule. When the event will start;
- Event End Date - When the event will end.
- Repeat - A event can repeat itself on certain dates, or periodically, as displayed below:

Events can be ordered by all columns. Also, events can be filtered using the free text filter (for search), and the Category and Location filters that allow you to see events in a specific category or events happening in a specific location.
Note:
- Unpublishing an event will make it disappear from the front-end listings, thus making them unavailable to regular subscribers but still accessible from My Events menu by the super administrator or owner of the event.
- Deleting an event will erase the entry from the database, making it impossible to recover.
- Duplicating events will create a copy of the selected events, adding to the name the word "Copy" without the Extras and files.
