Create and manage Adobe Connect Events and the required AEM templates. Manage participants, invitations, campaign tracking and so on.

Create and modify templates and the Event Catalog

Adobe Connect event pages, Event Catalog, and emails are created using pre-defined templates. Before you can create an event page, create a template to address your requirements. Multiple templates can be designed, stocked, and shared in advance, to address the varied needs of an organization.

Create templates

You get more flexibility in designing pages, catalogs, and emails for events if you use templates to create them. Before you create an event, you can create a template to capture requirements for that event that are generic and applicable to other events. You can design and stock multiple templates in advance to address the varied needs of your organization. You can use pre-defined templates (and modify them further if necessary) for event pages, event catalogs, and emails.

You can create customized event page templates, including a landing page, a speaker information page, a registration page, and a login page. While two event page templates are included, Event Managers and Event Administrators can create any number of custom-branded templates by using several rich components such as images, tables, charts, carousels, and more.

Event Managers can create private templates and Event Administrators can create shared templates to address the various requirements of your organization. Typically, shared templates are created to ensure consistency and branding for all of your organization’s communications.

Lưu ý:

With Adobe Connect 12.4, start building responsive event pages and event catalogs. The new responsive templates are based on enhanced page components to take advantage of Adobe Experience Manager 6.5. In addition to responsive pages that adapt to different screen sizes, from phones to desktops, you can also take advantage of additional fonts introduced in this release.

Learn more about the new capabilities of event management templates from Create and edit Adobe Connect events for Adobe Connect 12.4.

To avoid interfering with the recently published events and catalogs, you can continue to use the existing templates. However, since the outdated templates are being deprecated and will soon be withdrawn, we advise you to start using these enhanced templates.

You can clone the new enhanced templates and customize them to suit your needs as before.  

Learn how to manage the usage of the existing and new enhanced templates and catalog from Manage Catalog and Templates.

  1. Go to Event Templates or Email Templates, in Event Management tab.

  2. Click the Edit templates link against Event Template or Email Template option.

  3. In the AEM instance launched, click Shared Template link in Event or Email Templates. Click Create New Template button in the upper-right corner of the screen, to create either an event template or an email template, respectively.

  4. Provide a template name, select the Access type, and select a base template.

AEM components to design Adobe Connect templates

Adobe Connect uses AEM technology to design and lay out email and event templates and Event Catalog. The designed templates can be shared and access control governs their usage. Adobe Connect also offers AEM components customized for Adobe Connect users and administrators. These AEM components can be dragged onto the template area and configured to quickly design and layout templates.

Lưu ý:

Creating an Event in Adobe Connect

Adobe Systems Inc.

Start the Event wizard

To start the Event wizard, click the Event Management tab in Adobe Connect Central, navigate to the event folder, and click New Event.

Lưu ý:

To quickly copy settings from an existing event, select it and click Duplicate Event. Then enter a unique name, URL, and start and end dates for the event.

Enter event information

On the first page of the Event wizard, select the event template. Then, enter background details about the event, such as name, summary, and detailed information. The event template, event name, time zone, and language are required. Other fields are optional.

The various event pages are created using AEM. AEM server used to host your pages depends on whether you are using hosted Adobe Connect or your own Adobe Connect server. For the field ‘Host Event URLs on’, choose the destination of the Event Pages. To host the Event Pages on your own AEM server, select External AEM Server. This option is available on the accounts that are already linked with an External AEM server.

To allow for simplified event registration, you can create events that do not require a password. Participants can log in to such events using just their email address. To enable users to register for an event without them having to provide a password, select the Register Without Password option when creating an event. It helps non-registered, guest users log in easily, by entering their email address. Users who are registered on the Adobe Connect server, are required to log in using their user name and password for all events.

If allowed by Account Administrators, you can select Register with Social Profiles to allow users to register for event using their Facebook or Google+ accounts. The option to use social profiles to register and log in, is available only on hosted offering of Adobe Connect and not on the on-premise deployments.

While creating an event, you can categorize the event as a Live event or an On-demand event. In a Live event, a presenter conducts a meeting or a seminar, or leads a virtual classroom. In an On-demand event, users can access training courses, curriculum, or content from the Adobe Content library. Normally, Live events are scheduled in advance and participants join for a stipulated time. On-demand events are for presenting pre-recorded content—users can log in to On-demand events at their convenience. If you create an on-demand event, you can present content either from the Adobe Connect library or from a training course or curriculum. If you create a live event, you can present an Adobe Connect meeting, seminar, or virtual classroom.

