Talk Tasks

The Tasks page inside your talk portal shows tasks the event team has assigned specifically to your talk. These are separate from your general My Tasks list — they are scoped to one submission.

Where to Find It

Me > Talks > [your talk] > Tasks

Open your talk, then select Tasks from the navigation.

The talk Tasks tab with its task list and an empty-state message for this demo talk.
Tasks linked to the talk appear here; the current seeded talk has no assigned task rows.

What appears here​

Tasks created by the event team and assigned to you or your co-authors for this talk. Common examples include:

  • Upload final presentation slides by a deadline.
  • Complete a speaker biography form.
  • Review and accept a session time.
  • Submit AV requirements.

Task list​

The table lists each task with its title, assignee, start date, due date, and status. Tasks can be assigned to you or to any of the talk's co-authors.

Working a task​

Click a task to open its details. From there you can:

  • Read the description and check the due date.
  • Reassign the task to yourself or another co-author of the talk.
  • Mark complete when the work is done.

Some tasks carry a completion requirement that gates the Mark complete button:

  • Document required — upload the requested file from the task details first; Mark complete stays disabled until a document is attached. You can replace the document later while the task is still open.
  • Form required — a Fill out form button opens the linked form. The task completes automatically when you submit the form, so there is nothing to mark manually.

If a task has no special requirement, simply click Mark complete when you're done.

Mark tasks done before the deadline

Event teams track talk readiness via task completion. Overdue tasks may trigger follow-up from the organiser.

Check your work​

  • A completed task's status changes to the project's "done" status, and it no longer offers the Mark complete button.
  • For a form task, submitting the form returns you to the talk portal with the task already completed.
  • Tasks you finish here also show as complete in your cross-event My Tasks list.
Connected Feature

Your personal task list at My Tasks aggregates all tasks assigned to you across every project, including talk-specific tasks.
