Duplicate Events in Community Events

[Donna]

How would an option to duplicate events be added to the front end for community events? I found a plugin to allow it on the admin side, but it still doesn’t make the option available on the front end.

Hey Donna,

Thanks for reaching out to us. I’m not quite sure what you mean by “an option to duplicate events” here – do you literally mean that, upon submission from the community events form, you would like two copies of the same event to be made on your WordPress site?

If so, then this is not default functionality and would require either code customizations or a plugin – you said you’re already using a plugin, but if it’s not working as you hope, we unfortunately do not support third-party plugins here. I would recommend contacting support for that plugin and/or researching how to ensure that, with that plugin, the tribe_events post type is duplicated upon post creation.

Let me know if any of this helps – if not, elaborate a bit on exactly what you’re hoping to accomplish here.

Thank you!
George

Neither I’m looking for a way to add duplicate to the edit options here https://www.evernote.com/l/AYESCnvM8t5LX40vJsBk_nxwbeLwnPoRLJUB/image.png
So if someone has an event tomorrow and the same even will happen again in 10 days they can copy the even and just change the date. It’s not a recurring event because it doesn’t happen the same number of days, so it doesn’t follow a recurring pattern.
I found a plugin that will add the duplicate option to the back end, but it doesn’t add it to the front for community.

Hey Donna,

Thanks for elaborating on your request here. Unfortunately, achieving this will require writing custom code beyond the scope of the support we can provide here in the forums.

We do keep a list of good freelance developers if you’re interested in hiring someone – if so, shoot us an email at [email protected] and we can share the list.

Sorry to disappoint! Let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Cheers,
George
