Editing the Event Description
The description of your event is one of the most important portions of content on your event page. It should give the prospective attendee all the information (e.g. who, what, when, where, how) not already provided about date/time, location, etc. from the other sections on the event page.
Of course, additional information can be placed in the description regarding these sections (e.g. agendas with multiple times and locations, what the admission cost gives attendees).
Using the WYSIWYG Editor
The description section needs all the information it can get, so it uses a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor, much like what you use in any word processing software (e.g. Microsoft Word). There are some elements you can use and others that are not functional, per our web template and accessibility guidelines:
Adding Links to the Description
Links provide additional information. Your most important link (e.g. registering) should be used in the Call-to-Action button. If you have a couple links, you can add those in the Related Content. However, too many links over on that side of the event page brings the rest of the content down in an awkward way. The description may be the best place those links.
