Meetings: Meeting Blocks

Editing Meeting Blocks

Creating a successful event often requires flexibility and adaptability. Sometimes, you may need to make changes to your event schedule to better accommodate your participants' needs or to make improvements to your matchmaking process.

That's where editing meeting blocks comes in handy. 

Read this article to learn how to edit your meeting blocks. 

How can I edit a meeting block?

First, navigate to Networking from the left sidebar of the Organizer's Tool and click on Configuration

Next, access the Meeting Blocks tab.

Networking dropdown and Meeting Block tab-1

Find the meeting block you want to edit and click on it to open the Meeting block info sidebar

Meeting block info sidebar

In the Details tab, you have the opportunity to edit the meeting blocks' options. 

When it comes to editing your meeting block, your available options depend on whether or not there are already scheduled meetings in the block.

If there are no meetings already scheduled, you can freely edit and configure the block's name, date, time, duration, meeting type, location, registration rules and select or unselect the “Private block” setting.

However, if there are already meetings scheduled within the block, your editing options become more restricted. In this case, you can only edit the name, the meeting type, the registration rules and select or unselect the meeting block as a "private block". It's not possible to edit the start and end date and time and the duration of meetings.

You can add new meeting locations to the block anytime you need to, even if there are already scheduled meetings within the block. If you notice in the Meeting block info sidebar that the Meeting capacity is nearly full and there are no available spots left for meetings, simply add a new location to accommodate everyone.

You cannot remove a meeting location if there are scheduled meetings taking place there. However, if a location has no scheduled meetings, then you are free to remove it. 

For example, if your meeting block has three locations but only two have scheduled meetings, you cannot remove the first two, but you can remove the third one since it's not being used.

After you make changes to the meeting block, click on Save
