Secure Pages

Portal My Events

  • Allows an authenticated user to view Events they indicated interest in attending or have registered for.
  • Shows events for users who are current participants in a Group which is associated with an event through Event Groups, Rooms & Groups, and Program Groups.
  • A user can confirm or cancel their attendance at the Event. When they click Cancel, the Cancel My Event email is sent to the Event's Primary Contact (a SPoC can edit the email content using the Portal Admin page).
Tip: Your volunteer groups can leverage My Events! For example, when ushers are in a Group associated with your worship services, they can log in to My Events and confirm (or cancel) the weeks they're available.

My Events showing events, their contacts, the role/status, and actions to confirm or cancel

The Contact column displays the Primary Contact for the Event or Group. The My Roles/Status column displays your role or status in the Event or Group.

Initial Setup

A SPoC must place the navigation link to My Events (my_events.aspx) in the appropriate place on your Portal skin. If needed, you can also place the link on your church website.

Event Setup

In order for an Event to show up on a user's My Events page, all of the following must be true:
  • An Event must exist in MinistryPlatform.
  • The user must be in the Participant tab of the Event OR the user must be a current Participant in a Group associated with the Event (either through direct association or through the common Program*).
  • The user must be logged in to My Events.

* To prevent events from displaying through the association through the Program, set Ignore Program Groups on the Event record to Yes.

URL Filters

You can pre-filter the My Events URL so specific search criteria are auto-filled when someone clicks the link. The available filter is Month: ?filter=month:<1-12> (shows a specific month; 0 will show all months).

The filter can be appended to the URL. For example, to see Events for the month of March: my_events.aspx?filter=month:3
