Once it is on, each space gets its own **Events** page, members can create events without leaving the portal, and every published event is announced in the space feed with a link to buy tickets. You decide, per space, who can see, create, and manage those events. ### **Prerequisites** - **Eventin** and **Eventin Pro** — installed and active. The module is a Pro feature. - **FluentCommunity** — installed and active, with at least one space created. - **Pretty permalinks** — set **Settings → Permalinks** to anything other than *Plain*, so the in-portal event pages resolve. ### **Step 1 — Turn on the FluentCommunity module** Go to **Eventin → Extensions** and scroll to the **Modules** section. Find the **FluentCommunity** card and switch its toggle on. The integration only runs once this toggle is on — a card that merely looks enabled is not enough. ![The Modules section of the Eventin Extensions page with the FluentCommunity card highlighted and its toggle switched on.](https://themewinter.com/docs/plugins/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2026/08/image.png) ### **Step 2 — Enable events for a space** Events are switched on one space at a time, so a community can keep events in the spaces where they belong. Open the space in the portal, click the **…** menu beside the space name and choose **Customize Space** (or add `?customize_space=1` to the space URL). In **General Settings**, scroll to the **Eventin Events** section. 1. Tick **"Enable Eventin Events"**. Until this is ticked, the space has no event pages and no Events link. 2. Click **"Save Changes"**. ![The Eventin Events section inside a FluentCommunity space's General Settings, with the Enable Eventin Events checkbox ticked and the three permission options below it.](https://themewinter.com/docs/plugins/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2026/08/image-1.png) ### **Step 3 — Choose who can see, create, and manage events** The same **Eventin Events** section holds three permission settings. They are checked on every request, so a member never gets more than you grant here. - **Who can see events** — *Follow space privacy* (a public space shows events to everyone, a private space to its members), *All logged-in users*, or *Space members only*. - **Who can create events** — *All members*, *Moderators & admins*, or *Admins only*. Creators get the **Create Event** link and can finish their own event through every step of the wizard. - **Who can manage events** — the same three choices. Managers can edit and delete *other people's* events in that space; everyone else is limited to their own. Site administrators always have full access, whatever these are set to. ### **Step 4 — Open the space and check the new links** Back on the space page, the header now shows an **Events** link, and a **Create Event** link for anyone allowed to create. Members who cannot create only see **Events**. ![A FluentCommunity space header showing the new Events and Create Event links next to Posts and Members.](https://themewinter.com/docs/plugins/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2026/08/image-2.png) ### **Browsing events inside the portal** Clicking **Events** opens the Eventin dashboard inside the community portal, at `/eventin-events//`. The list is scoped to that space: only events assigned to it appear, so two spaces never show each other's events. ![The Eventin event list rendered inside the FluentCommunity portal, showing two upcoming events that belong to the Community Events space.](https://themewinter.com/docs/plugins/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2026/08/image-3.png) Clicking an event title opens its preview — the full event page, still inside the portal, with the description, schedule, and a **Tickets** panel. Choosing a quantity and clicking **Get Tickets** sends the buyer to the normal Eventin checkout. ![An event preview page inside the FluentCommunity portal, with the event description on the left and the date, venue, and Tickets panel with a Get Tickets button on the right.](https://themewinter.com/docs/plugins/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2026/08/image-4.png) ### **Buying a ticket** Set a quantity in the **Tickets** panel and click **Get Tickets**. The buyer lands on your site's usual Eventin **Event Booking** page: attendee and billing details first, then the booking summary and **Payment Options**, ending with **Proceed to Payment**. Checkout runs outside the community portal by design, so your existing gateways, currency, and tax settings apply exactly as they do everywhere else. Enable at least one payment method under **Eventin → Settings → Payments** first. Without one, the ticket panel shows *"Payment methods are not enabled for this event!"* and the **Get Tickets** button stays greyed out. ![The Eventin Event Booking checkout page reached from the portal, showing billing information on the left and the booking summary with Payment Options and the Proceed to Payment button on the right.](https://themewinter.com/docs/plugins/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2026/08/image-7.png) ### **Creating an event from inside the space** **Create Event** opens the same four-step Eventin wizard — *Basic Info*, *Tickets*, *Schedule*, *Advanced* — in the portal. Fill in the name, time zone, dates, and times, add tickets, then click **Publish**. The event is assigned to the space automatically, so it lands in that space's list without any extra step. ![The Eventin create-event wizard open inside the FluentCommunity portal on the Basic Info step, with Event Name, Description, Time Zone, and Banner fields.](https://themewinter.com/docs/plugins/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2026/08/image-5.png) ### **What members see in the feed** Every time an event is published in a space, Eventin posts it to that space's feed with the event banner and a **View event & get tickets** link straight to the in-portal preview. Draft events post nothing — the feed entry appears the moment the event is published. ![A FluentCommunity space feed post announcing a new event, with the event banner and a View event and get tickets link.](https://themewinter.com/docs/plugins/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2026/08/image-6.png) ## **FAQs** #### **Q: I turned on the module but my space has no Events link. Why?** **A:** The module toggle alone does nothing to a space. Open that space's **Customize Space → General Settings → Eventin Events**, tick **Enable Eventin Events** and save. Each space is off until you enable it. #### **Q: The Events link opens a "page not found". What is wrong?** **A:** Almost always permalinks. Go to **Settings → Permalinks**, pick any option other than *Plain*, and click **Save Changes** — that rebuilds the URLs the portal pages use. #### **Q: Do members need a WordPress role to create events?** **A:** No. Permission comes from their role in the space plus your **Who can create events** setting. An ordinary subscriber who is an active member of the space can create events there, and nowhere else. #### **Q: Can a member edit someone else's event?** **A:** Only if they match **Who can manage events**. Everyone else can edit and finish their own events; attempts on other people's events are refused by the server, not just hidden. #### **Q: Will these events also show on my main website?** **A:** Yes. They are ordinary Eventin events, so they appear in the WordPress admin, in your event archive and shortcodes, and in the Eventin dashboard as usual. The space assignment only controls which space lists them in the portal. #### **Q: Where does ticket checkout happen?** **A:** On your site's normal Eventin checkout page. **Get Tickets** in the portal hands the buyer over to the same booking flow used everywhere else, so your existing payment settings apply unchanged. #### **Q: How do I switch events off again for one space?** **A:** Untick **Enable Eventin Events** in that space's settings and save. The links and pages disappear for that space; the events themselves stay in Eventin, and other spaces are untouched. ## **Conclusion** Turn on the module once, enable **Eventin Events** in the spaces that need it, and pick the three permission levels. From then on your community browses, creates, previews, and buys tickets for events without ever leaving the portal — and every published event announces itself in the space feed.
