How do you create an Events' List in SharePoint?

Question

I am trying to populate the Events part, i.e., calendar, on my SharePoint site. According to the information I've been able to find, I need to connect to an Events' page but can't find any instructions on how to create one.

Answer 1

I changed the date range, but I'm not sure what you mean by creating new events. That's what I've been asking all along: How do I create an Events list that these events can be pulled from?

Answer 2

Dear MG,

You can add the event by accessing directly the Calendar List or clicking on Add Event in the webpart, see the highlighted section in the below image:

Answer 3

Thank you for your reply.

I know how to add a single event. What I am trying to do is AUTOMATE the process, so that the events populate automatically. I thought there was a way to set up the events web part to pull data from a particular place, i.e., a page, and that's what I need directions to do. I tried linking the events web part to a page, but it wouldn't pull the events properly.

Answer 4

Dear MG,

The events in the webpart are displayed automatically based on the settings applied in the Events webpart:

You can try to use the Select data range and see whether the events created in the past and future in the Calendar list is showing up.

Thanks,
Mia

Answer 5

I've already done everything you've suggested, and it's still not picking up on the events. I am still asking HOW to create a page that I connect to the event web page, so that it properly pulls the content into the event web part. Is there a way to have a live session with someone since this form of communication doesn't seem to be working?
