Each VCD event will have a ‘Content Hub’ which contains all the on demand content for sessions, such as abstracts, videos, PDFs, and more. Attendees can use the content hub as a resource pre-event, during the event, as well as post-event. Within the content hub, attendees can search for specific session content, filter by type of content, presentation time, and/or speakers, as well as add take notes and add items to their library.

Event managers can manage the content hub from the admin area of the VCD for the purpose of adding content (posters), deleting existing content, or changing the permissions for content.

Note: Attendees can each build their own “Library” of content as they work in the VCD and refer to this library at any point in time.

Creating posters

While abstract content in the VCD carries over from Eventsforce, event managers can create posters directly within the VCD. To create a new poster, take the following steps:

  1. Login to the admin portal of the VCD

  2. Go to Content Hub > Create

  3. Add the poster details (title, description, tags, location, groups)

  4. Click “Submit” to create the poster

  5. Select “Sessions” along the top to associate the poster with sessions

  6. Select “Collateral” along the top to add collateral associated with the poster

Managing and amending content

Event managers can manage the content that pulls over from Eventsforce sessions and abstracts within the admin portal of the VCD. Actions that can be taken by event managers include:

  • Deleting content

  • Changing permissions (visibility)

  • Updating content (adding tags, methods, location, etc)

  • Changing linked sessions

  • Adding/removing collateral to content (documents, photos, links, etc)

  • Generating QR code for PDF version of content or SVG version of content

To take any of the above actions for items in the content hub, take the following steps:

  1. Login to the admin portal of the VCD

  2. Go to Content Hub > List

  3. Click on the poster name (highlighted in blue)

  4. Update any of the poster details as needed (title, description, tags)

  5. Click “Submit” to save changes

  6. Select “Sessions” along the top to update the sessions associated with the poster

  7. Select “Collateral” along the top to edit the collateral assigned to the poster
