Adding sub-events to an event template

An event template can configured to include sub-events , which are that will be automatically created when an event is created using the main event template. 

To add sub-events to an event template, first create a template for each sub-event that you want to add to the main template, with all of the required fields filled in.

Once all of your sub-event templates are ready, create the main event template, and add the sub-event templates to it using the 'add sub-events' buttonalong with the parent event when the parent event template is used to create a new event. 

Once all of your templates have been created you can create multi-level parent child relationships between them using the sub-events feature. To do this:

  1. Go to “Settings => Event Templates” and choose the top level parent template from the list.
  2.  On the Event Details page, click “Options” and choose “Configure Sub-events”

  4. You can then drag-and-drop the sub-events that have been added to re-order them or create further parent-child relationships between them
    (Hint: click the triangle next to an event template to expand or collapse the levels below)
    (Hint: wait until the little blue arrow Image Added appears next to target template before dropping the dragged template to create a lower level sub-event)Image Added
  5. When finished, click Image Added  and then Image Added to save the sub-event configuration for the template.
