CCB - Events

Overview

The CCB Events Template uses the Ekklesia events #3 layout and is populated by Community Church Builder. Your CCB events will display on the Event List and Full Calendar views.

Category Filter

Content > Link Lists > "CCB Event Categories"

This link list controls the category filter. The name of each link will be the name of the group type used in CCB and must match the corresponding group type name (see example below). The CCB Group Type can be copied from your CCB admin control panel.

You also need to add the group type ID number to the description field, which is listed here: http://wrcc.monkpreview2.com/_ccb/cache/grouptypes.xml

The featured events are set in the Ekklesia360 events module. Any event that is in our system in the events module and published as featured will display on the "Featured Events" calendar landing page and your homepage.

NOTE - There is a custom field labeled "CCB Event ID". The specific CCB Event ID number must be used in this field and and the event date must match its corresponding CCB event to direct the user to the correct CCB event detail page.

Events Sidebar

The Sidebar Events section can be customized to display the next three upcoming events, or display the next three events for a particular "category".

To display all events, just select the "Sidebar Section - CCB Events" option from the drop down when assigning sections.

To display events from one particular category, follow these steps:

  1.  Select the "Sidebar Section - CCB Events" section in Content > Sections (https://my.ekklesia360.com/17874/Section/edit/738401/)
  2. Click the "Copy Section" button
  3. When the new section opens, remove the "(copy)" from the name and replace it with the name of the category you are filtering by.
  4. In the "CCB Event Category" field, put the slug of the category.
  5. Click the Done button and head over to the page you want the sidebar to appear
  6. Select the newly created section from the drop down and save the page
