How delete Events?
-
Hi all, I’m still testing this interesting plugin.
I’m not able to delete events. I can only perform a “soft-delete”. If i choose this option, the event disappear from the booking page but remain in the background list. In order to avoid a big increase of the show list i have to “modify” old show changing title, date and cover image to reuse the “slot”.
Could be useful to permit an hard delete of the event and at same time delete all booking of the event.

Hi @sarkof ,
Thanks for testing and the report.The current behaviour is intentional. An event is linked to other records: bookings, payment records, and seat assignments. When you delete an event, it is removed from the admin list and from the booking page, but the row stays in the database. That way existing bookings still point to a real event, and payment records and reports keep working. If we wiped the event completely we would either leave orphan records or destroy customer and payment history, so we chose to keep it in the background.
Deleted events should not show up in your admin list, so you should not need to reuse old events by changing the title, date, and cover image. If a deleted event is still visible somewhere, tell us which screen and we will look into it.
In the next version we will add an option to permanently delete an event. It will remove the event and its seat assignments for good, and you will be able to choose whether to keep or remove its bookings, so past reservations are not lost by accident.
Thanks again, this kind of feedback really helps us shape the plugin.
