Dashboard homepage search bar
- The search bar on the dashboard homepage has moved from the left side to more of the middle/right. It is now next to ‘Grid View’
- The search bar now has an outlined box that will always show whether or not you are clicked into it.
- The previous search only showed the line when you had it selected. This makes it more visible.
Standardizing enrollable pages
- Previously if you entered enrollable items through the parent agenda item you would see one set of fields. You would see another set of fields when you entered the enrollable items through the enrollable side navigation
- All available fields will now show no matter which way you access enrollable items
Notifications/Shorthand code for custom fields
- Notifications will now allow shorthand code for custom attendee fields.
- Notifications used to only allow our global fields to pull into the notification text but now it can pull all attendee fields that are created in dashboard.
Default Password/Save button
- We added a save button for when the event has a ‘Default Password’.
- Default password used to save automatically when you clicked out but caused confusion so the save button was added to help any confusion.
- Default password can be found in dashboard. Side navigation> Attendees> Attendee Settings> Settings> Enable Default password
CSS Classes added for Tags on the Agenda page
- We added additional css classes for ‘Tags’ on the agenda page.
- Adding this class allows for more customization with ‘Tags’.
- The new class will look like “agenda__item-tag-TAG-NAME-HERE”.
Notification Template/Placeholder
- We added a toggle in notifications that allows you to create notifications, save, and come back later to send.
- Previously notifications had to be ‘Send Immediately’ or ‘Scheduled’. Now notifications can be created and edited at a later date.
- The new toggle can be found when creating a new notification. It can be found right under ‘Schedule Notifications’ called ‘Save As Template’.
Photostream/Search
- We updated our Photostream to allow for searching by either the attendee name or the caption of the photo.
Custom Field Import Instructions
- In dashboard we’ve updated the Custom field importer instructions to make sure it had all the required information for importing.
Global Presence Optimization
- We have made more updates on tracking attendees when idling on a page.
- If an Attendee is sitting on a Main Stage before it kicks off and remains on the page once it’s live they will show on the report.
Cloning Web Access Domains
- When cloning an event you can now select ‘Web Access Domain’ as an option to clone.
- When the web access domain is cloned everything involved clones over. The url will clone as the same url but with the event id at the end. This can be changed in the web access domain.
Agenda Third Party Identifier Shows on the Agenda Dashboard Page
- The new Agenda third party identifier will now show on the agenda dashboard page.
- The column can be found all the way on the right side and is called ‘Identifier’
- This field is also searchable in dashboard.
Enrollables/Export Attendee Time Slots
- Previously, all attendees were pulled when exporting attendee time slots. It will now only pull attendees who have registered for a session
- Exporting attendee time slots for enrollable sessions is found in ‘Enrollable Items’ under export.
