Creating a speaker page

  1. Inside the upcoming folder, use Edit > Copy tree of an existing folder and paste it in upcoming folder.

    This procedure copies the folder and any files within the folder. Careful on how deep it goes, or if there are large files involved.

  2. Edit the image inside the folder:

    • File > Import file and replace the photo (115x130px);
    • Rename the file to the speaker’s surname;
    • Change the title to the speaker’s name.

  3. In the folder:

    • Change the name to the speaker’s surname;
    • Change the Title to the talk’s title;
    • Edit the float column to reflect the speaker’s name. The photo should already be the correct one that you changed before;
    • Edit the main content accordingly.

    If the abstract or biography is missing, write To be added in italics (mind the talk’s language) until you’re provided with one.

Adding a speaker to the list

  1. Copy and paste one of the images below the speaker folder, rename it and replace the image.

  2. Change the title to the speaker’s name.

  3. Adapt accordingly the text column field of the image.

  4. If the previews are good, release all of the content (folders and images).

Editing the seminar database

Seminar Database

  • Make sure to be on the correct EMBL location.
  • Find the intended talk and click edit (right side) to change the contents.
  • Change accordingly and confirm that the event shows the information correctly.

If the abstract or biography is missing, don’t write To be added, just leave it blank. Make sure to update this section when you’re provided with one.

The seminars database updates all information immediately, and you can find the seminars on the EMBL homepage under the news.

Moving to past events

Once the event is over, we must move it to the Past forums folder

  1. Copy and paste the entire contents of the talk (folder and images) to the past_forums folder.

  2. Disable and release the talk (folder and images) from the upcoming folder.

  3. In the recently pasted talk files in the past_forums folder, adapt the locations of the images to account for the new location (if needed).

  4. Set an order for the image (text with image) to be higher than the last one on the published page.

  5. If the previews are good, release all of the content (folders and images).
