Timetable</h1> <p>This part will quick-start you on creating your first meeting timetable. We will cover the most basic actions and settings in order to get a basic meeting timetable up and running. If you want to learn about all the possible options and features, we suggest going through a more comprehensive tutorial that can be found in the section about conferences <a href="../../conferences/timetable/">here</a>.</p> <h3 id="a-basic-meeting-timetable">A basic meeting timetable</h3> <p>A typical meeting timetable might look something like this:</p> <p><img alt="" src="../../assets/meetings/timetable/finished_timetable.png" /></p> <p>Each one of the timetable entries is a so-called contribution. A contribution is the most basic element of a timetable. It can be thought of as a talk or a discussion item with one or more speakers. Even though meetings are often made up of only contributions, it is possible to add other entries like breaks and session blocks (covered in detail <a href="../../conferences/timetable/">here</a>).</p> <h3 id="contributions">Contributions</h3> <p>To schedule a contribution, first navigate to <em>Timetable</em> in the management area of your event. This opens the top-level view of the timetable, which is currently empty:</p> <p><img alt="" src="../../assets/meetings/timetable/timetable_open.png" /></p> <p>To create a new contribution, click on <em>Add new</em> in the top right corner and select <em>Contribution</em> from the dropdown menu.</p> <p><img alt="" src="../../assets/meetings/timetable/contribution_select.png" /></p> <p>A new dialogue window will open where you must fill at least the title, start time and the duration of the contribution. You can add speakers in the <em>People</em> field. Speakers will be displayed under the contribution in the timetable.</p> <p><img alt="" src="../../assets/meetings/timetable/contribution_create.png" /></p> <p>If you want to allow the speakers to <a href="../minutes/">add minutes</a> or <a href="../material/">upload files</a>, make sure the <em>Submitter</em> permission is switched on:</p> <p><img alt="" src="../../assets/meetings/timetable/submitter.png" /></p> <p>When you are done filling in the data, click <em>Save</em> to schedule the contribution. Once created, you can drag the contribution up down in the timetable to change its start time.</p> <p>You can repeat this step to create a contribution for every discussion item in your meeting. To learn more about the timetable, you can continue reading <a href="../../conferences/timetable/">here</a>.</p> </article> </div> </div> </main> <footer class="md-footer"> <nav class="md-footer__inner md-grid" aria-label="Footer" > <a href="../creating/" class="md-footer__link md-footer__link--prev" aria-label="Previous: Creating a Meeting" rel="prev"> <div class="md-footer__button md-icon"> <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 24 24"><path d="M20 11v2H8l5.5 5.5-1.42 1.42L4.16 12l7.92-7.92L13.5 5.5 8 11h12Z"/></svg> </div> <div class="md-footer__title"> <span class="md-footer__direction"> Previous </span> <div class="md-ellipsis"> Creating a Meeting </div> </div> </a> <a href="../minutes/" class="md-footer__link md-footer__link--next" aria-label="Next: Adding minutes to a Meeting" rel="next"> <div class="md-footer__title"> <span class="md-footer__direction"> Next </span> <div class="md-ellipsis"> Adding minutes to a Meeting </div> </div> <div class="md-footer__button md-icon"> <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 24 24"><path d="M4 11v2h12l-5.5 5.5 1.42 1.42L19.84 12l-7.92-7.92L10.5 5.5 16 11H4Z"/></svg> </div> </a> </nav> <div class="md-footer-meta md-typeset"> <div class="md-footer-meta__inner md-grid"> <div class="md-copyright"> Made with <a href="https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Material for MkDocs </a> </div> </div> </div> </footer> </div> <div class="md-dialog" data-md-component="dialog"> <div class="md-dialog__inner md-typeset"></div> </div> <script id="__config" type="application/json">{"base": "../..", "features": ["content.code.copy", "content.action.edit", "content.action.view", "navigation.footer"], "search": "../../assets/javascripts/workers/search.208ed371.min.js", "translations": {"clipboard.copied": "Copied to clipboard", "clipboard.copy": "Copy to clipboard", "search.result.more.one": "1 more on this page", "search.result.more.other": "# more on this page", "search.result.none": "No matching documents", "search.result.one": "1 matching document", "search.result.other": "# matching documents", "search.result.placeholder": "Type to start searching", "search.result.term.missing": "Missing", "select.version": "Select version"}}</script> <script src="../../assets/javascripts/bundle.51198bba.min.js"></script> </body> </html>
