How To Create An Event

Content:
  1. Log into YouVersion Connect.
  2. Select Content on the left navigation menu.
  3. Select Events.
  4. Select Create New Event.
  5. Enter the Event name and select Save.
    As you're creating your Event, if you wish to change the name, select the pencil icon in the top left.
  6. Upload an image for your Event. Required dimensions are: 1440px width x 810px height.
  7. Add a short description for your Event to give users an idea of what to expect.
  8. Select Add Content.
    1. Content Types:
      Scripture Reference | Plans | Text | Image | Link | Announcement
  9. Select the + icons to add more content types to your Event.
  10. Once you've added all of your content, select Save.
If you need to remove a section of content, select the trash can icon on the right side.
You can also easily duplicate a section of content by selecting the duplicate icon (underneath the trash can icon). You can also reorder your content modules by dragging and dropping the 6 dots on the left side of your content modules.

Times:

Once you've added the content for your Event, the next step is to set up the time your Event will be live in the app.

  1. Select the Times tab on the top menu.
  2. Select Add an Event Time.
  3. Choose a start date for the Event, time, and duration.
If you're a multi-site church, select whether you want the Event to show on your parent church, or the other locations (or both).

Select Preview & Publish on the top menu to view how your Event will look before it goes live. This will give you a chance to change anything before choosing Publish.

Share:
  1. Once you select Publish, then you will have access to share your Event link.
  2. If a user doesn't have the Bible App downloaded, opening your Event link will prompt them to download in order to view your content.
