Login (Speaker Portal)

Access:  (Event) > Manage > Speakers and Sessions > Speaker Portal > Pages > Login >  (edit)

Jump down to:  ||  Login Details  ||  Fields  ||  Custom Layout  ||

On this page you configure the Login page the speaker sees in the Speaker Portal.

From the Login page, a new speaker can submit a proposal, or an existing speaker can log in to their personalized portal. (This can include using SSO, if configured for your system.)

Example:

Login Details

• Close Proposal Period – If selected, potential speakers can no longer submit proposals.

• Show the Site Header on Login Page – If selected, the site header (selected on the Branding configuration page) is shown on the Login page.

• Click Browse to select and upload an image from your computer.
  Note: For best performance this graphic should be at least 2000 pixels wide by 1600 pixels tall, and should not be more than 400KB in size.

• Choose the Login Position – Select the image representing your preference.

Login & Proposal Fields

These elements appear on the Login page with the default text unless you enter values for them. (There is no need to re-enter the default values.)

• Proposal Prompt – The prompt text above the Proposal Button.
  Default = "If you are a speaker looking to submit a Session Proposal for this event please click here."

• Proposal Button – The label on the button for submitting a proposal.
  Default = "SUBMIT A PROPOSAL"

• Sign-In Setup – Select which one of these three sign-in options is to be available to speakers signing in to the Speaker Portal.
  
  All three options are available for selection if Single Sign-On (SSO) is enabled for the event (on Plan > Configure > Options), and an SSO connection has been configured for your event (by an Administrator on Plan > Configure > Single Sign-On). Otherwise, only the first one is available; the other two may be visible, but cannot be selected.

• • ID & Password – The speaker must enter their username and password. No SSO options.
    If you select this, then you can customize the Sign In Button – The label on the button to log in once the speaker has entered their Username and Password. (Default = "Sign In".)
    The fields for the speaker's Username and Password are illustrated.

  • ID & Password + SSO – (Available only if SSO enabled for the event.) The speaker may log in either with their username and password or by using a single sign-on option.

  • • If you select this, you must then select which single sign-on(s) are available (from those configured for the event on Plan > Configure > Single Sign-On).
      For example, you might enable them to log in using their LinkedIn credentials.

    • You can also customize an SSO Prompt to appear above those choices.

  • SSO ONLY – (Available only if SSO enabled for the event.) The attendee must sign in using a single sign-on option.
    If you select this, you must then select which single sign-on(s) are available (from those configured for the event on Plan > Configure > Single Sign-On).

Note: When an SSO option is used, the button seen by the speaker on the Login page is as configured (by an Administrator) at the account level for that SSO (on Account Settings > Management > Single Sign-On).

Custom Layout Area

Add and format your text here. Most of the buttons should be self-explanatory, except  (Source code), which  enables you to edit the HTML code directly instead of using the WYSIWYG editor.

The position of the text on the speakers' actual Login page is determined by your choice under Choose the Login Position above.

• Upload an Image – To add an image to the login page:

1. 1. Click the spot in the layout editor  where you want to place the image.

   2. In the Upload an image ....field, click Browse, and select the file on your computer.

   3. The image is displayed immediately in the layout. (There isn't a separate "upload" step.)

   • To resize the image, click it in the editor, and drag the handles on its corners (or sides).

   • To delete an image, click it in the layout, and press the Delete key.
