Starting over. Wish to copy questions over from previous event.

Long story short I simply want to save the questions, question groups, etc from an event and move them over to a fresh install of EE on the same domain.

The current install is beyond repair at this point. I’ve tried everything and posted before, the issue has to do with the size of one of my past events. When loading the event in question in WPADMIN I get the error: “The maximum number of inputs on this page has been exceeded. You cannot add anymore items (i.e tickets, dateimes, custom fields) on this page because of your servers php “max_input_vars setting. There are 1258 inputs and the maximum amount currently allowed by your server is 1000.”

I don’t need registrations, I simply want the registration form or at least the questions I’ve built. From what I’ve read there’s no way to export the event so I’ll take what I can get. Is there a solution or am I going to have to build everything all over again?

Hi there,

The way forward will be to set the max input vars setting on your server to at allow at least 1500 inputs. If you ask your host they should be able to raise the limit for you. If you start with a fresh installation of Event Espresso you’ll lose the questions and question groups, and you’ll likely run into the same issue again with the maximum inputs limit.
