Overview

Conferences i/o can function as a lightweight event app utilizing the Pages feature to distribute basic event information, such as:

Creating a Page

Note: You will need to have admin access to create pages. 

1. Sign in as an Admin → Page Management → Create a New Page. Enter the page label, which is the menu text attendees will see.
2. Select a Page Type:
   • HTML: open text field which allows you to write content and add links, images, video, tables, etc.
   • Embedded PDF: allows attendees to view/download documents 
   • Embedded website: embeds a webpage for attendees to view without leaving the URL 
     • Note: The chosen site must allow embedding over HTTPS & not require a login
   • Embedded image: embeds a picture in the page (PNG/JPG/GIF) 
   • External link: opens a webpage in a new tab
     • Can be used for links that are not public facing, or that don’t allow embedding over HTTPS
   • Presenter Profiles: auto‑generates a page with short bios, phone and link to the presenter’s sessions
     • Note: Presenters will only appear on this page if they’ve already been created.  You can find a list of created presenters under “Manage Presenters” on the admin page.   
3. Click Create Page.

Tip! Not ready for attendees to see the page yet? Select “Yes, hide this page from attendees” before saving.

Common Use Cases

Speaker Bio Page

Create a Resources Page for Attendees to View or Download

First, make sure you’ve generated shareable links for your documents so attendees can view and download. Instructions can be found here: How to add PDFs and Images as “Assets”.

1. Make sure files are publicly accessible (no login wall). Best practice: Upload them as Assets first 
2. Admin → Page Management → Create a New Page → HTML.
3. In the editor, use the Link button: paste the file’s URL, name the link text, Insert, repeat as needed, then Submit.

Attendee Roster

1. In an Excel Spreadsheet→ Create list to include relevant information (names, company, etc.) 
2. File → Save As (or Export) → Select Web Page from the Save as type dropdown
3. Publish (or Save) → Copy HTML from file
4. Admin → Page Management → Create a New Page → HTML Content, click </> Code View, paste the HTML, Save.

Embed a Google Map

1. Use maps.google.com (Share → Embed a map) or a simple helper like embedgooglemap.net to generate embed HTML. 
2. In your app: Admin → Page Management → Create a Page → HTML Content.
3. Switch to HTML source (</>) and paste the map’s embed code → Save. 

Add Live Twitter Feeds

1. Go to publish.twitter.com and enter your profile URL (or list/hashtag) → choose Embedded Timeline → copy the generated code.
2. In Conferences i/o: Admin → Page Management → Create a New Page → HTML Content, paste the code → Save.

Quick Troubleshooting & Admin Tips

• Created a page but forgot to hide it? Click Edit under the page name and check the box to hide.
• Page not visible? Ensure the Navigation menu/sidebar is enabled in the Advanced Settings section of the Admin panel.
• Files won’t open on mobile? Smartphones/tablets may be limited on the types of files that are viewable on device – try only using files that will be suitable for viewing on mobile devices.
