How to create and schedule a session of abstracts in Dryfta

Last updated Jul 21, 2026

Question

How can I create a session that groups multiple individual abstracts (sub-sessions) before scheduling it in Dryfta? Also, when scheduling a pre-formed panel session, do the abstracts within automatically get scheduled at the same time?

Answer

In Dryfta, you can create a session and select multiple individual abstracts to be part of this session. 

To do this, create the session first and add the desired abstracts as sub-sessions within it.

If you are not ready to schedule the session immediately, leave the date and time slot fields blank. This will keep the session listed under the 'Unscheduled Sessions' tab until you assign a schedule to it. 

When you schedule the session by setting a date and time, by default, all abstracts (sub-sessions) within that session will share the same time slot as the session. However, you retain the option to edit the time slot individually for each abstract if needed. 

This process is similar to working with pre-formed panel sessions, where scheduling the panel session also schedules all its constituent abstracts at that time slot.
