The Portal's Event Calendar shows MinistryPlatform Events that have been approved for online visibility (a SPoC can customize the Event Approval workflow process, which allows for online visibility).

On the Event Calendar page, you can search for Events by Month, Year, Congregation, Ministry Area, Sign-up Type (i.e., All Events, All Registration Events, All Volunteer Opportunities) and whether an Event is featured. The results can display in a calendar or list view.

You can pre-filter the Event Calendar URL so specific search criteria are auto-filled when someone clicks the link.

Once an Event is clicked, an Event Detail page provides more information on the Event and, if registration is available for the Event, an option to sign up.

Search engines do not return data on the Event Calendar, as there are no tags or meta data.
