View source for EventNett locations and areas

The '''Locations''' view on the main page allows you to search through and manage [[EventNett event views|locations/venues]] and areas within EventNett. Locations are simply a place where an event occurs (e.g. ''Joe's Diner'' or ''The Civic Center''). EventNett '''areas''' are a group of one or more addresses that represent a neighborhood or community. Area names must be single words with no punctuation or spaces (e.g. ''Midtown'' or ''CentralPark'').

The Locations view has a Locations tab that lists locations and an Area tab that lists areas. The contents of both tabs are based on the current [[EventNett search panel|search criteria]].

You can manage areas in two places in EventNett. First, when you edit a location, you can specify one or more areas in the area field located immediately below the address fields. You can also edit areas within the Areas tab. There, you can add, edit, or delete areas. Areas are useful primarily when searching for events. The area can be specified in combination with a city, state, or zip code in the search criteria. When used in a search, an area must precede the address information and be separated with a semicolon. The followin formats can be used:

* <code>[area;] city, state [zip]</code>
* <code>[area;] city</code>
* <code>[area;] state</code>
* <code>[area;] zip</code>

Examples of valid area searches are ''<code>Midtown; Atlanta</code>'' and ''<code>CabbageTown; GA</code>''.
