The Event Status section is the default landing page of the Events Manager.
All events (e.g., sessions and meetings) have Approvals functionality enabled and this page allows site admins to define custom status options. The Default Event Status can be set in the event category form.
Important Notes:
- The system defines the Approved, Denied, and Pending Approval states by default, and site admins cannot remove or delete them.
- The front-end label of these default statuses can be modified by editing the text in the Status field.
- The event status determines whether individual sessions or meetings can be accessed publicly.
- Select the Searchable checkbox to make the status public and allow it to appear as a filter when visitors search.
- Click the Create New Status link to generate a new custom status.
- Some visibility settings are controlled on the front end via specific event block settings.
