Email Questions #

 

When do the schedule reminder emails go out?

The daily schedule email goes out early automatically each morning of your event (around 2 am local time). Please remember to check that your timezone is correct in settings.

 

How do I delete/ edit/ alter an email that I have sent?

Once an email has been queued to send, you won’t be able to edit or retrieve it. It is a feature that other event organizers have asked for, so we are keeping this in mind while working on future updates. I’m not sure if or when this feature will be available, though. If you reach out to the support team at support@sched.com with when it was scheduled to be sent, the email subject, and/or who it was sent to, they can get a copy of the content once it has been sent out.

 

Can I disable the daily schedule email reminder?

Sure thing, you can disable your daily schedule email reminders here:

https://yourevent.sched.com/editor/tickets-settings

Although, I feel they are a valuable reminder for attendees. You can even add a custom message to the top of them. Some organizer use this as an opportunity for important reminders, lost + found, or just to share a positive message.