You can use banners on event pages and in the event emails to make the content more appealing. You can provide small and large images for banners. Recommended size for small images is 560x230 pixels and for large images is 740x300 pixels.

You can provide the following information about the speaker. Information about the speaker is added to the emails and the event pages.

  • The name of the speaker

  • An image of the speaker—the image can be a photograph or any other image (for example a company logo)

  • A brief overview of the speaker

  • A detailed overview of the speaker

 

Event Administrators can apply the Featured Event tag to display an event in the Featured Events section of the Event Catalog. You can also add a logo, banner images, an image for the speaker, and details about the speaker. You can edit event information after you create the event.

Lưu ý:

If you change the event start date to a future date, participants and presenters can still enter the meeting room at any time.

Select content

Content for an event must exist before you create an event. After you select a type of content, you cannot change the content type. You can, however, substitute different content of the same type. For example, if you create an event based on a seminar, you can substitute a different seminar for the one you originally used when creating the event.

Create registration

You determine the questions that participants must answer on the registration form. The information creates a guest profile for tracking the participant. Four mandatory questions are preselected on the Create Registration form. They include E‑mail address, Password, Retype password, and Name. You can select any of the other questions.

Lưu ý:

When an event is created for registration without Password - Password, Retype password are dimmed and unavailbale.

For events that include guests (for example, people who find your event listing on your organization’s public website), you may obtain the company name and URL for screening purposes. For example, if the applicant works for a competitor, consider denying access. Select the Enable Campaign Tracking option to report on registrations by campaign source.

Customize registration

You have a considerable flexibility in designing a registration page for an event, including custom multiple-choice, short-answer, and yes/no questions. You can also change the order of questions and delete questions at any time.

Event Administrators can introduce a join button in the registration confirmation email. Instead of the long, personalized link to join an event, the registrant sees only the Join button.

Select event participants

For an event limited to registered guests and accepted users, you can select users and groups to be participants or presenters in your event. These users are able to log in to the event directly. Uninvited users who have the URL to the event meeting room can attempt to log in as guests. As a host, you can grant admission to guests on an individual basis.

E‑mail options

The penultimate step in the Event wizard is to send participants email invitations containing the date, time, duration, and URL of the event. You can make your event emails more appealing and eye-catching by using rich HTML-based emails. You can design different templates for different types of emails. For example, an event invitation can contain information about the date, time, duration, and URL of the event. You can send invitations as you create the event. Alternatively, you can create and send the invitations later.

Define triggers to send various notifications to users, such as event reminders and registration approval notifications. You can either set a specific date for these notifications or set a relative date.

You can create up to four custom triggers. You can select a template for a custom trigger and set up recipient groups and email aliases to which users can send queries. You can set a specific date for the custom trigger or a date relative to the date you create the event.

To ensure that you configured email triggers correctly, send a test mail to your email ID before you publish the event.

Campaign IDs

You can add a campaign ID to use with the email options for the event to track email campaigns. For more information, see Use campaign tracking with an event.

You can preview registration and event pages, modify them (for example, by changing their logos), and make them public.

Change event content

You can replace event content only with content of the same type, for example, you can replace one meeting with another. You cannot add any new content to the Content library from here. You can select only existing content for your event.

If you purchased Adobe Presenter, you can publish presentations from PowerPoint to the Content library for your event. To use an existing presentation for an event, republish it to a different folder. If you do not, the reporting information for the original presentation is merged with the event-specific report data. In addition, event-specific data is carried over into future reports for the original presentation.

Note: For content other than courses and curriculum, the system tracks only whether the user has viewed the event. For example, users who view only the first slide in a presentation are reported as having attended the event. In contrast, users who view only a few of the slides in a course or curriculum are not reported as having attended. In other words, users must complete and return the course to appear on the report as attendees. (Also, you can view Time In and Time Out information by viewing the event By Attendee report.)

Note: The duration is not reported in the Event Reports when on-demand recording content is chosen as the presentation type.

 

  1. Click the Event Management tab in Adobe Connect Central.
  2. Navigate to the desired folder.
  3. Click the event you want to change.
  4. At the top of the Event Information page, click the Select Content link.

