3. Select the 'New event' button
4. Fill in the details of the new event, in the appropriate fields. The fields will appear like the screenshot below.(If you do not see all these fields, make sure you have selected 'Show more', as some of the fields may be hidden in this section)
   
   1. For the type of event, User events are only visible to the creator, whilst Site events are visible to everyone. Make sure to toggle this to 'Site' if you want all your users to see the event.
   2. The field, 'Repeat weekly, creating altogether' by default this is set to 1, indicating only 1 event will be created at the date you create specify under the section. To create reoccurring events you will first need to select the tickbox 'Repeat this event' to unlock the field.
5. Don't forget to press save when you are done, you can edit the event later by finding it in the calendar and selecting the cog icon next to its name. You can delete an event by selecting the bin icon.
