Duplicate Events

There are many instances where you have an event that happens year over year, month over month, or just enough that you don't want to spend the time to recreate it. 

As an admin of the event, you have the ability to duplicate the event so that all the content and description of the event will transfer over. Even more important, if the event has many shifts with its own descriptions and timeframes, our duplication abilities will transfer over the whole event and its shifts.

New View

Navigate to the event you would like to duplicate. Open the Manage menu on the left side of the screen and select 'Duplicate'

In this workflow, you can make any needed updates to the existing information. You can also choose to duplicate the event to another group in your network and select how custom fields should be duplicated. 

For duplicating custom fields, you have 2 options:

1. Re-use existing fields: This option is useful for viewing responses across multiple forms in one place. If any changes are made, this will affect every form that this question is on.
2. Create copies of each field: This option is useful for making changes to the field without affecting the existing forms that this question is on.

If this is an event with shifts, you will be able to duplicate them if you choose. Note: If you duplicate the shifts, the dates will remain the same as the original event, so make sure you edit the shifts to reflect the new dates for your event.

To duplicate your event, first go to the event dashboard. In your event dashboard, you'll see the option to duplicate your event on the left side of the page.

After duplicating your event, you will have the option to change which group you are duplicating the event to and if you would like to duplicate the existing custom fields.
