If you change the venue after attendees have registered, make sure they are notified. ## Update the Organizer Open: **Organizer** Choose the organizer associated with the event. Organizers can be reused across multiple events. If the correct organizer does not exist yet, create one from: **Eventixa → Organizers** ## Manage Speakers and Sessions Open: **Speakers & Sessions** Use this section to update event participants and agenda content. Depending on the event, you can: - Add speakers - Add performers - Reorder participants - Add sessions - Update session details - Adjust the event agenda For detailed setup, use the dedicated Speakers & Performers and Sessions documentation. ## Manage Recurring Events > **Requires:** Eventixa Pro Open: **Recurring Events** Use this section to configure or update recurrence behavior.

For complete details, see **Duplicating an Event**. ## Event Status The Events screen can display status information such as: - Upcoming - Ongoing - Past - Published - Recurring This helps you quickly understand the current state of each event. ## Before Updating a Live Event If an event already has registrations, review the impact before making major changes.

Edit the event. 2. Save the changes. 3. Review the frontend event page. 4. Check affected tickets or registrations. 5. Notify existing attendees if required. 6. Re-test the event workflow if the change affects checkout or payments. ## Related Documentation Continue with: 1.
