Modifying the event landing page layout

Staff and public users see different landing pages for events:

• Staff users: They see an event-specific console that includes the Showcase, Dashboard, Registrants, and Questions tabs.



• Public users: They see only the event details, such as the title, description, admission options, and program items, along with the registration button.

Staff can modify both the staff view or public view of an event page.
