VIDEO: Adding an admin to a Facebook event
What is a Facebook event and what is it for?
- An event at Facebook is not an event in itself, but the announcement of an upcoming event.
- If you create an event on Facebook, you usually provide information such as the name, the occasion, the time and the location of the upcoming real event.
- You can also invite people who will then be notified and from whom information about participation is requested. In the case of a private event, however, invitations can only be sent friends be shipped. For an event that is created as part of a group, the default setting is to invite all group members.
- Particularly noteworthy in this context is the possibility of the privacy to be able to adjust. At every event you should make sure that the information is only made available to the people you would like to have there. In the case of small events, this means that you should only make them visible to invited people and leave the invitation to yourself under "Further options". In the worst case scenario, as has often happened, hundreds or even thousands of uninvited people appear because an event was publicly visible.
How can I add another administrator?
If you have now created such an event, you will automatically be entered as an organizer. This means that you also have administrative rights, i.e. you can edit information, invite people or cancel the entire event. However, depending on the type and size of the event, you may not be the only organizer or have more helpers to help you. But how can you add them as administrators? It's easier than you think!
