(the Events site) where you have a need for tickets, an auto-translated summary of the event, or wish to send emails to event participants or data capture about their accessibility needs. You would choose route 1.  (Humhub) where you don't need the above features, or you are not a member of a hub or support circle. Route 1: Creating a public event in Humhub Most Spaces in the platform will have a calendar which you can add events to. To add an event click on the day you'd like to add the event. The public events from all of these calendars are aggregated together in the main calendar view This view can be filtered using the checkboxes at the top left. Many spaces will also have the 'external calendar' module. This enables automatically pulling in events from other sites where they publish an ical feed Route 2 a Ticketed event Please see Events Calendar export to Google calendar On the main calendar page in the top right click on the download/export icon.

If you want to do a specific notification (a separate email from the daily digest) then you could 'notify all' in the post. This will create a separate email just for that post. It will also create a push notification/popup to users that have enabled that in their browser or mobile device. Archive Space hosts are able to 'Archive' spaces When spaces are archived: All content is hidden to non-admins. It is no longer searchable (even by members of that space) Admins can 'un-archive' it at a later date and make it visible/ searchable by members. The content remains accessible to admins even when in an archived state. Private organising spaces On Vive we offer groups private organising spaces. By default these are set as Visible as a space  to logged in users in the space menu request to join Default to only members of a space can see the content of a space Admins and moderators can choose to make public posts that are visible to people outside of the space.
