    3. Session Configuration

    • Activate Questions & Answers
    • Activate Polls on Live
    • Activate group chat
    • Activate reactions

    + info 👉 What interaction options are available during a presentation at an event?

    NOTE 🗒️: If the sessions are workshop-type, you can also activate the following options:

    • Registration options
    • Allow registration from the event registration form
    • Allow registration from the calendar (make it a paid session)

    2. Tracks

    Tracks are color-coded tags 🔵🔴that help differentiate the content of one agenda session from another. They can be assigned to agenda sessions to make it easier to search and filter presentations by topic. This tool makes it easier to quickly and visually find sessions on the agenda.

    IMPORTANT ❗The tracks are available for the App & Web (not Landing).

    1. In Agenda > Tracks, click on "New Track" and assign a name and, optionally, a color. Both will be visible in the event agenda.

    NOTE🗒️: In Agenda > Settings you can activate the color of the tracks to be displayed in the App's agenda sessions

    3. Rooms

    The rooms are spaces where several sessions take place in a row, allowing attendees to stay in the same place, without having to enter and leave the sessions as the day's presentations progress.

    In Agenda > Rooms, click the "Create Room" button. There, assign:

    • A name for the room
    • An image (optional field)
    • A video (optional field)
    • Determine the room's capacity, that is, the number of people who could enter the room (if no specific number is specified, capacity is unlimited).
      Screenshot_3-7-2025_95146_admin.meetmaps.com

    IMPORTANT ❗Setting a video for the room is optional, however we recommend it because if you forget to activate the live session or the transmission fails, the attendees will see the video you have configured in each of the rooms by default. It is also useful for pause intervals between sessions.

    It's important to include the link of the video in all the languages of the event. If in one of the sections it is not included, the attendees will not see the video. 

    Once you've created the different rooms, you'll need to link the agenda sessions to them. When creating or editing an agenda session, in the 1. Attendee Information section, select the room.

    When you have rooms, the ideal agenda layout is the "complete agenda" in Agenda > Configuration. This layout offers the ability to create rooms and the possibility of having two or more simultaneous sessions broadcasting in the same time slot.
