Organizers now have the ability to set up pre-defined guidelines and content submission requirements for Exhibitor Events.
Users can flag any inappropriate content and such exhibitor events can be reviewed by the organizer, who can reject them for security concerns.
The exhibitor is notified of their event’s rejection along with the reason for the same.
This ensures policy compliance and content governance, making the show more transparent and secure.
Note: Exhibitor Events rejected for security concern cannot be appealed – this differs from those that are rejected for technical reasons or improper documentation.
Read below for the full details.
What’s included
1. New status for Exhibitor events – Rejected for Security concern
What is it?
A new status Rejected for Security Reasons has been added to the Exhibitor Event Status list.
The “Rejected for Security Concern” status duplicates the “Rejected” status, but exhibitors cannot resubmit changes to it. Therefore, this status cannot be changed and is final.
When marking an exhibitor event as rejected for security reasons, the organizer can also select the reason for rejection from a predefined list. This reason for rejection will be visible to the exhibitor on the front end of the event card.
Additionally, a new column Reported is added on the/admin/events page on the admin panel, which shows the count of users who have flagged rejection of the exhibitor events and when the organizer clicks on this number a details report gets opened.
Lastly, Exhibitors receive notifications informing them of the change in status to “Rejected for Security Concern.”

This will help organiser to report any inappropriate content added by exhibitor via exhibitor events

This email template flies in every 15 minutes showing the details of all the users who have reported the event in those 15 minutes. If no report is submitted within 15 minutes, no email flies.
Flow of reviewing Report
When the organizer clicks on the link added to the email the organiser is prompted to log in to the admin panel and then redirected to the exhibitor event and a report detail pops up. The reported data can be downloaded in the xls file.
The report contains the following fields: Name, Job Title, Company Name, Reason for Report and Timestamp.
Once the organizer marks any event as Rejected for Security Concern, he can also enable a checkbox that will notify all the users who have reported the event about its rejection and can also mention the reason for rejection which will be visible to the exhibitor on My Event Page.

Option to record timestamp for a specific field in the registration form
What is it?
A new attribute is added to the registration pipeline field which when enabled records the timestamp when the data is inputted for that field by the user
Points to be Noted
- When the timestamp recording feature is activated for a field, the export report will include the corresponding timestamp for that field. The column name for the timestamp will be generated as “Timestamp” plus the name of the field for which the timestamp is enabled.
- The timestamp is captured in the format dd-mm-yy hh:mm:ss and reflects the local time zone of the event.
- When data is received through the registration form, the system captures the latest timestamp before the registration is completed.

Two new columns are included in the visitor export file that records the timestamp when the user has activated his profile. The account activation can be through activation link or by API call
