Whether you are allowing potential speakers to provide more information about their session or you are an event admin wanting to update approved sessions with more information, reviewing and updating session settings is an important step that should not be overlooked.
Within session settings, you are able to update the following fields:
Rooms - Specify the physical rooms or virtual locations where sessions can be hosted
EX: Ballroom, Exhibitor Hall, President's Lounge
Order: Use room order to organize how the agenda embed is displayed. Rooms will be ordered horizontally from left to right from lowest to highest ascending order. If rooms are all the same order level (e.g. 0) or room value cannot be found, rooms will be displayed alphabetically.
Capacity: Indicated the maximum number of people that can fit within this room. The capacity for rooms will be visible within your agenda view but not within embeds.
Limit: 100,000
Tracks - Add your sessions to a track to better organize your content
EX: Project Management, Business, HR, DevOps
The color associated with each track will also be reflected in the admin agenda view as well as the embeds.
Tags - Tag your sessions and event team members (max character count for tags is 255)
EX: Virtual, In-Person, Hybrid
Levels - Specify the different levels for which sessions can be added
EX: Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced
Formats - Specify the different formats for which sessions can be added
EX: Panel, Breakout Session, Keynote, General Session
Languages - Specify the different languages your sessions can be submitted for
EX: English, Spanish, French
NOTE: Special characters, such as a hyphen or an ampersand sign, are not permitted when creating tracks, tags, locations, languages, and levels.
