# How do I edit a competition after it's created?

> Change a competition from its Settings panel, see which tabs save, move it into a season, and delete a draft.

<Note>
  **Must know**

  * **Edit from Settings.** On a plan with **Competitions**, use **Settings** on the competition or the gear icon in the list. There's no step-by-step editor after creation.
  * **Pricing, events and seed marks are fixed at creation.** The **Pricing**, **Categories** and **Results** tabs don't save changes, and there's no GL code field.
  * **Live is one-way.** A Live competition can't go back to Draft, and only a Draft can be deleted.
  * **Seasons are set from the season.** With **Seasons** on, use **Settings > Registration > Seasons**, not this panel.
</Note>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Settings">
    Go to **Registrations > Competitions**. Open a competition and click **Settings**, or click its gear icon (**Edit competition**) in the list.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Edit and save">
    Change any tabs, then click **Save Changes** once. You see "Competition saved" and the panel closes.
  </Step>
</Steps>

| Tab | What it shows | Saves? |
| - | - | - |
| **General** | Name, color, facility, dates | Yes |
| **Categories** | Events by age category | No |
| **Restrictions** | The same requirement cards you set when you created it | Yes |
| **Results** | **Require Seed**, **Record Results** | No |
| **Pricing** | Mode and prices, no GL code field | No |
| **Registration** | Registration window, **Early Access Code** and its copyable **Early Access Link** | Yes |
| **Publishing** | Status | Yes, see below |

**What doesn't save.** These three tabs still say "Competition saved", but the competition keeps its original events, seed-mark settings, pricing and GL code, and every event can take results. To change them, create a new competition with **Copy from Existing** (on its first step) and delete the old one if it's still a Draft.

**Watch the address.** Picking **Enter address manually** under **Facility** saves a blank address. The panel has no address fields.

**Publishing.** Options depend on the current status:

| Current status | Options offered |
| - | - |
| Draft or Scheduled | Draft, Live, Scheduled, Closed, Completed |
| Live | Live, Closed, Completed |
| Closed or Completed | Closed, Completed |

**Closed** and **Completed** both hide it from your club website, even though **Closed** says it stays visible. **Scheduled** never goes live on its own: switch it to **Live** yourself.

**Seasons.** In **Settings > Registration > Seasons**, open the season and click **Add Competition** on its **Competitions** tab. A competition sits in one season, so picking one from another season moves it. The X (**Remove from season**) on its row takes it out. When you create a competition, its **Season** step offers only Active seasons.

**Purchase and entry conditions.** **Purchase conditions** sit on the competition's **Overview** tab. Each event's **Entry conditions** are on its page, opened from the **Events** tab.

**Delete a draft.** In the list, click the trash icon (greyed out unless it's a Draft), then **Delete** in "Delete competition?". It can't be undone. Editing needs **Edit Events**; deleting needs **Delete Events**.
