For Ex Ordo, we’re always working to improve the experience in our system, and we’ve just rolled out a new update with two new features. We've taken on board feedback from users around the globe and worked hard to deliver meaningful enhancements that save time and reduce complexity. Read on to explore the highlights of our April release. ### Copy Conference Settings If you’re a repeat customer at Ex Ordo, we can now export your conference’s settings and use them to set up your next conference so that you don’t have to start from scratch. ### Organiser Roles for all Sessions Conference admins can now specify which roles their session organisers are filling for all sessions in their content studio, not just panel sessions. Now our customers can set anyone as Discussant, Convenor and Panel Chair in their event site, the previously this functionality was limited to Panel sessions only. .  ### Expanded Attendee Engagement in Ex Ordo Mobile We’ve added the ability for delegates to scan a QR code to check themselves into a session & delegates can now include a message when connecting with another. So if you're interested in building a more connected engaged experience make sure to use the [Ex Ordo Mobile.](https://www.exordo.com/product/mobile-conference-app) ### **Paypal Payment Gateway** Conference organisers can now collect registration payments using their Paypal Business account. ### **Call for Papers Recipient Filter** In our communication centre, conference admins can now choose to send Call for Papers messages only to those that have not yet received a Call for Papers email. Ex Ordo’s April updates mark another meaningful step forward in simplifying the complexities of academic event management for our customers. With a strong focus on improving usability and streamlining workflows, these new features show a continued commitment to serving the evolving needs of conference organisers, reviewers, and delegates. ### Download No Panic Guide to Organising Scholarly Events ## Read more articles ### [![The best conference announcement sites for your event](https://www.exordo.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/batch_soundtrap-n30_i7mx62o-unsplash-3.png?width=1200&height=800&name=batch_soundtrap-n30_i7mx62o-unsplash-3.png) The best conference announcement sites for your event](https://www.exordo.com/blog/conference-announcement-sites-single-list) 11 July 2024 Upload your event details under relevant categories on conference announcement sites to maximise your reach of target audiences.
