How to Announce an Event

(Only for institutional profiles)

After a long and tedious journey, involving the clean-up of hundreds of pages and the rehaul of our IT infrastructure, we're happy to announce that the philosophy portal is "open for business" again!


Here are some new precious information:


Your information


Here's the information about you already on the portal:

- Institutional profiles: how do they work?


We have created the so-called "institutional profiles". These profiles concern those entities that organise events (not just universities and societies, but also research groups, associations, places, museums, cabinets, etc.). Once logged in, you can change the profile information, create information pages, and announce events.

For each organisation, we use either the organisational email or the email of a contact person, if we have it. If you'd like to change the contact person's email, please contact our portal manager Valentina Luporini (info@philosophie.ch).

 

Creation of events

  • click on the pencil on the top right, then click on "new event".
  • you will be sent to the list of your articles and here you can choose to create a new article of the event, or edit an existing one. Any option you choose, you have to click on "add block" and choose "event". Note that you can create several events in a single information page.
  • This will create a text block in which you can put a description of your event (venue, room, hours, abstract, speakers' bio etc.)
  • On the right of the text block, you will see fields to add the title, date and city. 
  • Once published, these three fields will be visible on the calendar (agenda) and on click, you will be automatically redirected from the calendar to the information page where the description of the event is. (Notice that the calendar entries are very short. They just provide the speaker + title, date and city. All other information (venue, room, hours, abstract, speakers' bio etc.) go into the information page). 

 

If you have problems announcing an event, please write to our webmaster and IT engineer Luis Bordo at webmaster@philosophie.ch (French, Spanish, Italian or English).
