Hi Milan,

This was the intent because in many cases the event’s posts are desired to not be duplicated. For example if there’s a sewing class that meets twice a month and there’s an event that gets duplicated for each time people sign up for it there would be one post instead of 24 posts for the same class.

If your use case is different there’s a filter were going to release in Event Espresso 3.1.37 that you can use to override this feature.

In the meantime you can change the line in includes/event-management/copy_event.php (line 46) where it says:

'post_id' 	=> $event->post_id,

to

'post_id' 	=> 0,

After you update to Event Espresso 3.1.37.P you’ll be able to use the new filter in a custom function file to override it without changing a core file. Here’s a code snippet that will work for the .37 release:

function override_event_post_id (){
    return 0;
}
add_filter( 'filter_hook_espresso_existing_post_id', 'override_event_post_id' );
