Publishing / Unpublishing Sessions

When you organize an event, it's important to keep track of the different sessions that will take place during the event. Creating sessions and ensuring that participants have access to all the necessary information about them is one of the primary responsibilities of an event organizer.

Once you've created a session, you have the option to either publish it or keep it unpublished.

What is the difference between an unpublished and a published session?

If a session is published, it means that it will be displayed on the event website's agenda, which the participants can see. This allows participants to plan their schedules and decide which sessions they want to attend.

Tip: As an organizer, it's essential to ensure that all the relevant information is included in the session before publishing it. This includes details such as the session title, description, date, time, and location.

On the other hand, an unpublished session won’t be visible to the participants. While you as the organizer can see the session in the Organizer's tool, it won't appear on the agenda until it's published.

Tip: Unpublished status is useful when information is incomplete or pending, like unconfirmed speakers or unfinalized session details. You should publish a session only after all the information is available to prevent last-minute changes or confusion for the participants.

How to unpublish a session?

The process of unpublishing a session is similar to that of publishing a session.

To check whether a session is published or not, go to the Agenda from the left sidebar. In the Sessions tab, you'll find a list of all the sessions you've created.

You can easily determine whether a session is published by looking at the "Status" column, which indicates whether it's "published" or "unpublished".
