Timetable Grid

How do I present my Agenda as a timetable?

There are two options to display your agenda, either as a list of sessions, or as a timetable grid.

The timetable grid means the columns are either the Locations or Tracks in your event.

To enable this page in the agenda app do the following

  • Navigate into the Agenda App publication configuration
  • In General Configuration, scroll to ‘Timetable Page’
  • Choose whether you want the columns to show Tracks or Locations. You can also choose the order the items are shown, and hide any tracks/locations you don’t want to show.
Note
If you choose ‘Tracks’ then also ensure the Tracks you want to publish are included in the ‘Tracks’ section of ‘General Configuration’.
  • Save and publish your publication

How do I show multiple sessions taking place in the same location at the same time?

  1. Navigate to Agenda Planning  >  Locations
  2. Create an additional Location for the extra session(s)
  3. Schedule the sessions in the additional Location
  4. Navigate to Publish Agenda  > Lineup Ninja Agenda App > Configure
  5. Expand the Timetable Page section, scroll to Locations and untick the checkbox to hide the new Location
  6. Scroll to Merge Locations and merge the new Location into the original Location

What colours are used for the Sessions?

By default, the Track colors are used for the background colour of the sessions.

To optionally choose to show the colour of the Location, navigate to your Agenda App configuration, scroll to ‘Timetable Page’ and change the below question:

Color options for the timetable Color options for the timetable

If a session has multiple Tracks then the colours will be applied depending on whether you are showing Tracks or Locations in the grid:

  • If you are showing Tracks then the background color will be the color of that Track only
  • If you are showing Locations then the track colors will be shown in the left hand border, and the background of the session will be grey

How do I show Speaker Names?

To optionally show Speaker Names in the timetable grid:

  1. Navigate to your Agenda App configuration and scroll to ‘Timetable Page’
  2. Change the below question:

Speaker options for the timetables Speaker options for the timetables

Note

If you are choosing to show Speaker Roles, these will also be shown.

How do I add logos to the columns?

The columns in the timetable represent either Tracks or Locations. To help your user navigate the agenda you can add logos to the columns:

  • Navigate to Agenda Planning  >  Locations / Tracks
  • Click the name of the item you wish to set a logo for
  • Scroll down to ‘Files’
  • From the ‘Type of Image or File’, choose ‘Location Logo’ or ‘Track Logo’
  • Upload the logo
  • Repeat for other Tracks or Locations
  • Navigate to ‘Publish Agenda’
  • Click ‘Publish’ for your Agenda App to publish the new logos

What are the recommendations for logos?

We make the following recommendations:

  • Use the same height and width for all logos, this will ensure a consistent presentation
  • Upload a high resolution image, we will automatically scale it appropriately
  • Avoid logos with a high level of detail as they may look unclear when scaled down to fit on the timetable
