Session Block: Website Builder
Like other platform blocks the Session Block within a website builder stands as an indispensable tool for crafting engaging and strategic narratives around sessions and content. This dynamic feature not only presents information but transforms it into a visually compelling and seamlessly organized experience, catering to the needs of both organizers and attendees.
Beyond conventional sorting by alphabetic order, the Session Block introduces innovative sorting options. From alphabetical arrangements to inverted sequences and random shuffling, users can now even prioritize sessions based on a percentage of match. This level of customization elevates the sorting experience, adding a layer of dynamic organization.
There are three distinct layouts available for the Sponsor Block allowing organizers to choose the presentation style that best suits their website aesthetics.
