Hi Linda,

I was wanting to create an online event for my Facebook page, as my country (Denmark) has entered another lockdown. But it simply does not seem to be an option – I can only create “normal” events. On one of the other Facebook pages I am administrating there is no problem creating an online event. Do you have a guess as to what the problem is? Thanks a lot for your help,

Best wishes, Senia (from the organisation, Studerende og Sorg)

  Senia Facebook can be a bit funny like that one page has a feature and the others don’t. I can’t really provide a tip other than to say maybe try using a tool like Eventbrite and adding the event that way
