Event Series can be used to display and group any combination of single and recurring events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Series differs from recurring events because, with recurring events, all events must contain the same event title, description, venue, and organizer. With recurring events, all events are generated simultaneously, containing all of the same information except for the date and time of the event. On the other hand, Series offers the flexibility to group events with different meta information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, you may find the Series option useful if you have the same event occurring across multiple venues. You could create individual events with different venues and link them together with Series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are three ways to create a Series:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>From the WordPress dashboard<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>From the event editor<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>By creating a recurring event<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-creating-a-series-from-the-dashboard\">Creating a Series from the dashboard<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ll see a new menu item, <strong>Series,<\/strong> under <strong>Events<\/strong> in the WordPress Dashboard:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.theeventscalendar.com\/kb\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-10-at-7.19.10-AM.png\" alt=\"Events Series in the WordPress Dashboard\" class=\"wp-image-1952772\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On the Series page, click on Add New to create a new Series from scratch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.theeventscalendar.com\/kb\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-10-at-10.51.24-AM.png\" alt=\"Add new series\" class=\"wp-image-1952774\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you can begin to build your Series. You can add a title and description and select the events to add. It&#8217;s important to note that you cannot create events on the Series page, so you&#8217;ll want to <a href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/knowledgebase\/k\/creating-an-event\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">create your events<\/a> ahead of time, as you normally do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.theeventscalendar.com\/kb\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-10-at-10.53.14-AM.png\" alt=\"Series page on the backend\" class=\"wp-image-1952775\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you publish your Series, your events will appear under the Events in this Series section. You can always return to this page to edit and manage your Series. On the frontend, you&#8217;ll see something like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.theeventscalendar.com\/kb\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-10-at-10.53.56-AM.png\" alt=\"Event series on the frontend\" class=\"wp-image-1952776\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-create-a-series-from-the-event-editor\">Create a Series from the event editor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever you&#8217;re creating an event, you have the option to add it to an existing Series. You can also create a new Series right from the event editor. In both the block and classic editors, you&#8217;ll find the Series dropdown in the sidebar:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.theeventscalendar.com\/kb\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Create-find-Series-1024x559.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1953732\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>When you create a Series from the event editor, you can only assign a title. However, once you save the event and the Series is generated, you can edit it to add a description or make other changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-automatically-generated-series\">Automatically generated Series<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Recurring events are always part of a Series. If you create a recurring event and don&#8217;t assign it to a Series, then a Series will be automatically generated when you save the event. Generated Series will have the same name as the recurring event. You can edit the Series by going to <strong>Events &gt; Series<\/strong> or clicking the link in the event editor.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.theeventscalendar.com\/kb\/uploads\/2022\/07\/edit-series-link.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1953734\" style=\"width:351px;height:185px\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-removing-events-from-a-series\">Removing events from a Series<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To remove events from a Series, first, visit the Series page that you&#8217;d like to edit.

So, to remove a single event from the series, you&#8217;ll want to navigate to the event from the events list screen and edit it. From there, you can remove the event from the series by taking out the series that it is currently associated to (screenshot below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"542\" src=\"https:\/\/images.theeventscalendar.com\/kb\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-1024x542.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1963973\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.theeventscalendar.com\/kb\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-1024x542.png 1024w, https:\/\/images.theeventscalendar.com\/kb\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-300x159.png 300w, https:\/\/images.theeventscalendar.com\/kb\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-768x407.png 768w, https:\/\/images.theeventscalendar.com\/kb\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-1536x813.png 1536w, https:\/\/images.theeventscalendar.com\/kb\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image.png 1756w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Series Passes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/evnt.is\/spkb\">Series Passes<\/a> is an exciting new feature that enables you to sell a pass that grants attendees access to all events in a Series.
