# Remove attendees from a seminar

You can manually remove attendees by searching for the user by first name, last name, or email address.

To remove attendees, follow these steps:

1. Go to the seminar activity you wish to remove attendees from.
2. Alongside the corresponding event click the **Attendees** link.
3. Under the **Attendees** tab use the **Action** dropdown menu to select **Remove users**.
4. Next, search for the user by first name, last name or email address and/or clicking on their name(s) from the **Current users** list.
5. Once you have found the user, click their name and then select **Remove**. You can select multiple individuals by holding **Ctrl**/**Cmd** or **Shift** when you click.
6. Click the **Continue** button to confirm your updates.
7. If required you can update your user selection via the **Change selected users** link.
8. Where custom fields have been added to the **Cancellation** form you can edit them for all selected users. The values entered will be populated for all selected users.
9. Select **Confirm** to remove the selected users.

You can configure the notifications that will be sent for the **Booking cancelled** trigger (i.e. when a user is removed from the event) [at the site level](/totara-20/docs/edit-a-notification) or for an [individual seminar](/totara-20/docs/configure-seminar-notifications).
