Event self-duplicating!
December 27, 2009, 09:09:32 am
I have CiviCRM 2.2.0 with Drupal 6.
I'm having a really weird problem. I have one event, but it seems to self-duplicate itself randomly. Today I logged in and I saw 300 copies of my event. They are named like: Copy of Copy of Copy of Copy of Copy of Copy of Copy of Copy of ISIS conference  (ID: 261)

When it does this, it also seems to randomly disable/enable my original event as well. I have no idea why it's happening, and I tried searching everywhere (inc this forum) to see if people have similar issues but I couldn't find an answer.

Anyone else knows about this?

your permissions are not set up right :(

ensure that anonymous user does not have permission for "access CiviEvent". the search engine bots are most likely causing the copy and copies of copies

Have just had the same issue.

Have almost 3000 events.

Any way to bulk delete them?

I guess only way to delete unwanted events is via SQL.
