Manage Shows

Category:

Set up a series to generate recurring show instances.

A Series represents a recurring show, e.g. daily or weekly livestream. 


Shows will be generated based on the details and frequency you set up in the series. You can then update individual shows as needed with additional details, like guests or episode titles.


To add a series, select Manage Shows from the member menu (profile icon in top-right).

On the Manage Shows page, click the New Series button.

This will open the Add New Series popup.