    • Click the appropriate link at the top of the tab (for example, Shared Content if you are replacing content).

    • Scroll to the folder or file that you want. Either select the check box to the left of it or click the folder or file, as appropriate. If you are in the Content library, click Up One Level to navigate to a higher folder directory.

  6. Click Save.

Change event templates

You can replace an existing template for your event landing page with a predefined AEM template. In addition, you can edit a predefined template in AEM and use the customized template for your event landing page.

To change an event template:

  2. Click Event Templates.

  3. Select the required event template.

To edit a template, click Edit Template and edit the template in the design view using AEM Sidekick components.

Change event email options

You can change email options for any of the email notification, reminders, or follow‑up messages before they are sent. (Some messages are selected by default.)

You can customize an email message. In several types of messages, you can attach a Microsoft Outlook Calendar (iCal) entry that adds the event to the recipient’s Outlook Calendar. You can also request responses from the participants. Select the Request Response check box, when customizing the email. The option is selected by default. Only Microsoft Outlook users on Windows can send back a response to the Event organizers.

When you customize an email form, there are several fields in curly brackets ({}) in the Message Body area. In general, do not change any of the fields, unless you have a specific reason. The curly brackets contain variables that the system replaces with actual values that are specific to your event. For example, the event-time field displays the start time you specified. You may want to change the time to 15 minutes earlier to ensure that the actual event begins on time. To change the time, type the new time in the event-time field.

Lưu ý:

You can add any of the extra runtime fields to the email message. {user-email} is the email address of the Event Manager and not of the invited attendees. For the recipient’s login-ID in the event notification, use the {login} field.

  1. Click the Event Management tab in Adobe Connect Central.
  2. Navigate to the desired folder.
  3. Click the event.
  4. Click the Email Options link at top of the Events tab. Do any of the following:
    • Select the check box to the left of the email messages you want to send.

  5. Click Save to save your changes or Cancel to exit the email form.

  6. Click Send Test Email to preview the email before it is sent to the intended recipients.

Edit the mailing list

You can add and delete users, groups, and guests from the mailing list.

Lưu ý:

Each time you create an event, the system creates a group named after the event and populates it with the invited users. This arrangement lets you easily invite the same people to a follow‑up event. To invite the same people, select the group from the previous event in the Users And Groups list.

  1. Click the Event Management tab in Adobe Connect Central.
  2. Navigate to the desired folder.
  3. Click the event.
  4. Click Participant Management.
  5. Edit users or guests:
    • Click Add Guest and type or paste in email addresses for all your invitees; use commas to separate the addresses.

    • Click Registration Groups and, in the Possible Groups list, select each group you want to invite. (You must be an account administrator to select event registration groups.)

    • Click Import/Export List and then click Browse to navigate to a comma-separated value (CSV) file.

    • Click Edit/Send Invitations to customize and send the event invitation. (You can edit the invitation, but do not change any of the items in curly brackets ({}) in the message body.)

    Lưu ý:

    You may choose to add any of the extra runtime fields to the email message. {user-email} is the email address of the Event Manager and not of the invited attendees. For the recipient’s login-ID in the event notification, use the {login} field.

Tips for creating event mailing lists

Keep in mind the following, when you create mailing lists:

  • A guest is an Adobe Connect user with limited access. Guests can attend only those events for which they are approved. Also, guests cannot log in to Adobe Connect Central.

  • Anyone with an Adobe Connect account in your organization is a user.

Lưu ý:

Before sending out invitations, check with your Adobe Connect Central administrator for licensing issues. If more people register for the event than you have licenses for, attendees may not be able to join the event when they try to log in.

If the number of guests you are planning to invite is limited, you can type or copy and paste their email addresses using the Add Guest function. If this number is high, you can import a comma-separated values (CSV) file of users.

If you are inviting Adobe Connect users, you can use the Select Participants page to add users to the event invitation list and assign them permissions.

After you create the list, you can send out the invitations using default text or a customized invitation.

Add and manage event participants

You can add or remove participants for an event and change participant or presenter permissions if you are an administrator or presenter. You can add participants to an event at any time after creating an event. Participants can be added as guests, users, or groups.

