    Hello,

    Do you need a certain module for this?  When I go to menu and search "Event list" I do not get any results.

    Thanks!

    Any chance this will be available for organizations that have both the exhibitor portal and multi-show exhibitor portal modules but not the exhibitor service center?

     

    Thanks,

    Hi Brett, 

    We enhanced the Multi-Show Exhibitor Portal in 23.1 to honor the Event List Configuration for determining the list of events that display in the event list section of the portal.  

    Check that out once you have access to 23.1.  

    Kind regards,

    Eric

    Hello,

    Can we have the ability to link to external websites either by passing live URLs into the Description of the Event when it renders, or offering an option to show a button of some kind where the user can go to the Presenters website...(?)

    Hi Timothy, 

    There is nothing currently on the roadmap to add this ability to the Event Lists. If this is something you want to add to our list of enhancements, please put this on the Product Ideas here. 

    Thank you, 

    Jodi
