--- title: Managing hosts slug: managing-hosts docTags: createdAt: 2026-10-01T12:00:00.000Z --- Once you've created a host, its page in the Jambo Dash is where you keep its public profile up to date, see its events at a glance, and post updates for attendees. New to hosts? Start with the **Creating a host** guide. # Your hosts list Click **Hosts & Venues** in the left sidebar to see every host your organization manages. - **Search** by name using the search box. - **Filter** the list with **All**, **Venues** (hosts with an address, where events can be held), or **No address** (hosts like performers, promoters, or brands). - **Switch views** between **List** and **Map**. Hosts with an address have a green **Venue** badge. ## Map view The map shows a pin for each of your hosts that has an address. Click a pin to open that host in a new tab. Hosts without an address can't be placed on the map, so a note below it tells you how many are left off. # The host page Click a host's name to open its page. Here's what you'll find. ## Profile The top of the page shows the host's cover image, name, and the details attendees see: **Address**, **Phone**, and **Description**. If a detail is missing, click the link in its place (like **Add a phone number**) to fill it in. - **View on Jambo** opens the host's public page, where attendees can see all of its upcoming events. - **Share** gives you a link and a QR code for the host's page, handy for social media, flyers, or a sign at the door. ## Events The **Events** panel lists every event at this host, whether it's the host, the venue, or both. Switch between **Upcoming** (soonest first) and **Past** (most recent first). Each event shows its date and time, plus who else is involved: **Hosted by \[host]** when another host puts on an event at your venue, or **At \[venue]** when your host's event takes place somewhere else. Drafts and private events are labeled **Draft** and **Private**. Click an event to open it, or click **New** to create an event with this host already filled in. If the host is a venue, it's filled in as the venue too. ## Event coverage The **Event coverage** panel shows how busy the next four weeks look. Green is three or more events in a week, amber is at least one, and red is an empty week. Use it to spot gaps in your calendar before they happen. ## Host posts Posts let you share updates, like a lineup announcement or a weekly special, on the host's page in the Jambo app. 1. In the **Host Posts** panel, click **New** 2. Choose **Image** to upload a picture, or **Text** to write a short message (up to 170 characters) 3. Click **Create** To remove a post, click the red delete icon on it and confirm. Deleting a post can't be undone. ## Ticket scanners The **Ticket scanners** panel lets you choose who can scan tickets at this host's events. See the **Scanning tickets** guide. # Editing a host 1. Open the host's page and click **Edit**, or choose **Edit** from the actions menu on the **Hosts & Venues** list 2. Update any of the details: - **Address**: search for the place by business name or address. Adding an address makes the host a venue, so events can be held there. - **Name**: what attendees see on your events - **Description**: a short introduction, shown on the host page - **Contact phone number**: visible to attendees for quick questions - **Cover image** 3. Click **Save** To change just the cover image, you can also click **Change image** on the cover at the top of the host page. :::hint{type="info"} Each place can only have one host on Jambo. If you pick an address that already belongs to another host, you'll see **This address already has a host**. Click **View \[host]** to look at it, or **Pick a different address**. ::: # Deleting a host 1. On the **Hosts & Venues** list, open the actions menu next to the host 2. Click **Delete** and confirm Deleting a host removes its page, posts, and ticket scanners. This can't be undone. You can't delete a host that's the host or venue of any events. If you try, you'll see **It still has events**. Click **See its events** to find them, then move or delete those events first. # Hosts managed by someone else You can open the page of any host on Jambo, but you can only edit the ones your organization manages. - **Another organization manages this page:** you can still hold events here by choosing it as the venue, and those events show up on its page. Editing its details and adding ticket scanners are up to whoever manages it. If it should be yours, contact us at [support@jambo.app](mailto\:support@jambo.app). - **Nobody manages this page yet:** if it's your business, click **Claim this page** to start managing it. See the **Creating a host** guide.
