Answers.Text: thanks artfulrobot, I had already seen this possibility, but it was not clear to me. Now I see that I can activate the registration for an event, but where can I show this event and the possibility to register? ...
  Can I do this, inserting the link that I find at the bottom on created event? This is not automatic? Thank you

Answers.Text: Where you can show the event is a question for your website. CiviCRM provides a link, where you put that link is up to you. You may find the [events documentation](https://docs.civicrm.org/user/en/latest/events/integrating-events-with-your-website/) useful.

  CiviCRM has some public-facing pages that it generates. e.g. event registrations, unsubscribe confirmations etc.
  
  On Wordpress the page you're seeing is the one that's used by CiviCRM for these purposes. So it's not a page you use or link to directly yourself, but it has to exist as far as Wordpress is concerned so that CiviCRM can provide dynamic content.
  
  ## EDIT
  
  Here's an example of when CiviCRM will use this page. You have an event, you want to give people a link to sign up for it.
  
  From the Manage Events page you click (1) event links, then you see (2) test and live event registration links. You right-click the one you want and choose "Copy Link Location" (or whatever similar description your browser offers), and send people the link.
  
  When people click that link CiviCRM will use the base page to decorate its sign up form.
