CHAPTER 15
Working with Events
In Macromedia Breeze, the event application lets users manage the full life cycle of large or small
events, including registration, invitations, reminders, and reporting. Breeze events can be used
with meetings, seminars, presentations, or training.
This chapter provides procedures for creating, modifying, and joining events. It does not address
the file management tasks associated with the Event library. For this information, see “Managing
the Event Library” on page 221. For background information about events, including event
workflow and activities, see “About Events” on page 195.
Creating an event
You create an event in Breeze using the Event wizard, which lets you do everything necessary to
set up your event, including creating a name and summary, selecting an image to associate with
the event, selecting the content, determining participants, and defining the different phases in
your event in which e-mails are sent to participants.
Breeze events are built around content, such as a course or curriculum, a meeting, or a seminar.
This means that the content must already exist in the appropriate library before you create the
event; you cannot create the content when you create the event. You can use any single file or
folder stored in your Content, Meetings, Training, or Seminar library. For information on storing
content in the Content library, see Chapter 3, “Working with Content,” on page 35.
To open the Event wizard:
1. Click the Event Management tab in Breeze Manager.
2. Navigate to the folder where you want to add a new event.
3. Click New Event.
The Enter Event Information page appears. You are now ready to define some basic parameters
for the event. For more information, see “Entering event information” on page 202
