# Events

The **Event Dashboard** is the first page you see when you open the [Dashboard](/event-dashboard/) - it lists all your events and is the jumping-off point for managing each one.

#### Each Event Row

Every event shows, from left to right:

- **Publish status** - Publish, Pending or Expired, colour-coded. *Click it to change the status* - a popup lets you Publish an event, set it back to Pending, or Expire it early
- **Event name** - click to view the event page
- **Tickets** - how many tickets have been sold; click to go to the [Attendees](/docs/event-attendees/) page, or hover to see a per-ticket-type breakdown of Sold and Available
- **Waitlist** - how many people are on the [waiting list](/docs/event-waitlist/)
- **Action buttons** - Edit, Mark cancelled (or Mark not cancelled), Duplicate and Delete
- **Actions dropdown** - quick links to View Orders, View Attendees, View Waitlist, Email Attendees and Checkin Attendees for that event

Underneath each event is its thumbnail, the start and end date/time, a second status, and the location. The second status tells you about ticket sales rather than publishing:

- **Active** - tickets on sale
- **Full** - sold out (shows *Full (Waitlist ON)* if a waitlist is enabled)
- **Cancelled** - you've marked it cancelled
- **Paused** - ticket sales are paused because your credit balance is negative
- **(Hidden)** - a hidden/fundraiser event that doesn't appear in listings

A **padlock icon** means the event is password-protected. Rows are colour-coded too: **red** for cancelled events, and **pale blue with a "Credit FREE event" badge** for free events that don't cost you credits.

#### Finding and Sorting Events

Click the **filter icon** at the top right to open the filter bar:

- **Keywords** - search event names
- **Order by** - sort the list, eg by date or title
- **Filter** / **Reset** - apply or clear the filters
- **Save** - remembers your filter and sort choices so the list looks the same next time you visit

The **Hide/Show Expired Events** button next to it toggles whether past events appear in the list - handy once you have a lot of old events.

#### Adding an Event

The **+** button at the top right takes you to the event editor to [create a new event](/docs/create-an-event/).

#### Events Shared With You

If another organiser has added your email to their event's **Administrator Emails**, their events appear at the top of your list under *"Admin Events you have been given access to"*, before your own events. You can view their orders and attendees, but you can't edit or delete the event itself.

#### Cancelling, Duplicating and Deleting

**Mark cancelled** flags the event as cancelled - the row turns red and the event shows Cancelled. **Duplicate** copies the event so you can run it again without starting from scratch. **Delete** removes it entirely.
