Rich Abstract Editor

We are proud to present the new Abstract Form which provides content editors that support Markdown and LaTeX. Authors will write their abstracts in Indico, including LaTeX formulas, and they will see a live preview in a panel just below the editor. Of course, all the PDFs generated by Indico will also render Markdown and LaTeX.

Brand new Registration Form Edition

The registration form is one of the most used modules but edition was not simple in the former versions of Indico. We have developed a very intuitive and simple interface to edit and create registration forms, simply using drag&drop and inline editing. Learn more from here.

E-Ticket for Conference Attendees

This new module will enable the generation of e-tickets for each participant of the event. Each e-ticket is a PDF with basic information and a QR code. This QR code can be scanned at the Registration Desk in order to check the participant in. How to scan that QR code? You can simply use our new mobile app Indico Check-in (download it from here). Learn more about this module from here.

Offline website creation

This old folk of Indico has come back to stay. It can be found in the tools section of every event and it provides the option to request an offline version of your event. This means that all organisers can download to their computer their events and navigate them offline. They can even browse the uploaded files without Internet Connection!

More in Dashboard

Indico is trying to help you find the events that you might be interested in. That is way that you will now see, in your Dashboard, a list of categories you might be interested in. If you find any of them interesting, add them to your favourites! Check it out right now from your dashboard.

Vidyo News

• Vidyo Search: From now on, one does not need to create a new Vidyo Room for each meeting. You can simply search for your own Vidyo rooms and attach them to your event.
• Access and Moderator PINs: From now on, the acess and moderator PINs that one can define for a Vidyo Room are masked for security reasons and cannot be displayed on the event page. Moderators can always reset the defined PIN, but need themselves to distribute the PIN among the relevant participants.

More

• New URLs: take a quick look at your browser's URL bar. Indico URLs are now beautiful and short!
• Extra configuration parameters can be found in the Conference/Layout/Menu/Timetable option. Conference organisers can choose if the timetable will be rendered by default using the regular or detailed view, and if it should use the normal or 'by room' layout.
• We have also added a new extra field type to the Abstract Form: dropdown menus can now be added to the form as an extra option.
• User search will ignore accents from now on. No more problems when searching for "González" since it will find the same results as "Gonzalez".
