Build your program from your event's Schedule area in Event Manager. You can prepare and save items before making the schedule available to readers.
Create your first schedule
Open your event in Event Manager and choose Schedule.
If Confirm when your event runs appears, check the dates, hours and Event timezone, then save the event details.
Choose Add item.
Enter a clear Title, choose a Type, and set the Day and Time.
Add the location, people, description and tags that readers need.
Choose the item's Visibility, then save.
Repeat for the rest of your program. Review any schedule health findings.
Choose Publish when you are ready to review access and release the schedule.
For example, create separate items for registration, an author panel and an evening signing. Readers can then find the activities that matter to them.
Already have a spreadsheet? Use Import spreadsheet to bring sessions into your draft, then review and publish them. Add venue maps and pin your schedule rooms to help readers find each activity.
FAQ
Does saving an item make it public?
Saving builds your working schedule. Publish the schedule to release it to readers. If you already have a live schedule, readers continue to see its published version while you prepare item changes.
Do I have to create every room and person first?
No. You can prepare them under Rooms and People, or add them while creating an item.
Can my team have items that readers cannot see?
Yes. Use Private for team-only items and Internal notes for team instructions on an item.
