Favorites & QR Code Transfer

Your guests save sessions with a click on the heart – no account, no sign-up. The favorites list can be moved to a phone or passed on via QR code. As the organizer, you only see anonymous totals.

How it works for your guests

  1. 1
    Click the heart

    On every card, in the list, in the timetable and in the detail view. The heart turns red immediately – no waiting, no round trip to the server.

  2. 2
    View the favorites

    “My Favorites” shows only the saved sessions – in the calendar, the timetable and the live ticker.

  3. 3
    Share or move to a phone

    The icon next to “My Favorites” opens a window with a QR code and a link. Scan the code with a phone and the selection is available there too.

The “Share Favorites” window: QR code to scan and the link to copy.

How favorites are counted

  1. 1
    Instantly in the browser

    The favorites list lives only in the guest’s browser. No account, no personal data.

  2. 2
    Anonymous counter

    At the same time the browser anonymously reports “+1” to the session – without any information about the person.

  3. 3
    Sent later if needed

    If the report fails (no network, firewall, rate limit), it is stored locally and sent automatically later. The guest never notices.

  4. 4
    Evaluation in the admin

    The dashboard shows the top 10 most popular sessions, and All Events has a sortable “Favorites” column – the fastest way to find out which session needs a bigger room.

Two things you should know

TopicExplanation
The list belongs to the guestIf the browser data is cleared or the device changes, the list is empty. The QR code is meant for moving to a phone. You never see individual people.
Spam protection only affects the statisticsTo stop anyone from skewing the numbers by mass clicking, a minimum interval per IP address applies between two counted reports (default 1 second, adjustable under Settings → Security & Maintenance, 0 turns it off). Saving itself always works instantly – the guest notices nothing and sees no warning.
Privacy

Because no personal data is stored, the favorites feature is uncritical under the GDPR: there is nothing to log and nothing to consent to.

Favorites as calendar files

Individual sessions can be added to Outlook, Apple or Google Calendar via “Save Date” – with a reminder if you have set an iCal alarm (minutes before start) under Settings → Design & Options. More under iCal calendar export.
