Do you have a program line up feature ?

[Anand Gurnani]

Hi,

I use the wordpress theme, the Keynote, it gives me options to add speaker profiles, session details and then I just need to put a shortcode and it creates a program line up – check vamrr.co

However, the theme is good only for a conference website. In my case, I plan to go with the avada and newspaper theme and want to add the events calendar theme as I will be doing several events a month. I want to understand, that besides calendar, it should also allow me to update program line up, speaker profiles, session intros, etc. Please advise. Also like several of the event SAAS platforms these days such as Hublio or Mera Events does Events Calendar also allow member networking ?

Thank You

Hi Anand,

Great questions.

I’m afraid there is no supported feature in The Events Calendar to create a program lineup. You can, however, add multiple “organizers” to an event and that will list all of the associated organizers to an event on the event post (screenshot). In turn, you can also rename “organizers” to something else, like speakers, using a snippet like this one.

Member networking is also something that isn’t supported by the plugin right out of the box. Event Tickets Plus does allow you to display a list of people attending the same event on the event post, but nothing as far as folks being able to message or contact one another.

Does this help answer your questions? Please let me know.

Cheers!
Geoff

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics.
