In this article, we will explore how to effectively repurpose old timelines and create new ones using the innovative features of Timeline Genius. With its user-friendly interface and customizable templates, Timeline Genius makes event planning a breeze. Let's dive into the step-by-step process.

To avoid starting from scratch, you have the option to create new timelines based on timelines that you already have. If you plan similar kinds of events, this can be a huge time-saver for you! Here’s how to take advantage of this feature:

  1. Click on the “Create New Timeline” button in the top right of your screen.

  2. Under the “Use Previous Timeline” option, click the “Select” button.

  3. Select either the “Archived” or “Active” sub-tab and locate the timeline that you’d like to use as a template. Click “Select Timeline”.

  4. Input the necessary text into the “Basic Information” fields, then click “Next”.

  5. Input the new venues and vendors into the fields on the right that will replace the old ones in your previous template (shown on the left). If a specific field does not apply to your new event, feel free to click the “Remove” link on the right.

  6. Review the information summary and then click “Generate Timeline”.

To speed up timeline creation, start with one of our preset templates. We offer carefully-crafted templates that you can customize as needed, whether you’re planning a same-sex wedding, a Bar Mitzvah, or a social event. Follow the steps below to create your timeline using one of our templates:

  1. Log in to your account and click the “Create New Timeline” button in the top right.

  2. Click the “Select” button under the option titled “Use Template”.
