Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about ConFab
- ConFab uses your WordPress timezone to store and display all session times - If you change timezone AFTER creating sessions, all existing sessions will display in the new timezone - Example: A session created at 9:00 AM might display as 4:00 PM if you change timezones later - Setting it correctly FIRST prevents all timezone problems Remember: Set timezone FIRST, create sessions SECOND. This simple order prevents hours of troubleshooting later.
Use the ConFab Schedule block in the WordPress block editor. You can customize the display with 12 color schemes, 3 table styles, and control which tracks appear, how sessions link, and whether to show excerpts or full content.
ConFab uses three semantic session types: * Normal - Standard conference sessions with alternating row backgrounds * Featured - Highlighted sessions (keynotes, special events) with theme-specific featured colors * Alternate - Sessions with alternate styling, ideal for breaks, meals, or social events
Yes! Use comma-separated dates in the block's date attribute (e.g., 2025-06-15,2025-06-16,2025-06-17) to create tabbed multi-day schedules with client-side navigation.
ConFab offers two layout options: * Table Layout - Traditional time-based table with track columns, perfect for dense schedules with many concurrent sessions * Grid Layout - Modern card-based display with time slot grouping, ideal for schedules with fewer concurrent sessions and mobile-first designs Grid layout automatically detects global sessions (spanning all tracks) and displays them full-width, while concurrent sessions appear in responsive columns.
ConFab offers extensive theming options: * 12 Color Schemes - Light, Dark, Earthtones, Jeweltones, Pastels, Ocean, and Forest (each with dark variant) * 3 Table Styles - Bordered (traditional), Borderless (minimal), Rounded (modern card-style) * All combinations work together for 36 unique looks Note: Table styles apply only to table layout, not grid layout.
Yes! You can either create a specific excerpt in the session post editor, or rely on the auto generate excerpt system. The excerpt system intelligently respects paragraph boundaries, showing complete first paragraphs when they fit within the configured character limit. This creates more natural, readable session descriptions.
Yes! ConFab is designed to work with any properly-coded WordPress theme. The schedule display uses semantic HTML and CSS custom properties that adapt to your theme's styling.
Yes! ConFab uses WordPress translation standards with the 'confab' text domain and includes translator comments for context-dependent strings.
Not recommended without extreme caution. ConFab performs well as a new installation, but it is a separate plugin, not in any way a formal update to WPCS. ConFab does include automatic migration code for certain WPCS data structures (post types, taxonomies, session types), but this functionality is untested in any environment and may not cover all WPCS configurations. Critical differences: * ConFab does NOT include the sponsor/exhibitor system from WPCS Pro * Metadata structures have changed * Custom modifications to WPCS may not transfer * Theme template overrides will need complete rewriting If you must attempt migration: 1. Create a complete site backup (database + files) 2. Test on a staging/development site first 3. Verify all session data, tracks, and schedules display correctly 4. Check all shortcodes and block placements 5. Only then consider production deployment The author provides no warranty or support for WPCS-to-ConFab migrations. Use at your own risk.
