Question
Is it possible to create a dedicated speakers' section on a Dryfta-powered event website where speakers can upload CVs and presentation slides, and also see a checklist of tasks they need to complete? How can this be implemented?
Answer
Yes, you can create a dedicated area for speakers on your Dryfta event website with functionality for uploading CVs, presentation slides, and a checklist to track task completion. To do this, follow these steps:
1. **Speaker Checklist:** Enable the "ToDos" menu under Website & Apps > Website Designer > Navigation Menus > Dashboard Menus. This menu displays all tasks assigned to a speaker. Then, create and assign tasks specifically to speakers under People > Task Manager, targeting individual users or the "Speaker" user group.
2. **Uploading Presentation Slides:** Create a file upload field for slides via Abstracts & Reviews > Submission Questions. Configure this upload field to be visible only for accepted submissions, allowing speakers to directly upload their presentations.
3. **Speaker Bios and CVs:** Add additional fields, such as bio text fields and file upload fields for CVs, to the Speaker Registration Form found under People > Speaker Hub.
This setup will provide speakers a centralized area to manage their profile, upload necessary documents, and track their to-do items efficiently.
