Description: We have far too many Event Categories and I'd like to merge a number of them together. What is the best way to do this? Is there a feature that let's me delete a category and reassign all events that use that category to a new one? Or do I need to go back to all the old events and update them manually? Thanks!

Good call. It's not available, but it should be. [You must be logged in to reply]

A simple approach would be something like this: 1. I select Edit on an Event Category 2. I click the Delete button 3. A dialog appears asking me which category to convert existing events to. I've seen other apps use this approach. Thanks! [You must be logged in to reply]

Right. That's precisely how the Thread tag and Rank deletion mechanisms work on this site. [You must be logged in to reply]
