Create a group and call it ‘Sponsors’, ‘About’ or anything else, with the session type set to Meetings. Other settings are not important. For this Sponsor group, find the session group ID (instructions on how to find this ID are located at the bottom of this page).
IMPORTANT: create a subgroup in the event. Otherwise, the sponsor tab will not display correctly. You can make this subgroup invisible by giving it a tag that nobody has.
2. In the script below, change the ID "15910" to the session group ID that you have discovered for your "Sponsors" group. Add this script in the JS customization field under ‘advanced’ in management mode and ask for approval.
$('div.tab-pane[data-group=15910]').find('div.nt-session[data-session-type=DATES]').each(function(){var title = $(this).find('.nt-session-title'); var sessionId = $(title).attr('data-session-id'); var fragmentId = $(title).attr('data-fragment-id'); var profileURL = $(this).attr('data-conference-link'); if(typeof(profileURL)!='undefined'){var hostSpan = $(this).find('div.text-clipped > span[data-session-host-wrap]').detach();$(this).find('div.text-clipped').empty().append(hostSpan).append('<br><a href="'+profileURL+'" class="btn btn-color2 center" target="_blank">Company profile</a><div class="clearfix m-t-xs"></div>');} if(typeof(sessionId)!='undefined' && typeof(fragmentId)!='undefined') {$('a[data-view-session-type=DATES][data-fragment-id='+sessionId+']').replaceWith($('div#ModalViewProfile').find('div[data-fragment-id='+fragmentId+']').find('a[data-ajax-url=connect-attendee]').clone(true,true));}});
3. Add a session to the sponsor group with 2 seats, set location to ‘my own link’ and fill in the URL you would like people to open. When you select a host, that picture will be displayed next to the sponsor's name. Set the session time to a time outside of the actual event. The session should look like this:
This is what attendees see:
How to find the session group ID
Go to the session tab > right click on the session group called Sponsor > choose the option at the bottom called Inspect to inspect the page. At the right side of your screen you will see something comparable to the picture below:
2. The highlighted code is always the same, only the bold value is different. The bold number you see below is the session group ID. This value should be inserted in the script you find at the top of this page.
