Eventtia Changelog

We want the experience of the participants to be the best always. In order for them to verify that all the elements necessary for your appointments are working correctly, we have added a validation to the networking meetings.

It is important that participants allows access to camera and microphone so that the meetings can go on correctly.

We encourage events which offer a lot of modules to their participants. This is a great way to generate engagement and wholesome experiences.

In order for participants to be able to access all these modules as easy as possible, we added the possibility to scroll through them in the navbar.

We understand that attendees always want to have as much information as possible, especially when it comes to what they are being charged at the event.

That is why we have made improvements on our invoices, to be able to break down each item that is part of the total value that the attendee has paid.

With virtual events becoming more and more global, we understand that it is necessary for your participants to be able to correctly know when the different activities will occur.

This is why we have made some improvements in the management of time zones within the Virtual Stage that apply to:

-Virtual Stage Time. -Activities' countdown. -If the event is face-to-face, it will display the timezone from the country in which the event will take place.

Now you will also have the opportunity to choose the time format you prefer for your Virtual Stage. You can choose between 12h or 24h format.

For this you must go to the General Settings tab in the edit option of your event and you will be able to see the Time Format field.

From now on to help you avoid confusion, test emails will come with a label on the front to indicate this. If the platform is configured in English, it will say (Test), if it is in Spanish (Prueba) and if it is in French (Preuve).

We know that it is not enough to be able to track one of your events, but that you also need to know the global results of all your events.

For this reason, now, the Global Dashboard will also allow you to see the number of participants who have entered the Virtual Stage and checked-in in case it is a face-to-face event. The cards now show you which are virtual events and which are face-to-face. You will be able to see the ratio between the number of attendees and the number of events, as well as how to generate custom graphs.

We invite you to give it a go by clicking on the Events tab at the top left part of your screen and choosing the Global Dashboard option.

Every day we are migrating back to face-to-face interactions, and events are not far behind. Many of our clients are already holding hybrid events, where they can host face-to-face and virtual audiences.

So you keep better management of your attendees, now if the event is only in person, the welcome email will include its QR code to be able to check-in. If it is virtual, the welcome email will not include the QR code. 

We know that participants want to know all the relevant information about other participants within the Virtual Stage in order to interact with them. Knowing whether or not they accepted the terms and conditions in the registration form, is not.

This is why this field will no longer be visible within the profile of your participants within the Virtual Stage.

So that you can further customize your custom modules within the Virtual Stage, we have updated our icon library. You can access them when you create a custom module and in the Icon field, select the one you want.

So that your participants can better search for other participants, we have enabled a new "Sort By" option. Just go to the participant module in the Virtual Stage and choose the option that makes your search easier.

In order for you to be able to upload the fonts you want to personalize your website, we have increased the size limit for it. Now you can upload fonts up to 900KB.

Virtuality has allowed us to connect our events with participants from all over the world. In order to make your experiences more user-friendly within the Virtual Stage, it is now possible to enable multiple streaming channels on the same activity. This will allow having streamings in different languages on the same activity, allowing participants to access more easily.

The steps you must follow to enable this feature are:

• Create the activity.
• In the tab "Virtual Stage Configuration" choose the option "Youtube" or "Other".
• In the "Add" button, add the number of streamings you want (Up to 5) and name them to your preference.

In order to facilitate the completion of your participants' registration forms, we have changed the format of the "Birthdate" field. With the new dropdown presentation, the client will be able to fill out their information more quickly.

Understanding our clients' needs and keeping up with the improvements of our collaborators, we have updated the Virtual Stage to integrate the upgrades of Zoom web SDK version 1.8.0.

Functionalities that were previously limited like the breakout rooms are now available within the Virtual Stage. This will allow you to divide your participants into small groups to perform different types of activities without having to access another page.

In order for you to give more detailed information to your participants on their invoices, we have included the payment date.

This will allow you to know exactly when the participant made their payment, this way being able to keep better traceability of your event.

Now your participants will be able to send messages on different chat channels for different purposes. This improvement to the chat module will allow participants to use each chat for its specific purpose hence, not disturbing activities by discussing unrelated topics. For example, you can enable a support channel and there all participants can request help.

To enable these channels you just have to go to "Virtual Stage Settings" and once in there go to the "Modules" tab. Finally in the "Chat" option, you can set up the channels as you see fit.

For your participants not to miss any content that has been discussed in the chats, now they are not deleted. Let's say that you had to log out from the Virtual Stage or simply logged in late for an activity, now you can review what was being discussed prior to your entry to the platform.

Now you can provide a better experience to your participants while they wait for activities or networking meetings to start. With our new "Waiting image" feature you will be able to brand your sponsors, the speakers or simply set up a nice image for your participants and make their wait on the Virtual Stage more pleasant.

For this you'll only need to go to the "User interface" tab and in the "Waiting image" option, insert the one you want.

We understand the need of our clients to customize their participants' experience when setting up networking meetings. With this in mind, you can now insert a background image to give your networking sessions more identity within the Virtual Stage.

You just have to go to the "User interface" tab and in the option "Background image for networking session" insert the one you would like.

We understand how important it is for your sponsors to know the visits participants make to their stands. For this reason, we have included a new tab in the "Sponsors" module that will allow you to know which participants visit each stand.

With the new improvements we made it is now possible to add the website and Instagram field for the speakers. You will also have the possibility that this data is now added to the API.

Now you can send live messages to your participants to inform them about changes in the agenda or simply communicate an announcement regarding the activity that is happening. This new feature of the Event Commander will allow participants to receive information without leaving the Virtual Stage.