Add guests

  1. Click the Event Management tab in Adobe Connect Central.
  2. Navigate to the desired event and select it.
  3. In the Event Information page, click Participant Management in the navigation bar.
  4. Click Add Guest.
  5. In the box, type or paste the email addresses of the people you want to invite. (Separate the email addresses with commas.)

  6. When you finish, click Save.

Add participants

  2. Navigate to the desired event and select it.
  3. In the Event Information page, click Participant Management in the navigation bar.
  4. Click Add User/Group.
  5. In the Available Users And Groups list, select a user or group and click Add. You can also click Search to find a user or group that is not listed.

    As you add users and groups, the Current Participants list on the right is updated to reflect your changes.

    Lưu ý:

    Each time you create an event, the system creates a group named after the event and populates it with the invited users. This arrangement lets you easily invite the same people to a follow‑up event. To invite the same people, select the group from the previous event in the Users And Groups list.

  6. When you finish, click OK.

Add event participants using a CSV file

If you have a comma-separated values (CSV) file that contains names and email addresses, you can import the file to add participants to an event. Keep in mind these requirements, when you import a CSV file:

  • Empty lines in the file are not allowed. If the CSV file contains empty lines, the import operation fails.

  • Names that contain a comma must be in quotes. For example, the name John Doe, Jr., must appear in the CSV file as “John Doe, Jr.” for the file to import correctly.

  • Do not include a header row in the CSV file.

  • At minimum, the CSV file must contain columns for first name, last name, and email address. For example:

    Michael

    Betts

    mbetts@mycompany.com

    Rachel

    Blatt

    rblatt@mycompany.com

    Rebecca

    Bloom

    rbloom@mycompany.com

    Charles

    Bond

    cbond@mycompany.com

    Paul

    Davis

    pdavis@mycompany.com

 

  1. Click the Event Management tab in Adobe Connect Central.
  2. Navigate to the desired event and select it.
  3. In the Event Information page, click Participant Management in the navigation bar.
  4. Click Import/Export List.
  5. Click Browse, and navigate to the desired CSV file.
  6. Click Upload.

Remove participants from an event

  1. Click the Event Management tab in Adobe Connect Central.
  2. Navigate to the desired event and select it.
  3. In the Event Information page, click Participant Management in the navigation bar.
  4. Select the groups or users that you want to delete from the participants list.
  5. Click Remove.
    Lưu ý:

    Participants that are removed from the event do not receive an invitation and cannot join the event unless event access is changed to Anyone.

Change permissions of event participants

Users can opt out of receiving event invitation emails. For such users, instead of permission in Participant Management you see an opted out status. Event Hosts or Event Managers cannot change the permissions for the users who have opted out.

  1. Select the Event Management tab in Adobe Connect Central.
  2. Navigate to the desired event and select it.
  3. In the Event Information page, click the Participant Management link in the navigation bar.
  4. In the Users And Groups list, select the user or group whose permission you want to change.
  5. Click Set User Role. From the pop‑up menu, select the new permission type to assign. The permission types are: Denied, Invited, Pending Approval, Participant, Presenter, and Host. (Presenter and Host are available only if the event is a meeting or seminar.) If you are the administrator, you can provide special access to specific users or groups to perform detailed event-related configuration tasks. These tasks include editing group membership, configuring event analytics, creating campaign IDs, and managing event tags and email aliases.

Designate a group for approved event registrants

You can designate a group that event registrants are automatically assigned to when they are approved for the event. This arrangement is useful when you conduct a follow‑up event because you have the registered attendees organized into one group.

Note: Only account administrators can select event registration groups.

 

  1. Select the Event Management tab in Adobe Connect Central.
  2. Navigate to the desired event and select it.
  3. Click the Participant Management link in the navigation bar.
  4. Click Registration Groups.
  5. In the Possible Groups list, select a group and click Add. The selected group name appears in the Current Group Membership list.

Convert guests to full users

If you are an Administrator, you can convert existing guests to full users. This distinction can be important because only full users, not guests, can log in to the Adobe Connect Central administration site. Full users also appear on enrollment and permission lists.

  1. Select the Administration tab in Adobe Connect Central.
  2. Select Users And Groups.
  3. Select Manage Guests.
  4. In the Current Guests list, select a guest.
  5. Click Convert To User.

    Conversely, if you wanted to change a full user into a guest, you would select a user in the Current Users list and then click Convert to Guest.

