Sign in to the organiser dashboard
Sign in and open Organiser dashboard (
/organiser/). If your networking group is already listed, search the organiser directory and claim your page when prompted — use the email address linked to your group. -
Create or update your organiser page
Under Organiser pages, add your public group profile: name, logo, description, contact email, and social links. This is what attendees see when they browse your group and events.
-
Start a new event listing
From My events, choose List event. Pick the organiser page the event belongs to.
Event details — add title, event type (Meeting, Webinar, Workshop, Exhibition, Awards, etc.), description, cover photo, and format:
- In person — venue, address, city, postcode
- Online — platform and join link (you can add the link later; ticket holders are emailed when it’s added)
- Hybrid — both venue and online details
Dates — pick one or multiple dates on the calendar for a series. Same time and venue apply to each selected date. For different times or locations, create separate listings.
-
Set up tickets
Open the ticket step for your event. Choose:
- Standard tickets — open booking with one or more ticket types (free or paid)
- One Seat Only Policy (OSOP) — attendees apply first; you approve or deny; approved applicants get a payment link
Set prices, quantities, VAT treatment if applicable, and your refund policy. You must complete tickets and refund settings before publishing.
-
Connect Stripe for paid tickets
For paid events, complete Connect Stripe under Revenue so ticket money reaches your bank account. Organisers receive the full ticket price; attendees pay a separate booking fee at checkout. Free events do not require Stripe.
-
Publish
When details and tickets are complete, publish the event. New listings may go through a quick approval check. Once Published, Approved, linked to a published organiser page, and has ticket types — it appears on Browse events.
-
Manage bookings after publish
Use the dashboard to:
- Attendees — view registrations, approve applications, export CSV
- Revenue — sales totals and payout status
- Reviews — see attendee feedback after events
- Cancellations — handle refunds if you cancel an event
Event not on browse? Check it is Published (not Draft), Approved, has tickets, and your organiser page is published. Email hello@the-networker.co.uk with the event title if you need help.
