Setting Up and Activating Your Event in Curator Live
Efficient event setup and activation are crucial for ensuring a smooth experience on Curator Live. This guide outlines the key steps to help you purchase, configure, and activate your event successfully, including tips for preparing timelines and customization options. Below are the detailed steps:
Step 1: Deciding on Purchase Timing
You can decide on when to purchase your event based on your planning needs:
Before the Event Starts: It is recommended to purchase the event before its start date to ensure everything is set up. This includes configuring necessary details and reviewing content.
After the Event Starts: For certain configurations such as removing filters like black-and-white, you can make changes both before and after making the purchase. This flexibility ensures you can fine-tune your event without being tied to a specific timeline.
Step 2: Choosing a Purchase Option
When purchasing the event, you will need to choose an appropriate payment option. While the platform formerly referred to a basic plan priced at $29, always review the latest available pricing and plans to select the one that best suits your needs.
Step 3: Configuring Event Activation Period
To be fully prepared, consider the following when configuring the activation period:
Include buffer days around your event. For instance, you may want to set the event to start a day earlier and end a day later for testing or last-minute changes.
Utilize customization features like removing filters (e.g., black-and-white mode), which can be done at any time before or after purchasing.
Conclusion
By following these steps, you can smoothly set up and activate your event in Curator Live. From determining the right purchase timing and options to configuring an inclusive activation period, these guidelines will help you optimize your event experience. ✅ What Can Be Edited
