Why don't I see my event on the calendar?
If you submitted an event request and don’t see it on the public calendar, check the following common reasons:
1. The Event Is Still Pending Approval
All room reservations and event requests go through the parish approval workflow before appearing on the main calendar.
How to Check Pending Status:
- Go to Calendar > My Events (
/calendar/myevents). - Click the Filters button at the top right of the table.
- Under Event Status, select All Pending Events.
- Your request will be listed with its current approval stage (e.g., Waiting on Ministry Leader or Waiting on Calendar Admin).
2. The Event Was Declined
If an administrator declined your request (due to a room conflict, holiday closure, etc.):
- Check your email for a decline notice containing the administrator’s notes.
- In Calendar > My Events, set the status filter to Declined Events to view the reason.
3. Check Active Calendar Filters
On the main Parish Calendar (/calendar), check if you have filtered the view by specific ministries, buildings, or rooms that exclude your event. Click Reset Filters to show all events.
