Copying participants from another event
Running a second event with the same students, such as a spring fun run after a fall one? Copy everyone across instead of adding them again. This is included in the Plus and Premium plans, and the event you're copying into must be on one of them.
How to copy
- Open the new event's Participants page and choose Copy from Event. (When an event has no participants yet, this panel opens by itself.)
- Choose the Event to copy from. Each one shows its date and how many participants it has.
- Choose Copy Participants.
What's copied
- Classes: matched by name. Any the new event doesn't have yet are created, with their images.
- Active participants, with their grade, class and goal. They're the same student records, so each student's history stays together.
- Reward tiers, if the new event's plan includes rewards.
Donations, totals and reward hand-outs aren't copied: the new event starts from $0.
Anyone already in the new event is skipped, so it's safe to copy more than once.
Starting a new school year? Copying is meant for events in the same school year. Across years, students change grade and class, so after copying, update each student's grade and class, or add the new year's roster with Bulk Add.
