Good morning,

I am having difficulty enabling surveys for sessions. I have followed the instructions, but do not see the option to enable surveys. Can you please show me how to do this?

Hi. Go to Program Builder. Edit a session, scroll down to the bottom of the page and there you should see the option to enable survey for the session. Click Yes to enable and then click on Save.

Alternatively, you can use the Bulk Edit tool to bulk update multiple sessions' survey settings at once.

Hi Sarah, I have tried that and do not see the option to enable survey for the session. I am an administrator in our instance of Dryfta and was able to do this last year, but do not see the option to enable survey now.

Hello,


Is it possible to accept payment in multiple currencies? Our event requires tickets in USD as well as Local currency. So I will like to create a separate ticket with a separate USD payment method

Hi. As of now, it is not possible to have multiple currency in a single event.

Hi. Go to Abstract Submissions module and click on the "Abstract Book" menu. This is where you can customize and generate the abstract book PDF.

Is it possible to update questions within an existing session survey?

Yes, of course! Go to Session surveys, edit the survey you want to, and add new questions or edit existing default questions.

Hey there. My org will be using Dryfta for our upcoming conference and I would like to leverage online discussion forums and writing spaces. Is there an existing tutorial or guide for this? I'd love to see them. Gracias! Michael

Hi. We do not have any tutorial for configuring online community because there is not much to learn here! Once you go to the Community area in the backend, you should be able to configure the space on your own. If you need help with anything specific, please feel free to let me know.

Thanks @sarah. Are there no videos or guides for using the Discussion Forums? If not, it would be super helpful. Additionally, if there are any Dryfta super users who have stories or advice to share, I'd love to know. Gracias!

@Michael As of now, there're no video tutorials for using the discussion forum. We can definitely work on one. But it'll take some time before we make it available. I would suggest you give it a try configuring it yourself and if you do come across anything you need help with, then please let me know and I'll be happy to help.

Hello - reviewers are receiving the message 'Review submission's last date has arrived!' - Yet the setting for last review date is 2/29/24 - how to fix?

Can you please ask them to try again now? It was due to a new setting (added an option for late-breaking reviewers to submit reviews, similar to the existing setting for late breaking authors submitting abstracts) under the submission type implemented earlier this week. It must now be working.

Click on the "Rocket" icon in the top navigation bar and then click on Basic Setup. Or go to this direct URL: https://icaa19.dryfta.com/administrator/index.php?option=com_dryfta&view=event&layout=eventbasicsetup


For future questions, you can also submit support tickets by clicking on the Headphone icon in the top navigation bar in your dashboard.

Dear Sarah, I am actually referring to the top navigation bar on every page with menus and sub menus the logo i want to appear on that bar and not above it. Just as it appears here on dryfta community page (don't want this). Is it possible logo appears left to community and no white space at top?

For the SBC WG event, I would like for people with accepted abstracts to accept and confirm that they will be presenting. Is there a way to do this beyond asking people to click withdraw if they can no longer present or change their presenting author to someone else? I'm looking for a third option where they click to confirm all details are accurate and they will be at the conference to present. Thank you!

Go to CSS Manager to add CSS. There're no themes you can choose from. If you want to make any changes, you need to add custom CSS.

Thankyou Sarah! May I know if we can add a java script content for custom button toggle. As I want to add a collapsible text in widget.  I just noticed in code view we can only add the html code for text, ordered/unordered list , image , video, url only.

To add JS, you need to click on the Settings icon in the top navigation bar in the backend and there you can add JS codes. It will need to be approved by a Dryfta Support Person before it can be used.

I need to accept a set of abstracts as poster presentations and a separate set of abstracts as oral presentations. Since both presentation types are very different, I need to be able to add some sort of note in the acceptance letter showing exactly what presentation type they have been accepted for. What is the best way to go about doing this? Thank you!

How can I create a real-time customized report and how can I share this with the LOC Committee? Before it was quite easy (add a tag LOC, add this tag to the contact; done!) but now I can not find how to do this. Or is there another way to share the registration info in real time?
Thanks,

Nicole

The process is still the same. You need to create a tag, select that tag in the custom report, and then assign this tag to the contact whom you want to have access to this report.

Hi, is it possible to copy/insert the abstract review text to the rebuttals for all abstracts that have a review, in one go? Or is it only possible to copy them one by one? Thank you

You need to copy them one by one. That's why we have provided a dedicated rebuttal function so you did not have to do it. Not sure you did not use the rebuttal function instead of creating a custom field to collect rebuttals.

Thanks - it's easy to set up but now how do we use it?  I created a couple of test polls one under my name and one under another speaker.  When I log into the app I can see the poll for the one I created for myself but not the other one.  How do we 'start' the poll during the session - this is a live in person meeting for us, no virtual component.  Does the speaker need to start the poll, or an admin, or is it automatic when the session begins?

Session polls are instantly available. However, to participate in a poll, one needs to check in to the session. The Check-in button will come up 5 minutes before the session begins. You can do a test session to test live polling beforehand.

You can copy this code and paste it wherever WYSIWYG editor is enabled and HTML is supported eg., in your content page or session description. 

Important: Before pasting the code, make sure you have switched to the code view.
