Got an event to promote? With LinkFox, you can create a branded event link that not only looks great, but also lets your audience add the event directly to their calendar with one click. No extra steps, no friction — just 📆 + 🚀.
Here’s how to do it:
🔹 Step 1: Access the Event Links Tool
- Log into your LinkFox dashboard at linkfox.us
- In the left-hand sidebar, click Event Links
You’ll be taken to the page where all your event links live.
🔹 Step 2: Set Up Your Event Link
➕ Click + Create New Link
Start building your event!
🏷️ Choose Domain and Path
- Pick a domain – Choose from the LinkFox default or your custom domain (if available)
- Create your path – Use a short, clean slug (e.g., tech2024) (You can edit this later if needed)
📝 Customize Your Event Info
- Short URL – Optional, or auto-generate
- Event Name – e.g., "Tech Conference 2024"
- Location – Physical or virtual
- Event URL – Link to full event page or ticketing site
- Notes – Add any extra details (agenda, guest info, etc.)
🕒 Set the Date and Time
- Start Time → Pick a date + time
- End Time → When the event wraps
- Timezone → Select your preferred zone
🔔 Schedule Reminders
- First Reminder → Great for 1-week out
- Second Reminder → Closer to the event (like 1-day or 1-hour out)
🔹 Step 3: Link Options (Optional But Powerful)
📊 Tracking & Pixels
- Add tracking pixels (Facebook, Google, TikTok, etc.) to monitor engagement
⏳ Temporary URL Settings
- Active Period – Choose when this link is valid
- Click Limit – Limit the number of uses (optional)
- Expiration URL – Redirect expired links to a fallback page
🔹 Step 4: Add Security & Advanced Features
🔐 Protection Options
- Password Protection – Add a password for access
- Sensitive Content Warning – Alert users before entry (useful for mature content)
⚙️ Advanced Features
- Assign to a Project – Stay organized
- Splash Page – Show a welcome screen or disclaimer before users access the link
🔹 Step 5: Finalize & Activate
- Review all your settings
- Click Update to save and activate your branded event link
🎉 Your link is now live and ready to share!
🔹 Step 6: Share and Manage Your Link
📋 Manage Your Events
Head back to the Event Links tab to:
- Edit
- Deactivate
- Delete
📢 Share Your Link
Post your link anywhere:
- SMS
- Instagram bio
- QR codes
- Anywhere you connect with your audience
🔁 How It Works
When users click your event link, they'll be prompted to add the event directly to their calendar (Google, Apple, Outlook, etc.) — all the event info is auto-filled. No downloads, no extra steps — just simple, seamless RSVP. ✔️
🚫 Troubleshooting: "This Custom URL Already Exists"
This error means the custom slug you picked (e.g., /event) is already taken by another user.
✅ Fix Options:
- Modify the slug – Try event2024, event-link, or add your brand name
- Use another domain – If you have access to custom domains, switch to a different one
TL;DR
Go to Event Links → + Create New Link → Add details → Save → Share. Your audience can now add your event to their calendar instantly — no fuss, no missed dates. 🗓️🦊
