Events on Zuddl can be duplicated — you can have a nearly identical replica to use as a new event.

This can be helpful for cases where you want to create a new event based on an older event or if you want to reuse a canceled event. Duplicated events have most of the event setup intact from the original event, and you can edit them like regular events.

Changes in the duplicated event

Some event settings cannot be copied and must be applied again in the duplicated event. Here are these settings:

Settings	Status	Instructions
Integrations	Not copied	Integrations need to be configured for the duplicated event.
Tickets	Not copied	Ticket tiers and customizations need to be set up again.
Registration page	Copied	Only pages using the Basic or Sponsor template are copied.
Custom fields in the Registration Form	Copied	Custom fields in the form are copied.
People	Not copied	All attendees and speakers need to be invited again.
Access groups	Copied	Ticket-based access groups are not copied; any other access groups are copied.
Schedule	Copied	Any scheduled sessions are copied and rescheduled according to the start time of the duplicated event.
Stage	Not copied	RTMPS live stream settings, and Breakout rooms need to be set up.
Rooms	Copied	Moderators need to be invited and assigned to all copied moderated rooms.
Expo	Copied	Booth owners need to be invited and assigned to all copied expo booths.
Communication	Copied	All emails are copied but are toggled off by default.
