Event admins
Give co-organizers access to a specific event's dashboard, and understand the difference between organization admins and event admins.
Two levels of admin#
| Organization admin | Event admin | |
|---|---|---|
| Where set | Sidebar → Members → Admins tab (Add Admins / invitation link) | Event → Setting → Permission & Visibility → Admins |
| Can do | Everything in the organization: create events and teams, change settings, Stripe, members | Manage that event: settings, members, approvals, payments, check-in, notices |
| Shown publicly | On the organization page | Under Hosted by on the event page (avatar and name) |
Only people who are already organization admins appear in the event's Admins picker – add them to the organization first (Admins and roles).
Add or remove an event admin#
- Open the event → Setting tab.
- In Permission & Visibility, click the Admins field and tick the names to add. Click the × on a tag to remove someone.
- Click Update.
The person who creates the event is an admin automatically. Admins' avatars are shown on the event card and in the Information tab.
What event admins see#
Admins of the event can open it from their own Home page (in the organization's Events list) and use every tab. Someone who is not an admin of that event sees "You do not have access to this event" when opening its link.
Check-in staff#
Confirming a check-in (by scanning a member's QR code or from the member card) is limited to people with permission to manage the event. To let a helper do it on the day, add them as an event admin (they need a The Ground account and to be an organization admin). Otherwise they will see "You do not have permission to manage check-in for this event". See Check-in.
