Find your way around the organizer console

Signing in as an organizer lands you on Overview. The card at the top names your neighborhood and your role, with View public page (what residents see), Manage team, Slideshows, and Reserve a facility once you have reservable locations. Under it, Resources holds your team's organizer-only links. The narrow column on the left keeps score: This Month, your Budget when one is running, Action Needed, and Recent Activity. The wider column lists your upcoming and draft Events, Contests, and Clubs, each with a Manage button, plus New event and New contest buttons that start from a template.

The sidebar is grouped the way you work. First come the working pages, in roughly the order you'll reach for them: Overview, Events, Calendar, Contests (when contests are turned on for your neighborhood), Registrants, Volunteers, Clubs, Vendors, Sponsors, Financial, Reports, and Surveys. Then Library, the reusable pieces you build once and use on many events: Locations, Templates, Slideshows, Themes, Activities, Waivers, Inventory, Photo Galleries, and Resources. Last is Settings: Neighborhood, Team, and Subscription. Small badges flag things waiting on you: a count on Clubs for open petitions, affiliation requests, and overdue club reports, a count on Vendors and Sponsors for partner applications, and an amber dot on Financial until payouts are connected.

If you organize several neighborhoods, the console shows one at a time, and every page, list, and setting belongs to whichever one is current. To change it, click the neighborhood name next to the NeighborlyEvents logo in the header and pick another under Switch neighborhood, or use the Managing group at the top of the sidebar, where each other neighborhood has a Switch link. The sidebar version is the one to use on a phone. Your choice holds until you switch again or sign out.

Click your name at the top right. Account Settings is where you change your own name, sign-in, and notification preferences. Help Center and Organizer guides open the help pages in a new tab, so you can follow along without losing your place. If you also hold another role, such as treasurer of a neighborhood or manager of a vendor or sponsor profile, its link is listed here too. Sign out is at the bottom.

The round button at the bottom right of every console page opens help. When the AI assistant is turned on for your neighborhood and included in your plan, it opens on the Assistant tab, where you can ask how to do something or have it look things up for you; on an event's page it already knows which event you mean. The NeighborlyEvents team switches the assistant on for each neighborhood, so if you'd like it and it isn't there yet, email [email protected]. The Support tab sends a message straight to the NeighborlyEvents team: write what you need under How can we help?, choose whether you'd like a reply by Email or a Phone call (add your phone number in Account Settings to enable calls), and press Send to Support. Your team's organizer-only resource links are listed above the form too.
