What can I do if I accidentally delete or replace an appointment in my SPARK MINDS calendar?
Accidental deletion or replacement of calendar appointments is a common issue faced by users. Below is a comprehensive guide on understanding the nature of such changes and the steps you can take to address them.
Understanding Appointment Deletion or Replacement

Limitations of Restoration
Once an appointment has been removed, there is no built-in functionality that allows it to be restored. However, you can recreate the missing or deleted time slots manually. This ensures users can maintain their appointment schedules with minimal disruption.

Follow these steps to recreate deleted calendar slots:
Open the Calendar Editor: Navigate to your SPARK MINDS calendar and open the editor interface.

Additional Tips for Avoiding Accidental Deletion
Double-Check Before Deleting: Confirm the details of an appointment before you delete or replace it to avoid accidental changes.

Designate Admin Users Carefully: Limit editing permissions to trusted team members to prevent accidental changes to shared calendars.
