Event settings

Name, dates, timezone, venue, event code and publish state.

What it is

The event's identity: what it is called, when and where it happens, and whether attendees can see it.

When to use it

The timezone in particular. Every displayed time in both apps comes from here.

Step by step

  1. 1

    Name and datesEvent App → App Customization → Settings

    Also the venue address. When suggestions are available, start typing and select a place to capture its map coordinates. You can always type the address manually. Editing a selected address clears its old coordinates, and a slow lookup will not replace your newer text. If a lookup fails, your address stays editable; save the form to keep it.

  2. 2

    Timezone

    Set it before entering any session times.

  3. 3

    Publish state

    Draft events are invisible to attendees entirely.

  4. 4

    Turn app modules on or offEvent App → App Customization → Settings → Features

    Directory, lead capture, passport, live Q&A and chat, each with its own switch. The last row, Ask attendees to allow notifications, is on by default: a few seconds after a signed-in attendee opens the app, a sheet asks them once to turn on notifications so your announcements reach their phone. Whatever they answer, they are not asked again on that browser; the switch on their Me page and the Notifications screen stay available. Turn it off to leave only those.

When it goes wrong

Every one of these has happened to someone. Symptom first, because that is what you will have.

Timezone changed after the agenda was builtblocker

What you see: Every session shifts by the same number of hours.
Why: Session times are wall-clock and are reinterpreted, not converted.
Fix: Set the timezone first. If it has happened, correct the affected sessions.
