having to duplicate your content. This feature greatly improves the usability of your event
oriented website and optimizes the content for better SEO.
MULTIPLE DATES & RECURRENCEwpEventful allows you to make a multitude of configurations for each event. You can
combine multiple dates with recurrence and create complex events such as conferences,
cinema schedules, etc. On www.wpeventful.com you will find many examples that cover a
vast range of situations regarding how to create a simple event or more complex ones.
STEP 3.2 ARTISTS
Another very important aspect of your event is represented by the people/artists involved.
They are the soul of your events and you may need to display them interconnected with
the locations they appear on, representations and contractors/organizers. With
wpEventful platform you can create roles for your artists using categories, show upcoming
representations and create a repertory for each individual with current and past events.
Not only you will be able to create very complex events oriented websites but you will do
this focusing on providing valuable content for your visitors by showing information that is
already there in multiple forms.
There are two ways to create artists for your events.
The first one is to simply go to Events Meta Box and click on Artists tab. This will display a
list of categories/roles for your artists and an input field. Add your artists name into the
input box and click on the plus button on the right. If your artist is already created it will
appear on the auto-suggest box bellow the input area. Since this is your first event we can
assume there are no artists created previously. Add as many artists as you need, one nameat a time. You dont need to worry about roles at this moment as you can modify this after
you publish your event. Also, when you publish your event, the new artists will be

automatically created for your and you can modify them from the Artists section in
WordPress Administration, accessible from the left side menu.
The second method to create your artists is by going to WordPress Dashboard and click
on Artists > Add Artist in the left hand menu. This will take you to a new page where you
can add the name of your artist in the title field, a description, featured image, set up the
categories that will act as roles, and configure many other features.
For a detailed step-by-step guide on how to create and modify your Artists please see Your
first artistsection of this documentation.
Step 3.3 Featured Event
When you have a list of events you may wish to promote some of them. We wanted to offer
you the possibility to highlight certain events so we added in the Events Meta box a section
called Featured. If you activate this option your event will automatically be displayed on
front page slider and the thumbnails will have a small ribbon with the text Feat..
Step 4 SEO Meta Box
These days, every good website needs extensive SEO work and customization. wpEventful
platform offers you the possibility to customize a bundle of aspects of your website through
different techniques. In order to increase the visibility of your events on search engines, we
added the SEO Meta box where you can modify the default description and add specific
keywords. Every keyword must be comma separated. These options will increase the
relevance of every event and add more juice to your content.
Step 5 Event Categories
One of the default features of WordPress is ability to organize your content in categories.

multiple categories. Also, if you need a new category, you can create one directly from the
Edit Event page.
Step 6 Featured Image
Another default WordPress option is the Featured Image Meta box. If you do not add an
image to your event, wpEventful will add a default "no-image" picture. Since WordPress
does such a good job to resize images we would only want to recommend you not to use
images bigger then 1400px width or to check the file upload limit on your server.
Step 6 OrganizerUsually events are held by individuals, organizations, companies, etc. You can select the
Organizer/s from a list created previously. If you select an organizer, the event will show in
front-end under that organizer.
Please read section Your First Organizerof this documentation.

YOUR FIRST ARTIST
One of the key aspects of wpEventful platform is that it allows you add artists/people to
your events. If you wish to create events such as conferences, concerts, shows, movies,
galleries, theater plays, trainings, etc. you will need to add those persons that make your
event interesting and appealing to the audience. No matter what kind of people your event
involves, you can add them in a dynamic way with wpEventful platform. You can assign
roles by creating specific categories for each artist, date of birth, gender and website. Also,
you can highlight certain artists from your database by using the featured options available
in Add New Artist page.
In the section Your First Event, you discovered how easy it is to create a new artist directly
from Add New Event page and now we will present to you a second, more in-depth method
that will permit you to take advantage of all the features available for the Artists custom
post type.
You will need to start from the left side menu in you WordPress Dashboard by clicking on
Artists > Add Artist link. This will open the Add New Artist page and all you have to do is
follow the next steps:
Step 1 Artist Name
In the title field enter the name of your artist.
Step 2 Artist Description
Next you can add a description of your artist using either the default WordPress formatting
tools or by taking advantage of the powerful Shortcodes you will discover in the Shortcodes
Meta box. To find out more about the Layout Shortcodes and those created especially for
the Artists custom post-type, please see the Shortcodes section of this documentation.

search engines, we added the SEO Meta box where you can modify the default description
and add specific keywords. Every keyword must be comma separated. These options will
increase the relevance of every event and add more juice to your content.
Step 5 Artist Categories
Categories in Artists custom post-type were designed to give you the possibility to add
roles to your artists. For example, if you wish to add a list of people involved into a theater
play, you will need to differentiate actors from extras, directors, producers, musicians or
dancers. All you have to do is to create categories for each occupation and allocate each
artist to his/her specific category. You can allocate multiple roles to each artist and in every
event you will be able to select a specific role or multiple roles. Lets take the above
example and go forward and say that you have two theater plays; the ARTIST X is a directorin PLAY 1. In PLAY 2, ARTIST X is the director and one of the actors. wpEventful will
display both categories to the artist page (director and actor) but for each event will
display only the allocated role.
Also, if you need a new category, you can create one directly from the Add/Edit Artist page
or go into the left hand menu and click on Artist > Artist Categories.
