💡 Good to Know

If an event has only one date, closing is a simple confirm step.
If closing All Dates, the live booking form will show: “Event Closed. Please contact the event organizer.”
When an admin closes selected dates, only those time slots are removed; the event stays active, and other dates continue working as normal.
Rescheduling works in real time — parents only see available dates. If the event is closed, they cannot reschedule.
Existing bookings remain visible in the SignUpJester admin dashboard.

Hooray! Your events are now easier than ever to manage. Close them when needed, reopen them when it’s time, and enjoy smoother schedules for everyone!
