About Events

The RCCL contains many features to create and manage events on your website. The Event content type utilizes rich text to display content and can be shared with other RCCL websites (assuming content syndication is enabled).

Event Content Type Guide

Events Taxonomy

To setup categories for different types of events, go to Structure > Taxonomy > Event Type in the content management system. Numerical taxonomy IDs (e.g. /taxonomy/term/10) are used to filter and display events when using event related components.

How To Find a Taxonomy ID

Events Views

The Drupal version of the RCCL features Views which automatically collect and display content in one place. Event related content has two associated views that function out of the box:

  • Events - 'YourDomain.edu/events'
    This view is the home of all event content and features a filtered search box.
  • Featured Events - 'YourDomain.edu/events/featured'
    This view displays one large featured event based on sort order and a list of all other featured events.

To add additional links to the events view page, go to Structure > Menus > Banner Block Menu - Events. These links will appear in a black menu bar at the bottom of the events page.

If you need to customize views, please speak with your website administrator or developer.
