Website
Create and edit your conference's public website. Pick a template (or start from scratch) the first time, then customize everything in the website builder.
Purpose
The Website sub-tab is where you build and maintain your conference's public website. The first time you open it, you choose a starting template from a gallery (or start from a blank canvas). After that, the sub-tab opens the website builder, where you customize pages, content, and styling.
When you use it
Use the Website sub-tab when you're standing up your conference's public page for the first time, and any time afterward to update it: refreshing content, adding pages, or adjusting the design as your conference evolves.
Walkthrough
- 1
Open the Communications tab and select the Website sub-tab.
- 2
If your site isn't set up yet, you'll see the Website Builder setup screen with a Choose a Template gallery. Each card shows the template's name, description, and a color preview.
- 3
Click a template card to select it (the gallery defaults to Workshop Modern), then click Use Template to create your site from it, or click Start from Scratch to begin with a blank canvas. You can customize everything later either way.
- 4
Once initialized, the sub-tab opens the website builder, where you edit pages, sections, content, and styling for your conference site.
- 5
Return to this sub-tab any time to keep editing; it re-opens directly into the builder with your existing site loaded.
Tips
Don't overthink the template choice. It only sets your initial pages and color scheme. You can change colors, content, and layout afterward in the builder, so pick whichever is closest and refine from there.
This sub-tab is for building the site. Your conference's public visibility follows its status: the Dashboard's Conference Status card shows whether the page reads "Public" or "Preview Only" (Draft conferences are preview-only).
This sub-tab is the entry point; the builder itself (templates, pages, sections, click-to-edit, color themes, and publishing) is covered in the Website Builder guide. Start with Website Builder.
