I’ve got a bug for this - when I attempt to add a chat channel to an event in a PM I get an **internal server error**.

While this might be a bit of an edge case, it doesn’t make sense to have the option to create a chat channel where it is going to error out.

May I suggest that:

1. this feature be extended to work with Events in PMs  
_or_

2. that the option does not appear when an Event is created in a PM

The former would provide some resilience if a topic is converted to a PM in future.
