The new version of the xevent module introduces improvements in design and functionality, making it easier to manage speakers, packages, and event details. The main goal is to enhance clarity and provide more options for content customization.
Changes in Speaker Design + New Features
The speaker section design has been redesigned to be clearer and more visually appealing. Additionally, the following options have been added:
-
Add a speaker's logo
-
Display supplementary text in a pop-up
These improvements allow for better presentation of speakers at events and provide more information directly within the interface.
Each contact person can have their own logo set. Once set, the logo will also appear in events that have this contact person as one of the speakers. The additional text can be adjusted in the editing of the event itself, concr. in speaker editing. After setting the additional text, a button will appear on the speaker. Clicking this button will pop up with additional text.
Packages – Limitations by Number of Participants and Time Frame
The new version enables setting a maximum number of participants for individual packages and defining their availability within a specific time frame. With this feature, it is now possible to:
-
Restrict registrations to a selected number of participants
-
Specify the registration period for each package
This functionality helps better manage event capacities and prevent excessive registrations. Additionally, by limiting packages based on participant numbers or availability periods, their exclusivity can be increased, encouraging faster registrations.
Event Detail Adjustments
This change focuses on improving the visual design and flexibility of event management. Enhancements provide greater control over event display and customization:
-
Added the ability to define a custom hero for an event; if not specified, the system will generate one automatically
-
Fixed the date display in the program table – now rendered in the format Thursday, 29. 9.
-
Removed the requirement to fill in content for program blocks, with only the title remaining mandatory
-
Added the option to set the background color of the banner between programs
-
Fixed the banner section with a card to ensure proper rendering according to the page structure
-
Adjustments to the button section – now correctly aligning two buttons without unwanted spacing
