Poster Message Date
I canceled an event and I lost the entire page that was associated with it... the event description, guest list, graphics, everything. This made it difficult to reschedule the event at a later date because I had to create everything from scratch.

Also, folks who clicked on the event email got an 'event does not exist' message instead of 'event canceled.'

There ought to be a way to retain canceled events with a cancellation message so that the event can be copied and/or rescheduled using all of the same elements.

If this already exists, please make it more obvious somehow!

Hi Jason, you want to cancel an event, but not delete it? It should still be visible and accessible even though it is cancelled? Thu 3/20/08

Yes. I suppose the simple thing is for me to rename the event to 'CANCELED' and close the guest list. But if socializr did this automatically, it would be better.

As I said before, when an event is actually deleted, guests who try to open the invite get an error message instead of a cancellation notice. And the invite format can no longer be reused.

I'm having the exact same problem. I need to access the cancelled event, but it doesn't exist anywhere. Is there anyway to access it? I really need to get to the guest list so I can notify people that the event was cancelled. Here is the original URL
www.socializr.com/event/910768869?privateEventCode=1915990309

Is there anyway you can help me get to this event so I can access the guest list to know who to e-mail.

On a related note an automatic notification to the people who RSVPed REALLY needs to be added to the cancellation feature. How else are people supposed to know an event is cancelled?
