EventSale: start here

EventSale helps you run a Second Life shopping event: accept designers, collect the fee for each round, review their product images, and publish a gallery. The owner manages the event in a web dashboard. Designers use a separate creator portal.

Setting up your first event? Follow the first-event checklist in order. You do not need to write code or edit the supplied scripts.

You are…	Start here
The event owner	Activate EventSale, then install the Second Life objects.
A member of the event's staff	Accept your workspace team invitation, then use Applications and Submissions.
A designer joining an event	Use that event's application page. You do not need to buy or activate EventSale.
A designer's assistant	Accept the designer's manager invitation. This grants access to that designer, according to your roles.

Understand the workflow

1. Application: a designer asks to join your event. You approve, reject, or suspend that relationship.
2. Round: one edition of the event, with its own dates and participation fee.
3. Submission: the designer's products, images, categories, and notes for one round. Application approval does not approve every future submission.
4. Payment: the designer pays the round's fee at your Second Life terminal. The web dashboard records the receipt.
5. Gallery: the approved round content is prepared and published for visitors. Publishing a gallery and publishing to Facebook are separate actions.

The enrollment window, payment window, and event period have separate dates. Schedule inputs labeled SLT use Second Life time, including its seasonal clock changes. The creator Submission page has a known time-display difference. Check the clock shown in the dashboard rather than converting from your computer's local time by guesswork.
