Putting on your event again this year? Just click the “Renew Event” button at the top of your events listing on your event director home screen in order to save time!*
You’ll be able to choose the event you wish to renew from a drop-down menu. You'll then be prompted to enter this year's information. You can also choose whether you want to copy the categories, custom questions, merchandise, event notes, and fee schedule/block pricing. Please note that only Event Directors can renew an event on their account. Additional Users do not have access to renew other event directors' events.
*All event information can be modified. Renewing an event does not lock you into a specific event setup.
What should I look out for when I am renewing an event?
Dates, dates, dates! Incorrect dates can cause mass confusion for your participants. Your event date is already displayed right below the event name on the registration page. Listing the date in multiple places on your registration page can make updates tricky if the event date changes—will you remember all the spots to update?
We commonly see event dates included in multiple places, so be sure to double-check and update them in the following areas when renewing your event:
- Category Name
- Category Group Name
- Event Notes
Additionally, check Custom Questions, Merchandise items, and Online Waivers as they often contain outdated details.
To ensure everything is accurate, we recommend walking through the registration process as if you were a participant. You can do this by navigating to Event Setup > Preview Registration.
Reviewing these areas will get your event registration page off to a great start!
