How to: show events on multiple SharePoint websites (e.g. your intranet, company news, etc.)

If you want to show events on multiple SharePoint sites, this article is for you. With our List view or events web part, you can show your event list on multiple SharePoint (and select the view!) throughout all your multiple SharePoint sites. Interested? Read this article to see how you can make sure to share consistent and updated information throughout your sites.

Prerequisites

To use the List View or Events web part on other sites make sure to add the SharePoint|sapiens Modern User Interface app on each of them. For this, go to the Site Contents view of the SharePoint website, click on New and select App.

Search for SharePoint|sapiens Modern User Interface app in the search bar and click on Add

Add the web part throughout your SharePoint sites and on your intranet

Once the SharePoint|sapiens Modern User Interface app is installed, open the page where you want to show the training events, click on the Edit button on the top right hand side.

To add a web part, select the section where you would like it to appear, click on the + and add the web part List view or events (use the search bar if it does not appear in the frequently used).

Configure the web part

Once you added the web part, enter the following information to make sure you show the view:

1) select the source Enter site.

2) enter the URL of your Employee Training Management or Event Management site.

3) choose the list you would like to display.

4) select the view.

5) here you can customize how the view should be displayed (We recommend the Events – Compact view to show events).

6) here you can customize what form/page to open when users click on the event (We recommend Event Details (Customizable) for end users).

7) set the maximum number of items to show. More items can be viewed by click on Next below the last event.

8) select Display a search box if you would like users to be able to search for events.

9) it is also possible to use audience targeting in combination (to learn more on using target audience, check our article How to: Promote events to specific target audiences))
