Repeating Event " going" gets not deleted anymore

Support

Hello,

when users click “going” for a weekly repeated event, normally their votes disappiered right after the event and you could always see the new votes for next week. Now they accumulate to a Long list.
I might have changed some configuration about the visibility of events but I do not find it to reset it.

Any Idea, thank you
Ann

Maybe I need to describe it better:

  • you have a weekly repeated event Monday evening 7-8pm
  • some people have clicked going, interessted or not coming and this is shown by the respective symbol on their listed avatar
  • next Monday at 8:01pm all those symbols are gone, avatars stay listed but greyed out
  • event topic then shows date of the Monday one week later and nobody “going” etc until the first users click again

Now I fiddled around with some visibility setting that the ones attended today are longer visible then 8pm or that the event is not deleted or anything like that…
But now their avatars are never reset and greyed out but all “going” participants are accumulated over weeks and shown as actively “going”
I can’t find the setting to make it the same as before, at 8pm the event is cleared and set to next week without any participants

Any hint where I can revert this?

And yes, I know, document your changes :slight_smile:

Hi Ann — sorry for the delay here, but thanks for reaching out about this! You’re right, this was a recent change to RSVP to the current and future instances of recurring events. We’re discussing this internally to see how we might improve upon this further. I’ll follow up with more information once I have something to share!

Hello @lindsey ,

do you have further information on this topic?
At the moment we are exporting the event to see who changed their state when and then remove them from the list manually.
That’s a bit of a hassle.

Thank you for any update

Hi @anko127 — thank you for following up! I can appreciate how much of a hassle this manual effort has been, and we definitely want to fix that up for you.

Our plan is to improve recurring events to allow people to choose whether they are RSVPing to the single upcoming event, or to every event in the series. We’re finalizing the design work now and then we’ll be getting this worked in front of our engineering team. I don’t have an ETA on when it will be fixed, but it will be in our “next up” projects so I should be back with an update soon.
