Cloning an existing calendar event

Many times there are events that have the same specifications across the board, with the exception of the date and/or time. This is when cloning an event can be useful.
  1. Find the event you wish to clone in the Calendar Events module of your Tendenci-integrated site.
  2. Click on the event. The page you are taken to should be the "view" page of the event, which should have a web address ending in "/en/cev/?[number of event here]".
  3. As an administrator on the site, you will see an icon row above the title of the event on the right side of the page. The second-to-last icon looks like a box with 3 smaller, different-colored boxes within it. This icon is the Reports Console. Click on it.
  4. The Reports Console page has many mini-screenshots of what each function includes. The first option in the third row, letter G, is Clone This Event. You have the option to clone the event 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, or 1 year from the original event date. If you click on the image, it will automatically set the date to exactly one month from the original event date.
  5. Once you have chosen how far along you want to clone your event, make sure you click on one of the links provided, and this will automatically set the date of the cloned event for you.
  6. Review the information in each field to make sure the event will appear as you wish it to, and submit the event.
