CDE CAD Community Events & Announcements: Engage Your Server
Learn how CDE CAD's community events and announcements system keeps your FiveM server engaged. Priority-based announcements, event calendars, and public-facing showcase features that drive community participation.
Community Events & Announcements in CDE CAD
A thriving FiveM community runs on communication. Players need to know what is happening, when it is happening, and why it matters. CDE CAD's community showcase page solves this with two powerful sections: announcements and upcoming events. Announcements let server leadership broadcast important information with priority-based badges so urgent messages never get buried. The events calendar gives members a visual timeline of upcoming activities - from scheduled RP events to training sessions and community meetings. Together, these tools transform a static community page into a living hub that keeps members engaged and coming back for more.
Announcements with Priority Levels
Pin your most important announcements to ensure they always appear at the top of the list. Whether it is server rules, a welcome message, or ongoing event details, pinned posts stay visible no matter how many new announcements are added below them. This guarantees that critical information is the first thing members see when they visit your community page.
Upcoming Events Calendar
The events calendar displays upcoming community events with date, time, and description in a clean visual format. The date picker style layout shows month and day prominently, making it easy to scan for upcoming activities at a glance. Event snippets give members a preview of what each event involves without cluttering the page. Here are the types of events that work best:
Public-Facing Engagement
Announcements and events are displayed on the public community showcase page - meaning anyone can see what is happening in your community without needing to log in or join your Discord. This visibility is a powerful recruitment tool. When a potential member lands on your showcase page and sees active announcements, a packed event calendar, and a well-organized community, they know your server is worth their time. Here is why public visibility matters:
Combined with Other Showcase Features
When events, announcements, statistics, departments, businesses, and server status all live on one page, your community showcase becomes the single source of truth for everything happening in your server. Members bookmark it. Recruits share it. Leadership references it. This is the difference between a server that communicates well and one that leaves members guessing.
