Follow these quick steps to update your event ticketing page in ClickBid. --- ### Step-by-Step Instructions 1. **Go to your Admin Dashboard** 2. Click **Event Tickets** from the left menu. 3. Click **Modify Tickets**. ![](https://support.cbo.io/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Feb-08-2026-07-06-21-3275-PM.png?width=451&height=406&name=image-png-Feb-08-2026-07-06-21-3275-PM.png)       4.  Find the ticket or sponsor type you want to update.       5.  Choose how you'd like to remove the option: - Set **Mark as Sold Out** to **Yes**, ***or*** - Set **Visible?** to **No** *Either option will remove the ticket from public view.* ![undefined-Feb-08-2026-07-07-39-5422-PM](https://support.cbo.io/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Feb-08-2026-07-07-39-5422-PM.png?width=670&height=252&name=undefined-Feb-08-2026-07-07-39-5422-PM.png)      5.   (Optional) Add a custom **Sold Out Message** This will display in place of the purchase button so guests know why it's unavailable. Preview the change by going to: **Event Tickets \> Launch Ticket Page** --- **OPTIONAL:** You are also able to deactivate a whole ticket page. For more information, click [here](https://support.cbo.io/how-to-deactivate-my-ticket-page?hsLang=en). --- ### 💡 Pro Tips  **Why mark tickets as sold out instead of deleting them?** Once a ticket has been purchased, it’s important to preserve the record for accurate reporting and guest management. **⚠️ Do not rename tickets after a purchase!** If you change the name of a **Ticket**, **Sponsorship**, or **Underwriting item** after it’s been sold, it can cause reporting issues and prevent guest links from displaying properly.   -
