The Settings page holds an event’s basic information; the two optional feature modules and the event’s audit trail complete the picture of how an event is administered.

​
Basics and schedule

  • Basics — the event’s name and description.
  • Schedule — start time, end time and the event’s time zone. Times are local to the event in that zone.
The agenda is anchored to the start date. Changing the start date clears every existing agenda session — the console asks you to confirm (“Change date and clear agenda”) before applying it. Settle the date before building the agenda; see Create an event.

​
Status

An event is Draft, Published or Archived. Draft events are invisible to the public — the public address answers “not found” until you publish. Publishing and unpublishing live on the Event page section, next to the public URL they control.

​
Optional feature modules

Two modules are off by default and enabled per event, so a plain conference never sees their pages:

Exhibition

The exhibition side of an event: the exhibitor roster and badge codes, booth models and allocation, and service & material orders.

Housing

Hotel accommodation: hotels and room types, per-night room blocks with pickup tracking, and each attendee’s stay.

​
Enabling a module

1

Open the module in the event navigation

A switched-off module’s pages — for example Housing → Hotels — show an enable wall instead of content. Deep links meet the same wall.
2

Read what it adds, then enable

The wall describes the module and has one button: Enable. Clicking it adds the module’s pages to this event’s navigation immediately.
Enabling is per event and one-way — there is no off switch, because a module in use accumulates records (exhibitors, stays) that must stay answerable. That is why enabling is a deliberate wall rather than a casual toggle. Other events in the Business Unit are unaffected.

​
Event-level audit log

The event’s Audit log page records every console operation on this event: ticket types, redemption codes, perks, forms, registrations, exhibition and housing alike. Each entry shows the time, the actor, the action and the subject, with full details a click away. Coverage is automatic — every change made through the console is recorded, including in modules added later. You can filter by subject, action, actor or time range to answer “who changed this, and when”. The Business Unit and the organization each have wider views of the same trail — see Audit logs.

​
Rules to know

  • Changing the start date clears the agenda, after an explicit confirmation.
  • Draft means invisible: no public page, no registrations, no way to probe that the event exists.
  • Exhibition and Housing are enabled per event from their enable wall in the navigation; enabling cannot be undone.
  • The audit log is complete by construction — there is no way to change an event from the console without leaving an entry.
