A cross-event guest database with rich profiles, per-event assignments, photo op and autograph scheduling, travel coordination, and SEO-optimized guest pages on your WordPress site — all flowing to the mobile app in real time.
Schedule a DemoGuests drive ticket sales. Whether your convention features Hollywood celebrities, comic book artists, voice actors, YouTubers, or industry speakers, your guest lineup is the reason people buy tickets. Confanum gives you a centralized guest database that spans all your events, with rich profiles that include headshot photos, bios rendered as HTML, a "known for" field for quick recognition, tags for categorization, and a display order so your headliners always appear first.
Each guest in the database can be assigned to one or more events. When you assign a guest to an event, you can customize their bio, photo, and appearance details specifically for that event without changing their master record. This means the same guest can appear at three different conventions with slightly different bios and photos tailored to each audience.
On the public side, guest profiles appear in the mobile app with photos, bios, schedule appearances, and photo op availability. If you use WordPress, the Confanum plugin creates dedicated guest pages at `/guests/{slug}/` with JSON-LD structured data for search engine optimization. A Gutenberg block displays a filterable guest grid on any page. Guests can even be edited from the WordPress admin panel and synced back to the API.
Headshot photos, HTML bios, "known for" tagline, social media links, tags for categorization, and display order for controlling who appears first. Each profile is a complete public-facing page.
One master guest record spans all your events. Assign the same guest to multiple conventions without re-entering data. Per-event overrides let you customize bios and photos for each appearance.
Schedule photo op sessions and autograph signings per guest. Define time slots, pricing, and capacity. Sessions appear in the schedule and can be paired with virtual queue management to eliminate physical lines.
Track flight details, hotel reservations, ground transportation, and special requirements for each guest. Keep handlers and coordinators informed with a centralized travel view per event.
Tag guests by category — Actor, Artist, Voice Actor, Author, YouTuber, Cosplayer. Filter the guest grid in the mobile app and on your WordPress site so attendees find exactly who they are looking for.
Set a numeric display order so your headliners appear at the top of every guest list. Newly added guests get the next available position. Drag to reorder or set values manually.
The WordPress plugin creates a custom post type for guests, synced via API. Each guest gets a dedicated SEO page at `/guests/{slug}/` with JSON-LD structured data, photos, bio, and schedule appearances.
When cloning an event, guest assignments clone too. The system uses the company-wide guest GUID (not a numeric ID) so guest records stay linked correctly across cloned events.
Add guests to your company-wide database with photos, bios, known-for fields, and tags. This is your master list — once a guest is in the system, they are available for any current or future event.
Select guests for each event and customize their per-event details if needed. Link them to schedule items like panels, photo ops, and autograph sessions. Set their display order for the public guest list.
Guest profiles appear instantly in the mobile app and sync to your WordPress site. Attendees browse the guest grid, tap for full profiles, see scheduled appearances, and plan their day around their favorites.
A scrollable guest grid with photos and names. Tap any guest to see their full bio, known-for tagline, and a list of every schedule item they appear in. Filterable by tag so attendees can browse by category.
A Gutenberg block embeds a filterable guest grid on any page. Each guest links to their own `/guests/{slug}/` page with a full bio, photo gallery, and structured data that search engines index and rank.
A preview modal shows how the guest will appear to attendees — photo, bio rendered as HTML, days they are attending, and linked schedule items. Edit anything inline and see changes reflected immediately.
We will walk you through the guest database, per-event assignments, WordPress integration, and how profiles appear in the mobile app — using your actual guest lineup if you share it ahead.