Send and manage event invitations

If you are an administrator, an event host, or a user with permissions to manage a specific Event library folder, you can send event invitations.

An event invitation is an email message that is sent to event attendees, informing them of the date, time, duration, and URL of the event. The way that invitations are sent depends on the type of event:

Invitees Only

If your event is for registered users only, you create a custom email message in Adobe Connect Central. You can send the email to all registered participants and presenters, presenters only, or participants only. You can customize the subject and message body. You can attach a Microsoft Outlook Calendar iCal so that participants can add the event to their Outlook Calendar.

Anyone

If your event is open to anyone who receives the event URL, you can create an email message in your default email program. This message contains a pre-populated subject and a pre-populated message (event date, time, duration, location, and summary), but you can edit the text.

  1. Select the Event Management tab in Adobe Connect Central.

  2. Navigate to the desired event and select it.

  3. In the Event Information page, click the Participant Management link in the navigation bar.

  4. Click Edit/Send Invitations in the navigation bar.

  5. (Optional) If you want to send a blind copy of the invitation to anyone, add the email address in the BCC Recipients box. This can be useful if, for example, you want coworkers to know that you sent the invitation.

  6. Edit the subject and the message body.

    If you edit the text, there are several fields in curly brackets ({}). In general, do not change any of the fields, unless you have a specific reason. The curly brackets contain variables that the system replaces with actual values that are specific to your event.

    Lưu ý:

    If you add any of the extra runtime fields to the email message, {user-email} is the email address of the Event Manager and not of the invited attendees. For the recipient’s login-ID in the event notification, use the {login} field.

  7. To attach an iCal, select the check box next to the Attach Microsoft Outlook Calendar Event (iCal) To Email Message option.

  8. Click Send.

Opt out from event invitations

Event Administrators can edit an event template to provide an option for invitees to opt out of all event invitations in the future.

To provide this option, add the runtime field Invitations Opt Out URL to a template. The invite contains a link to opt out. Upon clicking it, the users get a confirmation email with a link to opt out.

Event Administrators can download the opt out report to check the status of each participant.

Download the Opted Out Users report

  2. Copy the Opt-in link from Event Invitations Opt-in Link For Your Account section.

  3. Share the link with the users who want to opt in to receive event invitations again.

Use campaign tracking with an event

Use the campaign tracking option to track registered users based on campaign source. The Events registration and attendance reports list campaign sources alongside user names. Common campaigns include email offerings, search engine campaigns, and banner ad campaigns.

By default, the Enable Campaign Tracking option is selected on the Campaign IDs page when you create an event. You can select the campaign tracking option after you publish the event and send invitations. In this case, invitees who already registered using the registration URL in your original email invitation are not tracked.

Lưu ý:

To track a campaign, modify the registration URL for the event. You can’t change the registration URL for the Event Listings page and the Event Information page. If you want to use the Event Listing page or the Event Information page, you cannot track a campaign.

Manage Campaign IDs

Event creators can add Campaign IDs to their events, when creating or editing their events. They can reuse existing Campaign IDs, from a unique tab.

Event Administrators create Campaign IDs that can be used across all events. To create a Campaign ID, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to Events Management > Event Administration > Campaign IDs.
  2. Click Create.
  3. Enter the Campaign ID and an alias. Optionally, add comments to describe the Campaign ID.
    Lưu ý:

    To use space in the name of an ID, use %20 encoding in the name instead of the space. If you use space in the ID name, some Event pages may not load properly.

  4. Click Save.

  2. Open an event. Click Campaign IDs.
  3. Specify the Campaign ID in the Campaign Id for E-mails field.
  4. Optionally, select Campaign IDs and click Get URLs, to generate the associated Event Page URLs for existing campaign IDs created by an Event Administrator.
  5. Click Save.

The Campaign ID automatically appears in the email templates that you use to send email notifications for the event.

Add a campaign ID to the event URLs

Once the campaign tracking is enabled, Adobe Connect tracks the origin of participants using the campaign ID. Adobe Connect adds the specified campaign ID to the automatically generated invitation email. If you share the event URL via other channels, generate and use the URL containing the Campaign IDs. Follow are the steps below to create a URL with the campaign ID.

  1. Open Adobe Connect Central. Click Event Management.
  2. Open the event and click Campaign IDs.
  3. Select one or more campaign IDs and click Get URLs. Event Administrators create the campaign IDs.
