Time Blocks aren't fixed. Life moves, plans shift, and Existence is built to keep up. This article covers how to edit, adjust, or delete an existing Time Block.
How to edit a Time Block
Open the Blocks page and find the Time Block you want to change.
Click or tap into the Time Block from the Blocks page. If on mobile you will need to tap the Edit button in the top right corner.
From here you can update any field: Title, Pillar, Activity tags, People, Place, Description, or Time Block Favorites.
Make your changes and be sure to save.
Note: your Title drives Existence's suggestions for details such as Pillar and Activities. If you edit the original Title significantly, double check that the suggested Pillar and Activities still are aligned with the updated block.
How to delete a Time Block
From the Blocks page right-click, or tap & hold, the Time Block you want to Delete. You will see a brief menu of options appear, one being Delete.
Alternatively, if you have a Time Block opened up, and able to edit it, you can find the Delete option at the bottom of the block under the calendar information.
Clicking or tapping Delete will bring up a window asking you to confirm deletion. Confirming will remove the Time Block entirely from the Blocks page.
If the Time Block you deleted was created by or targeted to a connected Google Calendar with full access permission, the event will also be removed from that Google calendar--updating the event for all attendees as well if you are the host.
If the Time Block was a recurring event you will see an additional pop up asking to confirm if only the single event should be deleted, it and the following events or to remove all events.
How to adjust the timeframe or duration of a block
From the Blocks page, without having to open and edit a Time Block, you can change a blocks timing by dragging the top or bottom edge of a block to extend or shorten it, or drag the whole block to another time or day completely.
Similarly to deleting a Time Block, if a block is targeted to a connected calendar with full access permission, or a recurring Time Block, you will see additional confirmation windows related to how this adjustment should be reflected on other Existence Time Block's as well as connected calendars events.
Past vs. future Time Blocks
Future Time Blocks behave like a traditional calendar entry: a structure of details sets your intention.
Past Time Blocks work differently.
Once a block's time has passed, Existence treats it as part of your lived record, which is why past blocks allow you to add Energy ratings.
Editing a past block updates the record of what actually happened, so it's worth making sure past-block edits reflect reality, not just what you originally planned.
