Exciting news ! ✨ - A new events interface is available
We’re thrilled to announce that the 'Events Listing Page' on your main dashboard has been upgraded.
Our team has been working tirelessly to bring you a fresh, modern, and more intuitive experience. These enhancements are designed to be faster, more responsive, and visually stunning, ensuring a smoother and more enjoyable way to explore events.
This is just the beginning—stay tuned for even more exciting updates coming your way! We can’t wait for you to try it out and hear your feedback.
Phone numbers in registration forms: Added a restriction to 17 characters maximum
The phone field in the registration form previously allowed up to 70 characters, which was unnecessary as phone numbers are much shorter.
We’ve now set a 17-character limit, and this update is live.
Events API endpoint cache time reduced
The events API endpoint had a cache of 30 minutes.
Today we've pushed a change that decreases the cache time from 30 to 10 minutes.
Activity Schedule Display in Eventtia Back-Office
From now on, in Eventtia's Back-Office (https://connect.eventtia.com/en/users/sign_in), your activity schedules are being displayed according to the event's time zone, regardless of your location.
Event's activities can be found in the "Program" module.
With this improvement, we aim to offer you greater precision and consistency in managing your events.
Automated Invoice Sending for Event Ticketing and Online Payments
From the invoicing module in eventtia's back-office, we have implemented an enhancement that automates the invoicing process when making new charges or payments for registration to any activity.
This update not only streamlines the overall process but also enhances the customer experience by providing instant and effective communication about their transactions.
Improvement in Checkpoints Report Format
We are pleased to inform you of a recent enhancement to the Checkpoints report format.
We have updated the design to separate the columns for first and last names. This change promotes uniformity and improves data organization within Eventtia and across our clients' CRMs.
To access this report, navigate to the registration module, select 'Checkpoints', then 'Edit Checkpoint', go to the 'Attendees' tab, and click on the 'Export to Excel' button.
We hope this improvement enriches your experience with our platform.
Virtual Stage: The Display of Announcements and Alerts Has Been Upgraded
We are pleased to inform you about the recent enhancements in the display of announcements and alerts in the Virtual Stage, Launch Event Commander.
Now, in the Live Announcements section, users can manage two types of communications: Alerts and Informative messages.
Alerts are meant for important notices that require immediate attention, while Informative messages provide recommendations and suggestions.
This update provides a better user experience by enabling more efficient management of critical and useful information in Virtual Stage.
Enhanced Functionality for Multiple Selection Fields
As part of our ongoing commitment to enhancing user experience, we have implemented a significant improvement to the multiple-selection fields.
Now, not only can attendees choose from various options, but we've introduced the flexibility to set a minimum and maximum number of selections. This feature empowers you to tailor the selection process precisely to your events' requirements.
Here's how it works: When enabled, the field allows you to specify the minimum and maximum number of options attendees can choose. Each option can be assigned a corresponding value, adding a layer of customization to better suit your event dynamics.
The system is now equipped to validate the selections made by attendees. If the provided values fall outside the configured criteria of minimum and maximum, the field will trigger a validation error, ensuring accuracy and adherence to your event guidelines.
You can manage this functionality from the administration area / Back office, under the participant type > registration form > new field > multiple selection type > Min. Sel. Options or Max. Sel. Options.

Now on the Program module inside the Virtual Stage or Mobile App, in the meetings section, your participants can see the meeting location from the initial description of the space assigned in the agenda.
Process improvement for paid activities in the virtual scene or mobile app
We have implemented a new process when it comes to registration to activities with additional cost from the Virtual Stage. Now when a participant clicks on the “purchase” button they will be redirected to the registration form where they can finish their payment.
Functionality to uncheck an attendee from a workshop
Now you will be able to cancel the registration for a specific attendee to your workshops. When you are editing your user’s role permission you can select whether or not they can uncheck an attendee’s registration to a workshop from the back office.
Permit Location:
Users > Roles > Choose type of role > edit "on the 3-point button" > Program module >Workshops > Unregister entrance.
Additional information on the Workshops Report
We have added more information to your events’ Workshop Report now you will have the following fields available: ID, Participant Type, Position, Phone, Checked in to event (yes/no), Checked-in time, Checked-in to Workshop, Date and time they accessed the Workshop.
