Localist Integration Tool for Concept3D Maps
When setting up a Localist Events feed, you can match a subset of events to a category in the CMS. Once a connection is set up, you will be able to define what events you want to display at a location. This allows for much more targeted event categories, for example, "Admission Events," or "Student Events."
General settings include:
-
Whether or not to display virtual events
-
Set a max number of events
-
Date range the event must occur in
-
Option to choose the category or subcategory the feed will go to
-
It is possible to make multiple connections, and each individual connection can link to an individual category or subcategory
You'll also be able to utilize Localist Filter categories on your Interactive Map such as:
-
Groups
-
Departments
-
Event Type
-
Target Audience
