Currently you can only copy an event in the database view. This alone is not a big deal, but the fact that registration forms and their confirmation emails can't be copied with them makes it extremely slow to create a series of duplicate events on different dates.
Additionally, if I have two screens open and am copying over text from my original event to the subsequent events, the formatting and hyperlinks get reset each time I paste in text.
Not all events should have to be built from scratch- I'm certain many users have event series that need to have identical registration, forms, confirmation emails, with just the date changing!
It's very frustrating to have to re-build the same event repeatedly, especially all of the formatting and tweaks. Being able to duplicate all or parts of an event would be extremely helpful.
Yes! I spent over an hour today recreating a form that would have taken less than 5 minutes to tweak if I could have copied it.
Agreed! For complex galas, etc, there are very detailed registration forms and participant options that need to be created to allow different levels of registration and sponsorships. This is extremely time-consuming to set up anew for each event.
