Setting up an event

Once the event has been ordered, Deckhandoff creates a Drive folder and day folders for it. After that, setup goes like this:

1. Import the schedule from a Google Sheet or Excel. Every speaker gets their own upload link. See Schedule import.
2. Check the settings: upload deadline, day lock, file name pattern and file sizes. See Event settings.
3. Create the technical partner's link and send it to the partner. See Partner link.
4. Send the invitations to speakers. See Invitations and links.
5. Follow the status and remind those who are missing. See Status view and Reminders.

Send the invitations once the schedule is fairly final. Later changes don't break anything: the speaker's link stays the same even if a session moves. See Schedule changes.
