Website administration

The configuration of your SciencesConf website depends on the different modules you have selected.

Access to the conference space

Once your space has been accepted by our team, you will receive a confirmation email with the website URL.

To access your conference space, click on the URL contained in the email and log in As a site administrator, you have access to the “My space” section

Par défaut, le compte avec lequel la demande de création du site a été faite a les droits d’administrateur de la conférence. À ce stade, le site est uniquement accessible aux administrateurs et aux personnes possédant certains rôles spécifiques donnés par l’administrateur. Vous pouvez donner le privilège Administrateur à d’autres personnes ayant un compte.

In the “My space” section, you will see a table with the list of items to configure according to the modules enabled for your conference.

For more details on privileges, please see the FAQ at the end of this page.

General setting

The first step is to check the general setting you entered when you requested to create a conference.

In Administration > General setting menu, you will find general conference information such as title, dates or location.

In this form, fields with an asterisk are mandatory. This is the name, description, start and end dates, city and country of the conference.

They are also used for search engine referencing.

Modules

The elements visible in your space depend on the modules activated.

Le module Relecture pour gérer la relecture et les relecteurs,

Le module Edition électronique pour générer le livre des résumés et/ou les actes,

Le module Export dans HAL pour permettre aux déposants de demander l’export dans HAL,

Le module Programme pour paramétrer l’affichage du programme,

Enable/disable modules

To enable or disable modules, go to Administration > Modules.

When you activate the Registration management module and the Editorial management module, the sub-modules are disabled by default. We need to activate them one by one.
