How to duplicate events?

SecretChocolate — Mon, 16 May 2016 19:17:03 GMT

With some exceptions, we like the new Event section of the online store. We need a way to duplicate events though. We have the same events running each month (different times/locations but same details.) However, the Event locks down its dates after the event passes so we can no longer bump one event forward in time.

Is there something I'm missing in duplicating events?

If I'm not missing something please add it to a list of to-dos. Very helpful and time saving for us.

Hey @SecretChocolate, thanks for flagging. You're not missing anything — at this time the option to duplicate an event isn't built into the dashboard.

For now, I'd suggest saving your event details in a CSV, then using our item import tool to quickly re-create it as needed. Find step-by-steps on importing your items online in our Support Center.

I'll be sure to note this with our product liaison team. Hope this helps and keep in touch!

Thanks for the workaround. While it makes me cringe it is valid. Appreciate you kicking up the idea to the team!
