Editing, Duplicating, and Deleting an Event

All event editing, duplication, and deletion takes place from the Event List at Administer Site > Modules > Calendar.

Editing an Event

You can edit any event at any time — including its status, dates, times, location, and description.

1. Find the event in the list and click its name to open the edit form.
2. Make your changes.
3. Click Save.

Approving a Pending Event

If a resident posted an event and your settings require admin approval, the event appears in the list with a Pending status badge.

1. Filter the Event List by Pending using the Event Status dropdown.
2. Click the event name to open it.
3. Change the Status field to Active.
4. Click Save.

The event is now live on the public calendar.

Disabling an Event

If you need to temporarily hide an event without deleting it:

1. Open the event for editing.
2. Change the Status field to Disabled.
3. Click Save.

The event remains in your admin Event List but is no longer visible on the public calendar. Change the status back to Active at any time to re-publish it.

Duplicating an Event

Duplicating creates a new copy of an existing event pre-filled with all the same details. This is useful when you are creating similar events — for example, a second community meeting with the same location but a different date.

1. Find the event you want to copy in the Event List.
2. Click the Copy icon (the two overlapping squares) in the Copy column on the right side of the row.
3. The Add Event form opens with all fields pre-filled from the original. The Event Name has " (copy)" appended to it automatically.
4. Update any fields that need to change — at minimum, update the name and the event dates.
5. Click Save.

The copy is saved as a new, independent event. Changes to the copy do not affect the original.

Deleting an Event

Deleting an event permanently removes it from the calendar. This action cannot be undone.

Deleting from the Event List

1. Find the event in the list.
2. Click the Delete icon (red trash can) in the Delete column.
3. A confirmation dialog asks you to confirm. Click OK to permanently delete the event, or Cancel to go back.

Deleting from the Edit Form

1. Open the event for editing by clicking its name.
2. Scroll to the bottom of the form.
3. Click the red Delete button.
4. A confirmation dialog asks you to confirm. Click OK to permanently delete the event.
