When viewing the agenda, Visit Discover users are free to select from track (subject) view, location view, or list view. The location view relates to areas defined in Onsite settings.
Use Agenda View to preview the agenda as a user will see it in Visit Discover. Use the editor functions to move columns left/right, and apply colours as defined when configuring the event palette.
Step 1
Add tracks
Tracks are used to group activity items (agenda items) into similar subjects or themes. Add a name, description, and translation(s) for each of the tracks to be used by your event agenda. Agenda items you add may be configured to relate to no or many tracks.
Step 2
Add agenda items
Individual activity items may be added, or they bulk imported using the downloadable spreadsheet.
Name: defines the name in the Create interface, so is for your own reference. Use Title to define how the item displays in the agenda.
Tracks: select the track or tracks related to the agenda item. You may unassign previously assigned tracks.
Type: select from the list of available activity item types. This list is system generated and therefore the same for all users.
Code: enter a related item code for your own reference.
Area location: if applicable, select the onsite area where the activity is being held. Onsite scans against this location will associate the attendee with the correct activity item, based on the time of day.
Date/ Start / End: specify the activity item timings, in the local time zone of the event.
Stream URL: upcoming functionality will support content streamed content from the supplied URL. Streamed content may be at any time during the onsite or online event dates.
Access: specify whether the activity item is available with no restrictions (open-access), must be pre-booked (sign up) but free of charge, or whether this is a paid activity item. If offering sign-up or paid items, Visit may enforce the capacity assigned to the location.
Capacity: defaults to the number of places defined for the location (onsite area), however you are also free to overwrite this with your own value.
Restrict Capacity: displays the number of available/taken spaces, and prevents Visit Discover users from signup up or purchasing if the capacity has already been met.
Language: defines the language the content will be delivered in. The selection here does not relate to languages made available in the event setup, for example offering registration forms in multiple languages.
Points: defines the number of points. Points are typically used in CPD (Continuous Professional Development) situations. Define the number of points awarded for participating in an activity item.
Labels: assign the relevant label(s) as configured earlier in event settings. Labels are used to suggest items which may be of interest to a Visit Discover user. It is also possible to assign labels directly under the label management function of the event menu.
Title/Summary/Description: enter information about the agenda item, as will appear in Visit Discover’s agenda. Title and summary are viewable in the agenda listing, the full detail (description) can be seen when viewing the agenda item detail.
Leaders: select the required visitor registrations participating as hosts for the agenda item and define their role. Tip: if your participants are all registered under a common registration type (for example ‘speaker’), select the registration type to filter on just those names. You may search on name or company to find the leaders to assign.
After adding leaders, you may re-order them to suit the order you wish them to be displayed.
Sponsors: select from any of the available exhibitors (partners) you wish to be associated with the activity item. Visit Discover will display the logo image associated with their profile (digital content), and that logo will be linked to their profile in the exhibitor directory. Each agenda item may be associated with no or many sponsors. You may change the order the sponsors are listed by re-ordering them in the interface.
