After marking participants as speakers, it's crucial to create a dedicated Speakers page on your event website to showcase their expertise and increase participant engagement. By highlighting your speakers, you can attract a larger audience and enhance the overall event experience.
In this article, we will guide you through the process of creating a speakers page using the b2match Organizer's Tool. Follow these simple steps to create an impactful speakers page that will surely attract a large audience.
How can I create a speakers page?
First, access Configuration from the left sidebar of the Organizer’s Tool.
From the Configurations left sidebar, locate Event Components and click on it. This section displays all the components visible in the navigation bar of your event website.
Click on the Add component button located in the upper right corner of the Event Components screen.
From the available options, choose the Speakers component and click Next to proceed.
In the Name field, enter a suitable name for the speakers page. You can name it simply Speakers, but feel free to choose a name that best represents the purpose of the page, even if it differs from the term Speakers.
Note: For multilingual events, ensure that the selected language in the upper bar matches the language you are naming the component in to avoid any inconsistencies.
Configure the visibility settings for the speakers page by selecting the participant types who should have access to it. If you wish to enable unregistered website visitors to view your speakers, activate the Guest Mode toggle switch.
Note: By default, Guest Mode is enabled. You must first disable the Guest Mode if you want to configure the visibility settings for specific participant types.
Once you have finalized the component configuration, click on the Create button located in the bottom right corner of the screen.
How does the speakers page look like?
After creating the speakers page, click on the Go to Event Website in the upper bar of the Organizer's Tool. This will redirect you to the live event website where you can see how the speakers page looks like to your participants.
On the event website, access the Speakers page from the event navigation bar.
Speakers are showcased through individual cards on the speakers page. These cards present essential information about each speaker, including their profile picture, first and last name, job position, and organization. By default, the speakers are sorted alphabetically based on their last names.
To gain further insights into a specific speaker, simply click on their name on the speaker card. This action will open their comprehensive profile, where you can access detailed information about the sessions in which they will be speaking. Additionally, you can also download the speakers presentations.
