Hello everyone! Hope someone can answer my question. I really don’t like reading long grammar articles with all those rules and exceptions. So, could anyone clarify what is the past tense form for “happen”? Is it “happened” or “happend”?

How to write “happen” in the past tense? Is it happened or happend?

The correct past tense of ''happen'' is ''happened'' 
It happened yesterday.

The correct past tense of "happen" is "happened." 

This follows the standard English rule for forming the past tense of regular verbs by adding "-ed" to the base form of the verb. The spelling "happend" is incorrect because it does not follow this rule.

Happened is the correct version. Remember, though, social media often contains non-standard [incorrect if you wish] spellings of words [either to look trendy or to save space]

Hello. Happened is correct. We add (ed) at the end of regular verbs like happen, talk, watch,.. to change them to simple past. Some verbs end in (e) like (like), so we just as (d): liked. Some verbs end in y, like study, so we omit y and add ied: studied.
