30-Minute Meeting Option:

New option to display 30-minute intervals for meetings on the meeting time selection screen

Session Sorting & Reporting Enhancements

A set of enhancements that give the organizer additional insight into session engagement:

• See how many people booked a session and how many actually attended right on the sessions management page

• Sort on the session management page by:

  • Session Name

  • Number of People Booked

  • The number of People who Attended

  • Session Date

• Export now has a new All Sessions tab with total booked and total attended data for each session al on the same tab

• Export now has an All Registrants tab with data for each registrant showing which sessions they booked and which they attended

Filters Management

Ability to manage the front-end display of filters. From this new settings page, the organizer can control:

• Name of each filter

• Order of filters displayed on the front-end

• Who should/should not see each filter

These settings can be applied to the filters on each of these pages:

Do Not Allow News - Exhibitor Category Level Permission

• For each exhibitor category, there is now a new setting that the organizer can toggle on to allow news items for that category, and indicate the number of allowed news items, or toggle off to disallow news for that entire category

• As with other category settings and limits each category can have its own unique settings

• As with our other category level limits, when the toggle is on the default limit will automatically be pre-filled, in this case  with 1 as the default, but this can be changed as desired

Progressive Profiling

• Within the registration pipeline, each custom tab now offers 2 new choices:

  • Hide on Registration

  • Hide on Edit Profile

• This allows the organizer to slowly collect additional information about the user over time by starting with a simple registration form and then enabling additional custom tabs with more detailed questions later on and asking users to update their profiles to complete these additional fields

Option to hide Custom Participant categories anywhere it appears

Ability to hide participant categories on the frontend, as for most events they are for internal use only.

This setting can be toggled by going to (/admin/registration/categories)

Deep Links for Badge Scan (scanning badges with a phone camera)

Ability to scan a badge outside of the event mobile app (ex. with a phone camera or QR code scanning app). If:

• The badge is scanned and the user has our app installed, the app is opened, the user is asked to log in (if unlogged), the app opens the Scan Badges page and the regular flow of badge scanning proceeds

• The badge is scanned and the user has not installed our app, the event is opened in a mobile browser, the user is asked to log in (if unlogged) and then redirected to the public page of the scanned user

• The badge is scanned and the badge has an external QR code and the user has not installed our app, then nothing happens.

• The badge is scanned inside the app, scanning works exactly the same as before

Lead Scanning Improvements

2 improvements to the lead scanning experience:

• As soon as a lead has been scanned, their name and contact info (if allowed) are automatically saved to the exhibitor’s scanned badges list and the timestamp of that scan is saved in our database

• The save button below the notes and rating section has been made bigger

Download Who Scanned Me From Web

• Earlier we released Who Scanned Me with the ability to export that list from your mobile app. Now that list can also be downloaded from the web.

• Similar to Download Leads for exhibitors, the Organizer will have a toggle to turn on/off that will control whether the Download option appears on the front-end under as a link under Profile Info

Ability for User to Turn On/Off Meeting/Messages

New Connections Settings tab will offer users the ability to choose whether or not they want to receive meeting requests and whether or not they want to receive messages

• If they choose not to receive meetings, the meeting button will not appear on their profile card

• If they choose not to receive messages, the message button will not appear on their profile card

Ability to Change Border Color for Sponsors & Sponsored Products

A new setting under General > New UI settings will allow the Organizer to choose the colour of the border for sponsors and sponsored products.

Native Floorplan Page Sponsorship (Web Only)
