Tracks

Tracks group sessions by theme — Marketing, Engineering, Design — so attendees can filter the schedule to what's relevant to them. You manage tracks directly from the Sessions tab.

Updated May 26, 2026


Tracks let you group sessions by theme — Marketing, Engineering, Design — so attendees can filter the schedule and find sessions relevant to them. Each session belongs to at most one track.

Tracks are available on the Pro plan and require at least one session to exist on the event.

Where to manage tracks

Tracks have no dedicated tab. You reach them from two places, both inside the Sessions tab:

  • Manage tracks button in the Sessions tab toolbar — opens a dialog to create, rename, or delete all tracks for the event. This button only appears once the event has at least one session.
  • Track picker in the session detail sheet — when editing a session, select a track from the dropdown. An inline Create new track option lets you add a track without leaving the session.

Creating and renaming tracks

Open the Manage tracks dialog and enter a name. Track names must be unique within an event. If you submit a name that already exists, the system returns the existing track rather than creating a duplicate.

Renaming a track updates everywhere automatically. Sessions are linked to tracks by ID, so the new name appears on every session card and in the schedule timeline without any manual reassignment.

Deleting a track

Deleting a track removes it from the event but does not delete its sessions. Each session that was assigned to the deleted track simply becomes untracked — it remains on the schedule and is editable as normal.

Attendee view

Attendees see track names as a colored chip on each session card and as a small pill badge in the schedule timeline. The timeline shows a track filter dropdown, but only when the event has at least one track — it is hidden for events with no tracks.

Track color is currently determined by the track name, not by any color you set. The color field exists and saves, but the rendered chip color comes from a deterministic hash of the name. Custom color selection will take effect in a future update.
