Live agenda and online event

How to show attendees the agenda on their phones — on the local network or on the internet.

What it is for: Attendees scan a QR code and see the live agenda: which session is running, how much time is left, what comes next. Several rooms (separate computers with the program) can be joined into one event with one page.
Who can use it: Operator in the program — PRO feature. The online page needs an internet connection; the local view works on the computer’s network.
Where to find it: Agenda tab → Live agenda bar above the agenda (visible when a conference is selected).

1Live agenda bar

1 Publish online — sends the agenda to the internet page (timerpro.eu) and keeps it up to date. When off — the agenda is not sent.
2 Page language — Polish, English, German, Spanish or as in the program.
3 Local view — opens the local network agenda page in a browser.
4 Copy online link — copies the internet page address to the clipboard.
5 Logo… — event logo on the page (PNG, JPG or WEBP file from disk).
6 QR code — QR code for the internet page (for printing).
7 Create event and 8 Join event — joining several rooms into one event (below).
9 Agenda look… — the look of the agenda page: template, fonts and clock colour (below).

You choose the look of the page — attendees (local network and online) see only this one look, with no switch.
1 Template — Current, Stage, List only or Light (examples below).
2 Text font and 3 Clock font — fonts available to every viewer, also on phones.
4 Clock colour — the countdown colour (near the end the clock still turns orange, after time — red).
5 Preview — a sample of the fonts and colour.
6 Open the agenda page — the real page in a browser; 7 Save — the page for attendees changes within a few seconds.

Now, Next and the agenda — for phones: the Now card with the clock, the Next card and the whole agenda with times.

Huge clock with the title — screen for the speaker or the room: the clock fills almost the whole screen, the title and speaker below, Next at the bottom.

The whole agenda with times — TV in the lobby: large rows, the running session highlighted, finished ones dimmed.

1 QR code — leads to the agenda page of this conference.
2 Address of the page.
3 Save PNG — an image with the code, name and address (for a poster, slide, badge).
4 Print — an A4 page with the code.

When a conference has several rooms, each with its own computer running TimerPRO, you create one page with the agendas of all rooms like this:
1 Event name — a common name (e.g. the conference name).
2 Name of this room — the name of this computer’s room.
3 Create event — creates the event; the program shows the event link and the join code.
On the computers in the other rooms: Join event → paste the link and the code, type the room name.

Result: Attendees get one link (or QR code) to the page with the agendas of all rooms.

Without internet the agenda works on the local network (venue Wi-Fi): the attendee must be on the same network as the computer with the program.
Address and QR code: in the agenda, the Local Network (QR & Link) button — the address looks like http://192.168.1.100:5000/live/… (with your computer’s address).
Local view on the bar opens the same view in a browser — good for checking before the conference.
