Gramps 5.1.6. Is there a way to select an event say census and then have a way to select family members to share that event with or do I just keep using the clipboard and paste to each person individually. I tried using Forms but when I change role, the form disappears or only shows the primary. ---

I needed this feature for my own research so I created an addon to help. This is mainly an experimental “prototype” but maybe it works for you. See [https://github.com/kkujansuu/gramps/tree/master/addons/add-multiple-events](https://github.com/kkujansuu/gramps/tree/master/addons/add-multiple-events) Install by copying the .py files manually. ---
