- Create Event modal — Creating an event now opens a proper dialog where you set the event name, URL slug (auto-generated from the name, editable), status (defaults to Draft), and access control level (Public/Unlisted, Password Protected, or Admin Only). The slug shows a live preview of the attendee URL. Duplicate slug names are caught with a clear error message.
