What is the difference between Active and Inactive opportunities?

Active opportunities are published and available for volunteers to engage with. For example, viewing and reserving spots to shifts. claiming hours, participating in the opportunity chatroom, etc.
An opportunity can be active but private. The visibility is separate from the overall status.

Inactive opportunities are removed from the Opportunity Board (if public) and volunteers can no longer apply to the opportunity or book shifts.
By deactivating an opportunity, you will immediately cancel all upcoming shifts and bookings, and close the application portal.
