How to Set Up Your Schedule for the First Time in Eventify
The Schedule feature is the backbone of your event program. It lets you build a structured agenda across multiple days and parallel tracks, assign speakers and locations, and let attendees browse and RSVP to sessions from the app.
How to access: Dashboard → Content → Schedule
Before You Start
Your event must have a Start Date and End Date configured before you can add schedule dates. Go to your event settings to set these if you have not already.
All schedule dates must fall within the event's start and end date range.
First-Time Setup Checklist
- Go to Dashboard → Content → Schedule.
- Click Add Date.
- Enter the date in YYYY-MM-DD format (e.g., 2026-06-15). The date must fall within your event's configured start and end dates.
- Click Save. Repeat for each day of your event.
- Select a date, then click Add Track.
- Enter a Track Name (e.g., Main Stage, Workshop Room A, Marketing Track).
- Set the Display Order to control left-to-right column position in the schedule view.
- Optionally assign User Groups to restrict which attendees can see this track.
