# Editing or Deleting a Lottery

## Modifying Existing Lotteries

### Editing a Lottery

Each [Lottery Card](../lottery-cards#lottery-card) has its own **Edit** button. When this button is clicked, the selected lottery will be opened in a form similar to the one used when [Creating a Lottery](../creating-a-lottery#walkthrough), with the existing data pre-populated. Only the **Title**, **Visibility Date**, and **Visibility Time** fields will be editable, as once a lottery has been created, the **Draft Schedule** may not be changed.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Note: While the **Visibility Date** and **Visibility Time** fields will be editable, modifying these dates is highly discouraged, as it can cause unexpected behaviour, especially for lotteries further along in the process of building and executing stages.
{% endhint %}

### Deleting a Lottery

Each [Lottery Card](../lottery-cards#lottery-card) also has its own **Delete** button. When this button is clicked, a confirmation dialogue box will be shown, to verify that the lottery should indeed be deleted. A warning notice will be displayed above a minimalistic summary outlining all of the associated stages, that will be deleted along with the lottery if the **Confirm** button is selected.
