Yes, FURsvp is completely free to use for both event organizers and attendees. There are no hidden fees or premium features.

To create an event, you'll need to be an approved organizer. Once approved, click the "Create Event" button in the navigation bar. Fill out the event details including title, date, location, and any specific requirements. You can also set capacity limits and add custom questions for attendees.

No, you can only post events for the state in which the event is physically located in, in the instance that the state is for the same state as the FURsvp instance. This restriction helps ensure:

• Better local event management
• Compliance with state-specific regulations
• More accurate event information
• Proper verification of event details

Once your event is created, you can manage it from your profile page. You can view RSVPs, send messages to attendees, update event details, and cancel or reschedule if needed. You can also assign assistants to help manage the event.

To assign assistants to your group:

1. Go to your profile
2. Click on the "Manage Assistants" button
3. Use the search field to find users by name or username
4. Click "Add" next to the user you want to assign

Assistants can help you:

• View and manage RSVPs
• Send messages to attendees
• Update event details
• Monitor event capacity

Note: You can remove assistants at any time from the same management page.

Browse the events page to find an event you're interested in. Click on the event to view its details, then click on a status under RSVP. You can choose to RSVP, not attend, or maybe attend. You may need to answer some questions or provide additional information depending on the event requirements.

Yes, you can cancel your RSVP at any time before the event. Go to your profile page, find the event in your RSVPs, and click the "Cancel RSVP" button. It's courteous to cancel as soon as possible if you know you can't attend.

You'll receive notifications for any changes to events you've RSVP'd to, including updates to the time, location, or if the event is canceled. Make sure your notification settings are enabled in your profile.
