Follow new updates and improvements to HeySummit.
October 2nd 2024
We’ve introduced a new “Copy Broadcast Links” option in the dropdown menu for each talk under the Content > Talks section. This update allows you to manually access and share live broadcast links for hosts, speakers, panelists, and moderators if necessary.
What’s New
A “Copy Broadcast Links” option has been added to the dropdown for each talk, opening a sidebar that lists all live broadcast links for the selected talk.
While HeySummit will still automatically send personalized links to your event participants, this feature provides additional flexibility to view and manually distribute links if needed.
September 30th 2024
We’ve updated the layout for talks where there is a designated speaker and additional panelists, ensuring clear differentiation and hierarchy between roles. This adjustment helps audiences quickly identify the primary speaker while still recognizing the presence of panelists.
What’s New:
Speaker prominence: In talks featuring both a speaker and panelists, the primary speaker is highlighted, with an indication of the number of panelists accompanying them.
Panelist details: Full panelist information remains visible on the talk page sidebar.
This update maintains the standard layout for talks made up solely of panelists, ensuring a consistent user experience.
September 30th 2024
We’ve added a convenient new feature that lets you quickly copy the public broadcast URL for any talk directly from your event dashboard. This streamlines the process of sharing links with speakers or team members, saving time and reducing steps.
What’s New
Easily copy the public broadcast link of any talk to your clipboard via the Content > Talks section of your event dashboard.
This update simplifies link-sharing for more efficient collaboration during your event planning.
September 20th 2024
We’ve enhanced the Content Insights report to provide better visibility into how your content is performing over time. This update introduces two key charts that make it easier to track daily view patterns, helping you assess both live and replay engagement.
What’s New:
Two new charts now appear at the top of the Content Insights report:
Daily (unique) live views
Daily (unique) replay views
These charts give you a clearer picture of how much your content is being watched, letting you monitor viewership trends and identify when engagement starts to taper off.
September 19th 2024
We’re improving how Zoom webinar attendance is tracked. Previously, we would only record if attendees clicked the “Join Now” button, but this often led to incomplete data, especially if attendees joined through other methods. Now, HeySummit will automatically import accurate Zoom attendance statistics directly from Zoom.
What’s New:
Automatic Sync of Zoom Attendance Data: Attendance stats, including quantity of attendees and average duration, are now synced 4 hours after a Zoom webinar ends to ensure the most accurate data from Zoom.
This update ensures more complete and reliable attendance insights for your Zoom webinars. You can view these stats in Reports > Talk Reports and Reports > Content Insights
September 13th 2024
We’ve introduced a flexible update to the hero header landing page component, enhancing how images are displayed. Previously, images were set to take up the full height and overflow off the screen to create a full-screen effect, which could result in unwanted cropping. Now, you can prevent this cropping and maintain the integrity of images, particularly those containing text or screenshots.
What’s New:
A new ‘Prevent Cropping’ mode to display the entire image in its original aspect ratio.
Options to customize the image further by adding vertical padding, rounded corners, and shadows for a refined appearance.
This update gives you more control over how images are presented, allowing for a polished, professional look.
September 13th 2024
We’ve enhanced the attendee checkout experience by giving you more control over how tickets are displayed. You can now choose between two layout modes on the ticket selection page, allowing for a more flexible presentation of your event tickets.
What’s New:
Choose Between Stacked or Grid Layout:
Stacked Layout: Tickets are displayed vertically in a familiar format, with the summary and action buttons in the sidebar.
Grid Layout: Tickets are arranged horizontally in columns, offering a side-by-side comparison for attendees. The summary and action buttons now hover at the bottom right for easier access without disrupting the ticket view.
To access these new settings, simply head to the checkout ticket selection page and press the ‘Edit Page’ button at the bottom left of the screen.
This update provides more customization options to match your event’s needs and improve the attendee browsing experience.
September 12th 2024
We’ve added a new setting that allows you to turn off automatic calendar invites when attendees register for your event. This feature is useful if calendar invites aren’t necessary or if your attendees don’t require them.
What’s New:
You can now disable calendar invites from being sent to attendees upon registration.
This option provides more flexibility in managing communication with your attendees. Note that this new toggle can be found in the Setup > Registration & Checkout Settings form.
September 11th 2024
This update enhances the flexibility of how event perks, such as offers, freebies, and giveaways, are displayed and accessed by attendees. Organizers now have greater control over the presentation and functionality of perks, making it easier to tailor the experience for specific use cases like in-talk CTAs or direct downloads.
What’s New
Override Button Title: You can now customize the button text for each perk (default: “Redeem Offer”).
Hide Perks from Main List: Option to hide a perk from the main list, allowing you to reveal it only during talks via a CTA.
Direct Redemption: Choose to send attendees directly to a redemption URL or file instead of opening the sidebar with instructions.
This update makes it simpler to customize and streamline attendee interactions with your event perks.
September 9th 2024
We’ve introduced two new team permissions to give you greater control over team member roles and access in your events. These permissions allow you to fine-tune what team members can do, ensuring they have the right level of access based on their responsibilities.
What’s New
Event Dashboard Access: You can now control whether a team member can access the event dashboard. If disabled, they will still be able to interact with public event pages and moderate talk chats.
Attendee Check-in Permission: You can specify whether a team member can check in attendees at in-person events using QR codes.
This update allows for more flexible team management, ensuring that each member has access tailored to their role.
