Saved locations let you build a list of frequently used venues. When the list is set up, members see a dropdown on the event form showing those locations — they can pick one or type a new location of their choice.
Getting to Event Locations
- Navigate to Administer Site > Modules > Calendar.
- Click the Settings tab.
- Click the Event Locations inner tab.
Adding a Location
- Click Add a Location (or Add New Location if locations already exist) at the bottom of the table.
- A new row appears. Type the location name in the text field.
- The toggle switch on the left is set to visible by default — leave it on to make the location available in the dropdown.
- Click Save (at the bottom of the form).
Editing a Location Name
- Find the location in the table.
- Click inside the text field in the Location column and update the name.
- Click Save.
Hiding a Location
If you want to remove a location from the dropdown without deleting it:
- Find the location in the table.
- Click the toggle switch in the first column to turn it off.
- Click Save.
The location remains in the list but does not appear in the dropdown when members create events.
Deleting a Location
- Click the red trash can icon on the right side of the location row.
- A confirmation dialog asks you to confirm. Click OK to permanently delete the location.
- Click Save to apply the change.
Warning: Deleting a saved location does not remove it from events that already use it — existing events keep the location text they were saved with. The location is only removed from the saved list for future events.
Note: If no saved locations have been added, or all saved locations are hidden, the Location field on the event form appears as a plain text input instead of a dropdown.
