Registering for a Conference


Before you start

Find the conference's public page and locate the registration form. You'll be prompted to sign up or log in to your Brownbag account before registering.


Register

  1. Enter your affiliation (employer, university, or organization).
  2. Click Register.
  3. Confirm by clicking Register again in the dialog that appears.

You'll see a success message once registration is complete.

Note: No confirmation email is sent for conference registration.


Browsing the public conference

Registration is only one part of the attendee experience. The rest of the public conference page is meant to be explored without registering first.


Without a Brownbag account

You can open the conference's public URL and read everything the organizer has published—for example overview text, images, and any tabs or sections they added. You only need to sign up or log in when you use a feature that requires an account (such as the registration block or the paper submission form, if those are on the page).


Program and other content

Organizers often add a program or calendar (for example via the Program Calendar component) so you can see sessions, times, and rooms. They may also split content across tabs (such as separate areas for general information, the program, or registration).

What appears depends on what the organizer built and published in the editor. If something is on the public page, you can view it without registering—unless that piece itself is the registration or submission flow, which will prompt you to sign in when you use it.
