  8. Next, provide the Event Address and include the Google Map Link (for Offline events). You can insert Google Meet links under the event address for online events.

  9. Include additional placeholders and an additional description section for the events. This allows you to add more specific information or details related to the event, enhancing the event's overall content and providing attendees with comprehensive insights.

  10. Next, you have the option to select Speakers from either the community's user pool or external sources. This includes providing their avatar, name, title, and affiliated company. By curating speakers relevant to the event's theme or target audience, whether they are internal community members or external industry experts, you can create richer experiences for attendees.

  11. Click Create in the bottom right corner. Once created, you can edit or delete an event.

    On editing, you can change the language from the top right to translate the event into.
