It happens! Sometimes you need to withdraw a friend request. Here’s how to do it:
1. Click on “My Friends” in the Admin Box:
2. Click on the “Requests Sent” tab in your Volentia Inbox:
3. You will see a list of people you’ve sent friend requests to.
4. Click the “Withdraw” button next to the person you no longer want to invite to be your friend.
The friend request will no longer be active.
If you find that you cannot add someone on Volentia as your friend, you might have too many outstanding friend requests. You’ll have to withdraw some of your outstanding friend requests before you can invite new people to be your friends. (We cap the number of outstanding friend requests that members can have to prevent spam on the network.)
It’s possible that your invitations were flagged as spam. Please ask your friends to check their spam folders. If the invitations aren’t in there, try sending them once more. If you’re still not having any luck, please contact us. We’d be happy to investigate!
As the event creator, you can make your event private or public. A private event means that only invited people can RSVP, but some information about the event will be visible to all members of your social network on the list of events by date, by type, and by location, as well as on “My Events” for members who have RSVP’d to the event.
Private events were implemented to give event creators a choice about who could RSVP, not as hidden or secret events. If you’re thinking of making an event, keep in mind that those not invited to a private event will still be able to see it.
To update your Event, go to the event’s page and locate the “Admin Options” section. To change anything about your event, click the “Edit Event” link. You can change any information about the event, including the privacy level of the event, and even close it to new attendees.

You can always make changes to your event once it’s been created. You can quickly edit the location or event type from the Event’s page, or edit any of the other fields you filled out when creating your event.
If you make changes to your event, you may want to let people who have been invited to the event know. As an event creator, you can opt to send a message to people who are attending, people who might attend, people who haven’t yet RSVPed, or people who are not attending.
You can send people an update – or a reminder about your event – by returning to the Event’s page and clicking the “Send Message to Guests” link.
To spread the word about your event, invite people to RSVP! You can invite people by typing in email addresses, selecting from your list of Volentia friends, importing your web address book, or importing from an address book application.
To invite people to an event, go to the event’s page and click the “Invite More People” link. People will need to join Volentia to join the event mailing list.
Creating an event on Volentia is a great way to let people know about important upcoming Vegetarian/Vegan related events. These events can range from real-life meet-ups to online chat sessions. To create an event, go to the bottom of the Events window and click the link to “Add an Event.”
Next, fill in information about your event. Required fields include event name, event image, description, event type, start time, and location. You’ll want to upload an image that’s roughly square in size. In the “description” field, you can add text, hyperlinks, images, and even files.
If you’d like, you can add an end time, street, city or town, website or map, and phone number for your event.
By default, any event you add to Volentia will appear as organized by you and will link to your profile page. However you can change who the event is organized by if you’d like in the “Organized By” field.
Don’t forget to choose the privacy settings for your event! Anyone can RSVP to a public event, while only invited people can RSVP to private events. However some information about private events will still be visible to all members of Volentia, including the title, start time, event type, and organizer. You can also choose to disable RSVP altogether or hide the guest list.
Click “Create Event” and your event will be added to Volentia!
The Events feature is a great way to let other Volentia members know about upcoming Vegetarian/Vegan related events and meetups.
You can even organize in-person meet ups using the Events feature on Volentia. You can invite anyone to join your event, even people who haven’t yet joined!
Each event can include a description section, a comment wall, and a list of RSVPs. As an event creator, you can choose the event’s features and privacy and send a broadcast message to everyone who has been invited to the event based on their RSVP.
