Topic Tag: CRED API

Problem:
The user would like to implement a duplicate form where he can customize some fields.

Solution:
This is possible with custom code. The idea is to create a new create event form, that will include "startdate", "enddate", and "submit" form fields, then hook into the submission and copy all other fields from the original event. You can check a similar case, that copies all fields, here https://toolset.com/forums/topic/front-end-user-duplicate-post-function/#post-281290

You can either hook into "cred_before_save_data" which happens before saving the new post or into "cred_save_data" which happens after saving the new post.
