Use the Featured Talks component to highlight selected talks on your event homepage.
Featured talks can also affect checkout ordering. If your event requires attendees to choose talks during registration, featured talks are shown ahead of other eligible upcoming talks in the talk-selection step.
Mark a talk as featured
From your dashboard, go to Content > Talks.
Select the talk you want to feature.
Open the ... menu, then choose Advanced Settings.
In Visibility and Display, tick Is Featured?.
Click Save.
Add the Featured Talks component
Open your event homepage.
Click Edit Page.
Open Components.
Under Dynamic Content, drag Featured Talks onto the page.
Optionally use the component settings to change the title, intro, text size, alignment, or to filter the talks by category or custom tag.
The component shows up to 8 talks. It shows talks marked as featured first. If no matching talks are marked as featured, it falls back to eligible talks for the event.
