Manage Conference Menu

Your inVision project is configured using the Manage Conference option within the Settings menu.

This will bring you to the Manage Conference settings page, which has multiple tabs to set different configuration settings, including:

  • General Settings - such as the name and start date of the conference, notifications, enabling functionality such as public links and self-registration.

  • Email - to define email templates and subscriptions.

  • Manage Data - to manage project data, such as categories, team views, and project links. As well as conference specific data such as event groups, date labels and nicknames.

  • Manage Users - to create and manage users and invitation requests.

General Settings

The general settings tab allows you to set up some of the key items for your conference.

  • Conference Settings - Create the name, short name, start/end dates, and timezone of your conference. These are important for the schedule functionality to work correctly.

  • Login from Another Device - This setting creates a notification on the conference home page to simplify logins from a user's mobile device.

  • Document Upload Notification - Enter an email address of the person that should receive notifications when a user uploads a new document.
