Advanced Programme Logic

The Advanced Programme Logic feature operates through a simple yet effective tagging system:

Your consultant needs to activate this setting before you can begin. Please ask them to do so in order to start setting up the Advanced Programme Logic.

What is Advanced Programme Logic?

Advanced Programme Logic lets you control which programme items are visible to different groups of attendees. Assign session tags to programme items and user tags to attendees, then link those tags together. Attendees will only see the programme items that match their user tag, making the programme more relevant and easier to navigate for everyone.

Programme items of the type "Plenary" do not support Advanced Programme Logic. Plenary sessions are mandatory for all attendees, therefore these sessions are always visible and cannot be restricted to specific user groups.

Example in action

Your event takes place over three days, but not every attendee joins all three days. With Advanced Programme Logic, you can make sure each attendee only sees the programme items for the day(s) they are actually attending. This makes the programme more relevant to them. For this I will need to:

• Create user tags for each event day (i.e. 'Day 1', 'Day 2' and 'Day 3')

• Create session tags for each event day using the Advanced Programme Logic setting (i.e. 'Day 1', 'Day 2' and 'Day 3')

• Choose to include or exclude the relevant user tag

• Assign the created session tags to the corresponding programme items

• Assign the created user tags to the relevent users

• Now, users will only be able to see the programme items that are relevant to them

Important: When a programme item has multiple session tags linked to it, a user will also need to have all of the corresponding user tags in order to see the programme item. This only goes for the 'Include' field that is explained later.

For example:

• The session 'Workshop 1' has session tags 'Day 1' and 'Workshop'

• A user with only the user tag 'Day 1' will not see this programme item in the app

• A user with both the user tag 'Day 1' and 'Workshop' will see this programme item

How does Advanced Programme Logic work?

The Advanced Programme Logic feature operates by linking sessions tags and user tags together. This can be setup from within the Admin panel:

1. If you haven't created user tags yet, go to Users > All users > User tags > '+ New tag'. Add all relevant user tags here.

2. Go to Settings > Advanced Programme Logic

3. Click on '+ New tag'

4. Fill in the required information in the 'General' tab.

   Setting	Explanation
   Name of session tag*	Type the name of the session tag
   Order (lower numbers appear higher in the list)	If you create many tags, it can be useful to set the order numbers to keep a nice overview. This is not mandatory
   Maximum number of subscriptions on this tag	If multiple sessions have the same session tag, you can limit the amount of sessions with this tag that users can subscribe to. Leave empty for no limit.

5. Click on the 'Advanced' tab and fill in the required information

   Setting	Explanation
   Should this tag be hidden in the app?	Select this checkbox if don't want the session tag to show on the paage of the programme item in the app
   Include	Select the user tag linked to the users who should be able to see sessions with this tag. That means only users with the selected user tag will see the sessions with this session tag in their programme overview.
   Exclude	Select the user tag linked to the users who should not be able to see sessions with this tag. That means users with the selected user tag will not see the sessions with this session tag in their programme overview. Users without this tag will be able to see this programme item.

   Adding tags to the 'Include' section will automatically exclude all other usertags and vice versa. You don't have to fill in both fields

6. Click 'Save changes'

7. Make sure you connect the session tag you just created to the relevant sessions in the programme overview (Content > Programme). Also give all users the relevant user tag(s).
