  </Step>
  <Step title="Click on **Update** to save your changes. That's it. Your event type should now be a secret, and will not show up on your public page." />
</Steps>

    Alternatively, as of V2.0 you can simply visit the **`/event-type`** where the list of all your event types shows up, and simply click on the toggle as shown in the image below to confirm if you wish them to show up on your public page. Please note that when this toggle is enabled, it means that the event type **will** show up in your public page and to hide them, they need to be **toggled off**
