Quick answer

In talque there are two ways to bring people in: right after event setup, you've invited content contributors like speakers and partners to add their content — that flow is link-based and doesn't require contributors to register on talque.

About a week before the event starts, you need to invite attendees into the talque app: add them to the Invitations tab in the admin area and send invitations from there. Attendees receive an email asking them to click “Start onboarding now for {event name}”. The link takes them straight into talque.

Tip: The link in the registration email can later be used to log in to talque as well.

Prerequisites

  • Email template: set up the Invitation email template under Admin > Email Templates > Templates. Also check the Invitation reminder template.
  • Email footer: enter your organization details under Admin > Email templates > Settings.
  • Email banner: set up a banner under Admin > Branding > Email Banner.

Add attendees to the invitation list

You can enter attendee data manually via + Add or upload via file with Upload CSV. Excel .xlsx and .csv files are accepted. Please start with our .xlsx template or .csv template.

Tips: Don't change or delete the header row. Just add your data in the rows below it. The email field is required. But add as many details as you can.

Send invitations

To send the invitations, go to Admin > Invitations and click Send emails at the bottom. After sending, the invitation status changes from Not Sent to Sent. When the attendee registers, the status changes to Registered.

Once invitations have been sent to everyone with status Not Sent, the button changes to Send reminder. This email uses the Invitation reminder template.

Tip on errors: If the status shows Error after sending, check your email templates. Open the template and click Show preview. If an error message appears, fix it. The problem is often a broken auto-text field.
