This session will present a case study on how we brought together a range of Joomla features and extensions to create a fully integrated event management workflow.

At Rutgers’ School of Arts and Sciences, we needed a system that allowed any user with a valid Rutgers email address to submit an event. Submissions would then be reviewed and approved by the event management team before being published. Once approved, the original submitter would no longer be able to edit the event, ensuring content integrity.

Clear communication between event creators and the event management team was essential throughout the process. We also wanted events to be displayed with a side filtering system to improve usability and navigation. Finally, the system integrates with our mailing platform to generate and send a weekly newsletter featuring approved events.

    To be honest, I’ve never been to a Joomla World Conference before. I have been to local Joomla events, both in the Netherlands and Germany. You always leave with more knowledge than you came in with. But for me, that is not the most important thing (anymore). It’s the people. Meeting friends you’ve only seen online, making new connections… that’s why I’m really looking forward to this conference.
