It is unfortunate, but at times, you may find it necessary to postpone an event. You can easily change the date of the event, and keep all attendees registered for the event.

1. Notify registrants that you are postponing the event to a new date. See Send an Email to Multiple Guests.
2. Change the date of the event to the new dates on the event's General tab.

   

3. If you wish to retain the original event on your calendar(but marked as postponed) Add Event > Copy Event:
   • Make a copy of the new event (with new dates). See Copy an Event.
   • Set the dates of the copied event to the original event dates.
   • Add ***Postponed*** to the title and description of the event. You may also wish to add the new dates to the title and description.
   • Ensure that a reminder is not set for the postponed event.
   • Ensure that registration is not enabled for the postponed event.

   

1. Update the title and description of the event with ***Postpone***, on the General tab for the event.
2. Notify all registrants. See Send an Email to Multiple Guests.
3. Disable online registration for the event on the event's Fees tab, by deselecting Allow members to register online for this event and Allow non-members to register online for this event. See Select Registration and Billing Preferences.
4. On the event's General tab, turn off the automated reminder for the event (if applicable).

Once you have decided on a future date, follow the steps described in Postpone an Event when the Future Date is Known to "re-activate" this event. 

NOTE: if you have disabled online registration and the event reminder, be sure to turn those back on for the new event.
