How Pet Event Planners update their events

Create drafts, edit live Partner Events, submit for review, and keep Pet Parents in the loop — step by step.

For Pet Event Planners & Managers

Step 1: Sign in and open the Pet Event Manager (`/partners/dashboard/community/events`).
Step 2: Find your event under Your Events — then tap Manage Event (or Edit in the ⋮ menu).
Step 3: Update Basics — event name, short description, and hero image (autosaves as you type).
Step 4: Update Date & Location — start date, start/end time, venue, and address.
Step 5: Update Details — categories, free vs ticketed, pet-friendly flags, and full description.
Step 6: Preview the SitGuru card, then Publish Event / submit for review if still a draft.
Step 7: Use Share / Promotion Center for social posts, QR, and flyers — Cancel from the ⋮ menu if needed.

• Partner Events always keep top visual priority on Community, the homepage banner, and the event list.
• Published edits update Pet Parents quickly — double-check county/city so map search stays correct.
• Need a new listing? Create a draft from Pet Events, complete every required field, then Submit for review.
• Host hub: `/events/host` · Apply: `/partners/apply?intent=community_events`.

For Pet Event Planners & Managers

Step 1: Apply or sign in as a Partner if you do not have Partner access yet.
Step 2: Go to `/partners/dashboard/community/events` and choose Create / New draft.
Step 3: Fill Basics → Date & Time → Details in the editor (fields autosave).
Step 4: Preview, then Submit for review.
Step 5: SitGuru reviews the listing — once published it appears as a SitGuru Partner Event on `/community`.

• Use clear titles Pet Parents can scan on mobile (adoption day, meetup, festival, fundraiser).
• Upload a bright event photo — cards and shares look better with a strong image.

Quick answers

Where do I edit an event after it is published?
Partner Dashboard → Pet Events → Edit on that event. Published Partner Events keep SitGuru Partner Event priority on the Pet Events map and lists.
What is the difference between a Partner Event and a Pet Event?
SitGuru Partner Events are created and updated by Pet Event Planners/Managers in the Partner Dashboard. Pet Events (discoveries) fill the broader map — Partner listings always lead visually.
Can Pet Parents RSVP on event cards?
Yes. On Partner Event cards, Attending? offers Yes, Maybe, and No with live counters so planners can gauge interest.
