What Are Saved Places?
Saved places are reusable location records that you can quickly attach to any event. If your organization regularly hosts events at the same venues (a partner pet store, a community center, your own facility), saving those locations means you won't have to type the address every time you create an event.
Creating a Saved Place
There are two ways to add a saved place:
From the Event Dialog
- Open the event creation or editing dialog
- In the location section, click Add New
- Enter the address details
- Click Save as Location
- In the place dialog that appears, enter a name for the location (e.g. "PetSmart on Main St")
- Confirm by clicking Add Place
From the Place Dropdown
- Open any event dialog
- Click the location dropdown
- If you have no saved places, click the Add First Place button that appears
- Fill in the name and address fields
- Click Add Place
Using a Saved Place on an Event
- Open the event creation or editing dialog
- Click the location dropdown
- Select a saved place from the list
- The address, city, state, and zip will be filled in automatically
- A preview card showing the full address appears below the dropdown
Editing a Saved Place
- Open an event dialog and select the saved place you want to update
- Click the pencil icon next to the dropdown
- Update the name, address, city, state, or zip code
- Click Save
Changes to a saved place apply going forward. Events that were already created with the old address will retain the address they were saved with.
Deleting a Saved Place
- Open the place editing dialog (pencil icon next to the dropdown)
- Click the Delete button at the bottom of the dialog
- Confirm the deletion
Deleting a saved place does not remove the location from events that already use it.
Place Fields
- Name (required): a friendly label such as "Community Park Pavilion" or "Downtown PetSmart"
- Address (optional): street address
- City (optional): city name
- State (optional): US state, selected from a dropdown
- Zip Code (optional): postal code
Tips for Managing Saved Places
- Give each place a clear, recognizable name so team members can find it quickly in the dropdown
- Include the full street address so event attendees have everything they need for directions
- If a venue closes or you stop using it, delete the saved place to keep your list tidy
- You can create saved places ahead of time before you start scheduling events