Img. 1 Back office
Img. 2 Back office

Background for “home” and “main stage”
Thinking about delivering a better experience on our mobile app for participants, the main stage and home page will have the same image unless the home page is being set up by using HTML code keeping consistency throughout the app.
Update and improvement for activity reporting
Within the workshop reports, the following information was added: Paid reserved seats and Free capacity, which will allow the organizer to know a more detailed status for the activities, on the same report.
To download this report, remember to log in from Eventtia's back office, in the program module > activities > actions > export to Excel.
Location removed in activities
The event’s location was removed from the activities’ description on the Virtual Stage/ Mobile App in physical events.
Country Code on “Phone field” set by default
We have developed a solution on the backend so on the “Phone Field” on your registration forms the country code assing will be by default the country selected for your event.
Update on activity reminders for participants
Now you will be able to configure specific reminders for activities for each participant type. Remember this option is available in the Program Module > Advanced Settings > Reminders. If you wish to send a general reminder you can still do it by setting it up on the general template without clicking on the specific participant type.
Contact information visible in the appointments of the Networking
One of the significant advantages of having Networking at your events is to facilitate the generation of interpersonal relationships among your attendees; in this way, they can enhance the opportunities they find when attending your events. We have enabled an option that allows your attendees who have appointments scheduled in the Networking to view the contact information of the person with whom they have an appointment, either virtually or In-person.
Follow-up to the Networking in Hybrid events
At Eventtia, we understand that unexpected situations are part of the execution stage of the events, which is why we want you to have as much control over the meetings scheduled virtually at the Networking in your hybrid events.
From the Networking module - Participant Profile tap in the backoffice, you will be able to view and access the links of your participants' calls. Thus, in your role as event administrator, you will be able to attend to possible requirements and/or difficulties.
Custom Surveys
At Eventtia we understand the great opportunities generated when you can design your events wholly personalized with your brand; we have enabled the event banner to be visible within the survey when you send it to your attendees by email.
Limit the number of meetings per type of participant
Networking is currently one of the main tools to generate valuable connections for you and your attendees. Achieving perfect planning and organization of it is one of the main objectives of our platform; that is why we have added for you, within the Registration module – the General Information tab, an option that allows you to limit the number of appointments by type of a participant that has a Networking profile associated with it.
Launch Event Commander available for all types of events (In-person, Virtual, and Hybrid)
Being able to visualize in real-time the development of the activities of your event, regardless of the modality (In-person, Virtual or Hybrid). As well as knowing data on the number of active attendees, and making live announcements, among others, are the improvements that Eventtia brings you through the Control Board module - “Event Launch Commander” option, we want to support you as an administrator of your event so that you optimize all the opportunities that bring data that had not previously been explored or were not easily visualized in the execution stage of your event.
We have extended the number of characters to name the chat channels to 75
Thinking about your needs when designing your event. We have expanded the number of characters to 75 to name the additional chat channels you want your events in very new and creative ways.
We improve the visualization in the agenda of the Networking program in the Virtual Stage
To make your event an easy and friendly experience for your attendees, they do not miss any opportunity to plan their Networking. We have improved the visualization in the presentation of the agendas in the Virtual Stage to visualize the status of their appointments, especially those that are pending confirmation.
Networking agenda improvements (Block Occupied)
We have improved a display of your appointments in the Virtual Stage, a new way of presenting the information on the status of the works, to give your participants greater clarity when scheduling their appointments at a business conference.
1. When an appointment is requested and the other participant has not yet accepted it, the block will look like this:
2. When the requested participant must accept the appointment, it will look like this:
New report to view the registration of your participants
Now the Reports module, Registration - Program option, you can view within a chosen time range the dates and times in which the participants registered for your event
Additionally, you can generate reports in Excel that allow you to take advantage of the information according to your company's needs.
New functionality for buying group tickets
If you require it, we can activate a functionality on your account, through the support team, which allows an attendee to buy the tickets for a whole group of participants. Then these participants can make their registrations individually thanks to the link the buyer will send them after the payment.
