Bug with Duplicating Events – Getting Multiple Events

I am getting multiple events duplicated when I duplicate an event once (one click). I am duplicating a singular event (not recurring) and the function is creating two or more events as a result. Please assist.

Further to this report, if duplicate and then, after duplicate I am taken to the event overview page where I see only one event. If I try to refilter to show all events it still only shows one event. I have to click on the “Event Overview” menu option on the left to reload the event overview then select all to see all my events. I think what is happening is post duplication, if I try to view all or resort events it makes a new event for every time I try to do that. If I just click on the event over view menu option then view all it only creates one event.

“after duplicate I am taken to the event overview page where I see only one event.”

Yes this is the duplicated event. I have already raised a ticket to reconsider the filter shown after duplicating an event as it is confusing to people.

I can confirm that the filters are re-duplicating the events, we have a ticket outstanding to look into this.

In my experience, I am taken to the event overview page showing only the original event, not a duplicate, then I find about four duplicates when I go to the unfiltered event overview page.

Hi dupagechildrens,

Currently if you duplicate an event it will duplicate and display the original one (we have a ticket to change this) if on that screen you try to filter the status/month/category etc it then duplicates the event again (or how ever many times you press the filter button) we have another ticket in place to get this fixed.

A current workaround is to duplicate the event and then from there go straight to Event Overview on the left http://d.pr/i/TqvU and then find your new duplicated event. That should stop multiples being created.
