Entry type

Select the type of entry you want to use for this event. The options available in this field will depend upon the entry types defined in your publication.

Clear author field on submit

By default, the Author field in event entries is persistent: if you set it when you submit an entry, then your choice is remembered and applied to any subsequent entries you add, until you explicitly change it or clear it. Check this option if you would prefer the Author field to be cleared every time an entry is submitted.