New settings button in Virtual Stage
Attendees who attend hybrid events now have a button in the Virtual Stage that allows them to select the modality under which they will attend the event (face-to-face - virtual).
Now our virtual stage is also available in Arabic
We continue to expand the language options so you can hold your events anywhere in the world. Starting now you can set the Virtual Stage in Arabic.
Now you can set up your events with the GTQ currency
We continue expanding our list of currencies. Now we have a new currency (GTQ) in our general configuration module that will allow you to charge your attendees in the official currency of Guatemala.
Invoice identifier customization
Responding to our client's particular needs regarding billing identification for events, we have enabled the possibility of editing the Invoice ID inside the "Finance" module on the "Billing" button.
New visualization of the schedule on the Virtual Stage
Thinking on giving a better experience for the attendees and following our clients' recommendations, we have hidden in the virtual stage the activities' tabs that are not available (Networking, Workshops, and Sponsor Activities), showing just in their agendas the tabs with activities scheduled.
Incorporate the new badge RON in the “Currency” option configuration.
We have a new currency available for participants and event organizers, now you can select RON the official currency in Romania.
File size limit for uploading to “My Profile”
We have improved the user experience when uploading files in the "My profile" section, now a popup alert message will appear if the document has not been successfully attached because it exceeded the 9 MB maximum upload size.
Restrict networking access on the Virtual Stage for participants who haven’t paid and/or are awaiting acceptance
We’ve added a new access restriction to networking on the Virtual Stage for participants who have yet to pay or be validated. This new feature means that this type of participant will be unable to schedule, receive or confirm meeting appointments. Instead, their agendas will be hidden and counterparts who have paid or been validated will not be able to book meetings with them.
Choose which custom fields can be edited by participants inside the Virtual Stage
When it comes to custom fields, there is often important information that you might not want to be edited by the participant. For this reason, we have implemented a solution on the Virtual Stage so that the custom fields can only be edited by the event organizer and not by the attendee.
Pick and choose the events that you want added to the calendar widget
It is now possible to select the events that you want to be shown on the event calendar widget. To do this you just need to pick the events you want to be shown in the back office under event settings. Finally, keep in mind that modifying an event that has already been created takes 30-minutes to be shown on the widget.
Better visibility of registered activities inside the Virtual Stage
To give attendees a clear overview of their agendas and the activities that they are or aren’t registered to, we have improved the visibility of the agenda and activities in which they are participating.
For activities that participants have registered
for, the primary color of the Virtual Stage will appear and depending on their
duration (if the blocks are very small or large), only the registration icon
will appear together with the session’s text. Here are some screenshots below
which show how this looks:
Participant rated view
A filter for rated event participants based on the B2B matchmaking algorithm has been developed.
Rejection and appraisal of new meetings
In the case that a one-to-one meeting is rejected a new appointment slot can be requested at a later time.
Zoom Integration
In order to make it easier to create activities that require the use of Zoom, we have made an enhancement that will allow organizers to better manage their Zoom accounts.
In order to create your meetings and webinars through Zoom, it is necessary to do so using JWT credentials. However, we understand that this can generate limitations since not all users have access to these.
This improvement now allows an account user to enter the credentials and this integration will be available to all account users, which means that you will not have to enter this data in each activity.
The first thing to do is go to the "Users" menu located in the upper right part of the screen.
Once here, you will find the "Account Integrations" tab and then click on the Zoom icon.
Finally, you must enter the JWT credentials of the Zoom account that you want to associate.
Now you can create activities only by selecting the associated account, which will facilitate the task of event organizers.
Networking Meetings: : Improvements and Updates for One-on-One Meetings
We want your participants' experience to always be the best, which is why in order for them to make sure that all the elements for their appointments are working well, we have added validation for their one-to-one meetings.
For appointments to take place with no issues, participants need to grant camera and microphone permissionions.
Additionally, participants can set the background with the images provided by Twilio.
The meeting platform will allow you to have up to 9 participants in a call.
With these new updates, you will be able to improve your connectivity experience and speed.
Workshops: Zoom Web SDK Version 1.9.5
We want to keep up with all the updates our partners make. For this reason, we updated our Zoom Web client in order to allow clients to use all available features, generating the best experience for participants.
You can read more about the allowed features here.
