Event tracks¶
In Odoo, Tracks is a term used for talks, lectures, demonstrations, presentations, etc. that occur at an event.
With the Events application, create, schedule, and manage tracks for any event.
There is also the option to allow attendees to propose talks (tracks) for an event, which can then be approved or denied.
配置¶
Navigate to , and tick the Schedule & Tracks checkbox.
When that checkbox is ticked, two additional setting options appear: Live Broadcast and Event Gamification.
The Live Broadcast option provides the ability to air tracks online, through a YouTube integration.
The Event Gamification option provides the ability to share a quiz with attendees once the track is over.
備註
With the Event Gamification setting enabled, an Add Quiz button appears on track forms.
Once all desired settings have been enabled, click Save.
Event Tracks page¶
To access, modify, and/or create tracks for an event, navigate to a preconfigured event, or create a new one.
On the desired event form, click the Tracks smart button at the top of the form.

If the Tracks smart button is not readily available, click the More drop-down menu to reveal hidden smart buttons. Then, click Tracks from the resulting drop-down menu.
Clicking the Tracks smart button reveals the Event Tracks page, with all the tracks (both scheduled and proposed) for the event, if there are any.
The tracks are presented in a default (Kanban) view, but there is the option to view these tracks in a (List), (Gantt) chart, (Calendar), (Graph), or (Activity) view. All of which are accessible in the upper-right corner.
In the default (Kanban) view, the tracks are categorized into different stages. The default stages are: Proposal, Confirmed, Announced, Published, Refused (collapsed stage), and Cancelled (collapsed stage). All of which can be edited, if needed.

To edit a stage, hover over the stage name, click the (gear) icon, and select Edit Stage from the resulting drop-down menu.
Clicking into a track from the Event Tracks page reveals the track form for that particular track.
Create event track¶
From the Event Tracks page, click New in the upper-left corner to reveal a blank event track form to create an event track.
Start by giving the track a Title. This field is required by Odoo.
If desired, add an accompanying image to the track, via the (pencil) icon that appears when the cursor hovers over the (camera) icon. When clicked, upload the desired image for the track. This image appears on the event website, on this specific track’s page.
Enter a Track Date and time for the track, and designate a Location where the talk is planning to be held.

If the Always Wishlisted checkbox is ticked, the talk is automatically set as a favorite for each registered event attendee.
Assign someone to be in charge of managing this track in the Responsible field. By default, the person who created the track is assigned.
Ensure the track is applied to the correct event in the Event field. By default, this field is auto-populated with the event related to the Event Tracks page the track was created from.
Choose to add existing Tags, or create new ones, to further organize the track. These tags, and their corresponding categories, are utilized on the event specific website.
Beneath that general information section, there are three tabs: Speaker, Description, and Interactivity.
Speaker tab¶
The Speaker tab on an event track form has fields related to the specific speaker/host of the track.
Contact details¶
In the Contact Details section, use the Contact drop-down field to select an existing contact from the database as the main point of contact for the talk.
If this contact is not in the database, type in the name of the contact, and click Create [contact name], to create and edit the contact form later, or click Create and edit… to be taken to that new contact’s contact form, where the rest of their pertinent information can be entered.
The Contact Email and Contact Phone fields are populated with the information found on that chosen contact’s contact form. These fields are not modifiable once the Contact is selected.
Speaker bio¶
In the Speaker Bio section, enter information related to the speaker. Portions of this section may auto-populate, based on the Contact selected in the Contact Details section. If not, enter information in the necessary fields.
備註
This information appears on the event website, on the specific track page.
Enter a Name, Email, and Phone number for the speaker.
If desired, add an image to appear alongside the speaker biography on the event website, via the (pencil) icon that appears when the cursor hovers over the (camera) icon. When clicked, upload the desired image for the speaker.
Enter a Job Position for the designated speaker, and the Company Name associated with the speaker.
In the Biography field, enter a custom biography with any speaker-related information.
描述分頁¶
The Description tab of an event track form is a blank text field, in which a description of the track can be entered. The information entered here appears on the specific track page on the event website.
Interactivity tab¶
The Interactivity tab on an event track form only has a single option at first: Magic Button.
When the Magic Button checkbox is ticked, Odoo displays a call-to-action button to attendees on the track sidebar, while the track is taking place.
With that checkbox ticked, three more options appear, all of which are related to the Magic Button:
Button Title: Enter a title to appear on the button for attendees.
Button Target URL: Enter a URL that leads attendees to a specific page.
Button appears: Enter a number in the field, and the button appears that number of minutes after track starts.
備註
The magic button only appears if there is more than one published track.
Add Quiz button¶
The Add Quiz button only appears on event track forms if the Event Gamification setting is enabled.
To add a quiz to the event track, click the Add Quiz button to reveal a separate page, where an event track quiz can be configured.
Enter a title for the quiz in the blank field at the top of the page.
If participants can try the quiz multiple times, tick the Allow multiple tries checkbox.
The Event and Event Track fields are non-modifiable, and show the corresponding event and track the quiz is associated with.
To add questions to the quiz, click Add a line beneath the Question column to reveal a Create Questions pop-up window.
備註
All track quiz questions are multiple choice.
From the pop-up window, enter the question in the blank field at the top. Then, click Add a line, and a new line appears, in which an answer option can be entered.
Once an answer option has been entered, designate whether it is the Correct response, by ticking the checkbox in the Correct column. If it is incorrect, leave the checkbox unticked.
There is also the option to add a point value to each answer option in the Points column.
If there are any additional comments that should accompany an answer option, type them into the Extra Comment field.
備註
The Points and Extra Comment fields are optional.
Repeat this process for all answer options.
To remove an answer option, click the (trash can) icon on the far-right of the desired answer line.
Once all answer options are complete, click Save & Close to save the question, close the pop-up window, and return to the track quiz form. Or, click Save & New to save this question, and instantly start creating another question on a new Create Questions pop-up form.
Publish event track¶
Once all desired configurations are complete on an event track form, click the desired stage it should be in from the status bar in the upper-right corner (e.g. Confirmed, Announced, etc.).
備註
The stage of a track can also be changed from the Event Tracks page, where the desired track card can be dragged-and-dropped into the appropriate Kanban stage.
If an event track has not been published yet, and it is moved to the Published stage, Odoo automatically publishes the track on the event website.
An event track can also be published by opening the desired event track form, and clicking the Go to Website smart button. Then, toggle the Unpublished switch at the top of the page to Published; thus turning it from red to green, and making it accessible for attendees.
