2. In the **Events** backend, fill in the following fields:

* The event `name` is required.
* The `URL` is required: The event comes with a default random URL, but you can change it to your preferred URL.
* Event `start time` and `end time` are required.
* `Lecturer`: You can have multiple speakers, whom you can select from the list of lecturers in your academy or add directly.
* `Hosting type`: You can choose between using Teachify's default live streaming software or integrating Zoom to open a Zoom live conference room.

* Choose "Yes" or "No" to `publish` the event  (if you select "No," the event will not be visible on your website).
* You can customize the `ticket` name, price, and quantity (if you don't set it, it will display _"Tickets not yet available"_ on your webstie).
* You can set the `price` to "0" for a free live event.
* You can set the `event category` and `tag list` to manage events better when you have many.

After completing the above steps, you have created the live event page and can share it to allow people to sign up for paid or free attendance. 
Registered attendees can log in to the backend to access the event when the event starts.

It's that simple!
