Improve "Submit a Talk" Customisation

I love this feature but it’s currently a bit limited. Some ideas to help take it ot the next level.1. The “you’re in good company” section looks bad pre-launch: - Looks amateur pre-launch with no content showing (also looks bad on the confirmation page after submission). Would be great to be able to hide it, or customise it. - Would love to hide/show this, or be able to customise it perhaps add our own image and change text. 2. Extra CTA doesn’t make sense: - They need to focus on submitting a talk, not booking a place. Should be able to remove this. 3. More Customisation for page design - Would love to include more information for a speaker and use this as our primary intake form. Dream scenario: make it an editable page, or make the form a block that can be easily added to a separate page. - If not, I’d love to be able to add a video to this page, and some custom text explaining the purpose and process. 4. Customise or Hide/Show questions - I appreciate you can’t give full form customisation, you want the forms to lineup to the speaker. The beautiful part about this is getting infromation pre-filled. - To help with customisation though, more control over what questions are shown or hidden could help. I’d ideally love to be able to hide some of the non-compulsary fields, and perhaps add in some custom fields of our own so we can collect additional information more easily. - Addiitonal radio buttons or checkboxes and additional longtext would be easy adds. Even a few would help! 5. Option for host to receive email when submission is received. - I noticed I didn’t get an email when testing out a talk submission. Adding this would be a huge help - maybe it can be toggled on/off like other email settings? 6. Confirmation page needs to be customisable too - Again the same issues, the extra CTA to sign-up for the ticket should be siwtchable. I’d love to put some custom text, or a video here too. Explaining what happens next. And that “content not set” box is back.

Thanks for suggesting this. We’ve shipped an update that makes the public talk submission page and confirmation page editable with Page Builder blocks, and we’ve brought the same approach to sponsor application pages too. You can read more in the changelog here: https://heysummit.userjot.com/updates/p/customize-talk-submi…

I agree on all this suggestion, currently having trouble making this page work as well, if i add sponsors the page will show all the logos on the side which means the form goes lower and lower, which means more scrolling which isn’t ideal. The option of editing the page or creating a new page and embedding the existing form will be great as this will give us more freedom to design the submit a talk page, it is very useful but limited. I am not sure how easy it is to make the form more flexible as well, asking more info and even adding logic to the answers?

Thanks Steve! This all makes a lot of sense. Leave it with us, and we'll get to it as soon as we're able. We are working through all outstanding feedback items as quickly as we can. Obviously, some will be rejected, but the vast majority will be approved and worked on as quickly as we possibly can. I can't guarantee that this Submit a talk Customization one will be worked on immediately, but it makes a lot of sense, so it will be done sooner rather than later.
