Using Custom Tags for Talks

Written by Jerica

Use Custom Tag on a talk when you want to add one extra label beyond your normal talk categories. Tags are useful for details such as format, audience level, or track style, for example Roundtable, Presentation, Beginner, or Advanced.

When you create or edit a talk, open the talk details and use the Custom Tag field. You can select an existing tag or enter a new one. Each talk can have one custom tag.

If you edit the name of an existing tag from the dropdown, HeySummit updates other talks in the same event that were using that tag too. This helps keep tag names consistent across your event.

Custom tags appear next to talks in public talk cards and related talk lists. When active talks have tags, visitors can also filter the schedule and replay lists by tag.

Categories are still the main way to group talks by topic. Use custom tags for an extra single label that helps attendees scan or filter talks more easily.
