New Feature for October - Conference Homepage

As we shift into Autumn, we unveil our latest feature - a new and improved Conference Homepage.

When you're attending a conference, you first need a centralised place to find all the relevant details about the event. A homepage that provides core details and enhances the attendee experience with customisable features.

Of course, we’ve had this feature for a long time, but we’ve given it a significant upgrade to help make admin’s lives less stressful when it comes to displaying event information. It’s also now a far more welcoming page for when your attendees log in for the first time.

Not only does the aesthetic look more pleasing to the eye, but sponsor logos are now on the main homepage. As they play a crucial role in events, they can now shine in their own right with various size options, depending upon which sponsor package they have chosen.

On top of that, we have also introduced three NEW features to this page.

Informative Tabs

Avoid information overload by categorising event details with individual tabs users can click on.

Admins can add multiple tabs, making it a breeze for attendees to differentiate between various sections of event information.

Tips to Enhance the Conference Experience

If you've ever felt overwhelmed by new software or wanted to avoid missing out on key sessions, this feature is for you.

Customisable tips now help attendees navigate the software with ease.

From bookmarking sessions in advance to discovering event content and posters, these handy hints are there to ensure you get the most out of your experience.

Additionally, admins can add any other tips or URL links they want attendees to see, giving you all the inside knowledge you need.

Admins have complete control over what attendees see. If they feel specific tips aren’t necessary for their event or want to highlight specific ones, these tips can be toggled on or off with just a click.

It’s a great tool to help attendees get up to speed using the software and familiarise themselves with the event details and sessions, days, weeks, and even months before the event happens.

Important Document Upload

From information packs and questionnaires to schedules, sometimes there are critical documents that attendees need access to. The attendee homepage provides the option to upload these, ensuring that all necessary resources are at attendees' fingertips.

Don’t worry; we haven’t taken anything away from the original homepage; we’ve enhanced it and moved a couple of things around, so to get up to speed on how to create your conference homepage for attendees, take a look at our step-by-step guide on our Knowledge Base.

This feature is a game-changer for event admins and attendees; its mix of core and customisable features ensures a seamless and enriching conference experience.

Whether you're planning an event or attending one, keep an eye out for this new feature.
