Conference Scheduler

Beschreibung

Conference Scheduler allows you to easily manage and display complex workshop schedules for conferences and similar events, and also provide information about the workshops on your website in a clean, searchable, responsive interface. Create and manage details about your workshops using the standard WordPress admin interface and display it all on any page of your site with a simple shortcode.

Features

  • Add and edit workshops in the standard WordPress admin
  • Collects and displays important information about each workshop: workshop code, time, location, description, presenter, presenter bio, participant limit
  • Add files to workshops – lets you easily distribute presentation files or other reference material
  • Handles parallel sessions
  • Optionally group workshops by location within a session
  • Categorize workshops into streams and areas with tags
  • Search and filter workshop listings on the front-end for easy access
  • Pick workshops on the front-end so delegates can build their ideal conference schedule
  • Customize the style of workshops easily using the WordPress customizer
  • Responsive design means your schedule looks and works great on all devices – delegates can quickly pull out their phone at any time to check the schedule or workshop info
  • Upgrade to Conference Scheduler Pro and you also get:
    • Import/Export to/from Excel
    • Complete user registration system with optional waitlists for space limited workshops
    • Multi-lingual support with WPML and Polylang compatibility
    • Extensible architecture for customization – adding fields, display templates, search customization

  • Conf Scheduler Display

Installation

  • Install and activate the Conference Scheduler plugin from the WordPress Plugins Directory.
  • Setup Sessions – Conference Scheduler manages workshop timings using Sessions. Enter all possible workshop sessions on the ‚Conference -> Sessions‘ screen of the WordPress admin. Name each session and specify start date/time and session length. Sessions can be nested to easily organize complex schedules (eg. a one hour session with two 30min sessions in parallel).
  • Setup Streams and Areas – if your conference has defined streams it’s best to define these tags first so you can apply them to workshops. You can also create new tags when entering workshops if you think of new ones later.
  • Enter Workshop data – Add your workshops
  • Display the schedule on any page of your site with the Conference Scheduler block or [conf_scheduler] shortcode.

FAQ

How do I change the way the workshops look

Use the WordPress Customizer to change basic display settings. For advanced customization, use Custom CSS rules – Conference Scheduler has been designed with a minimal set of CSS rules that are easy to extend. If you need help styling Conference Scheduler to match your theme, get in touch, and I’d be happy to help for a small fee.

How are picks stored

Picked workshops are stored as a cookie on the device and are thus saved between visits. If a user logs in and registers for a workshop, that is saved to their profile and displays on any device they log in with.

What fields does the front-end search box search in

The front-end search box looks for the query text in the workshop title and presenter fields.

I am very disappointed with this app and the support. I have tried numerous times to contact via email and telephone with no response. I did not like the visual layout nor did it provide me with the options I needed for my event. I purchased the Pro version and asked for a refund the next day. I emailed twice regarding the refund and have had NO response on the refund 9 days later.

I run an annual online conference and have struggled with how to present the schedule nicely. This plug in has been exactly what I needed. When I had a hard time with some formatting, I got quick and helpful customer service, which I really appreciated!

I used the pro version of this plugin to schedule a Professional Development day for a school district. I tried out every free and inexpensive ticketing system out there, and nothing was working. I needed wait listing and a few other features, like offering choices during different time slots. I contacted Shane with some suggestions on how to tweak his product so that it would work for this type of event, and he implemented my suggestions. The only products that do the same type of things as this plugin cost a fortune. Most charge a monthly fee, and would only work for large venues with huge budgets and frequent repeating events. I can’t remember exactly which features are only available on the pro version, but I would absolutely recommend the upgrade if you need those features. The support is spectacular and the plugin works like a charm. I would especially recommend this plugin if you are organizing a conference for a school or district. I would also recommend disabling the stars, because people don’t read and they confused a lot of people who thought that clicking on the stars registered them in the sessions. Update: another successful conference and every year this plugin gains useful features. I would give it 6 stars if I could.

The conference scheduler is an excellent plugin for any WordPress site that wishes to set up a conference schedule. The plugin is very intuitive to use for both the end user and the webmaster. There are many options for setting up themes or tracks, keywords, and more. You can set up nested sessions and workshops inside the sessions with the workshops tagged with keywords and/or themes. This makes it easy for the website viewer to search for the sessions that they are interested in. The user can also create a personalized schedule by clicking on the stars of the workshops that they wish to attend. The „show my picks“ filter then shows only the workshops that the user has selected, making the perfect personalized schedule for the web viewer. Additionally, a single click on the workshop box expands the description of the workshop. The conference scheduler plugin is a very well designed plugin that installs as well as configures easily.
