How to delete and copy an event

Updated yesterday

Copying an Event

  1. Select the event you'd like to copy. From the left hand side menu, select Overview.

  2. In the Actions drop down menu in top right, select copy event.

When copying an event, most aspects of the original event are carried over, but you’ll still have control over key details like the title, timezone, address (if in person), and start date. The end date is automatically configured based on the agenda once you set the start date, but all dates and event settings can be fully customized after the copy is created.

Does get copied over:

  • General info (title, description, cover images)

  • Tags

  • Editor permissions

  • Agenda

  • Stage settings

  • Speakers

  • Slides

  • Registration form

  • Roundtables

  • 1:1 event matching

  • Notifications

  • SEO settings

  • Channels

  • Sponsors

Does not get copied over:

  • Promo codes

  • Ticket types

  • Attendees

  • Photos

  • Event URL

Change Event Type

This feature is currently in the beta testing phase and needs to be enabled by the Gradual Team for communities. Reach out to [email protected] for more information.

Change event types after an event has already been created. Event type can only be changed once, and it cannot be changed after the event has started.

  1. Select the event you'd like to change the event type for. Then from the left hand side menu, select Overview.

  2. In the Actions drop down menu in top right, select Change Event Type.

  3. Type 'Agree' to move forward with changing the event type.

  • Meetings can be changed to a Livestream or Webinar.

  • Webinars can be changed to a Meeting or Livestream.

  • Livestreams can be changed to a Meeting, Webinar, or Hybrid Event.

  • In-person Events can be changed to a Hybrid Event.

  • Hybrid Events can be changed to an In-person Event or Livestream.

Note: Ticket availability is limited by event type. For example, webinars allow a maximum of 350 tickets, so if you’re converting an event to a webinar you’ll need to adjust the ticket quota to 350.

Delete an Event

  1. Select the event you'd like to delete. From the left hand side menu, select Overview.

  2. In the Actions drop down menu in top right, select Delete.

  3. Enter delete in the pop up box to confirm your action.

Note: Deleting the event will remove all instances of the event including registrations, calendar invites, and analytics associated with the event. Any attendees registered for this event will be automatically unregistered.

Note: Unpublishing or unlisting an event will remove it from the front end of your community, and remove it from search results but not delete the data, registrants, etc. from the dashboard.
