Communities now have support for Events. This new discussion style makes it easier for a community to publish a calendar and handle all aspects around events such as invitations, RSVP, notifications. Events comes with the support for embedding Social Live Videos into an event page.
With Events, you can harness the enthusiasm generated by interactions between your customers, company, and brand ambassadors and foster deeper connections with your customers. Events provide a platform to schedule, announce, inform, and discuss all kinds of topics with as many, or as few, people as you want.
Events can be created at a Community, Category or Group Hub level. An Events node page includes all events created in that node. This page also contains list/calendar views, filter options based on event status & labels.
