# The conference server | ||
|
||
This year we have decided to try a new platform that has been widely used in other online | ||
conferences, and has shown a good level of customization, interactions, and reach. We are talking | ||
about [Discord](https://discord.com). | ||
|
||
We are providing our server to host all the interactions of the people attending the second year of | ||
PyLadiesCon. We really **encourage you to join** and discover our talks, activities, open spaces, | ||
sprints, tutorials, resources, and more! | ||
|
||
[Register now](https://pretix.eu/pyladiescon/2024/) to PyLadiesCon to get access to our Discord server. | ||
|
||
For Discord users, joining our server is just joining a new server! but if **you are new to | ||
Discord**, don't worry, we got you covered. As a first step, you need to [create an | ||
account](https://discord.com/register). You an also do this while joining the server for the first | ||
time. | ||
|
||
|
||
{{< rawhtml >}} | ||
<div class="w-100 mt-2 text-start p-5 text-center"> | ||
<a href="https://discord.gg/R6zf6ZHYMF"> | ||
<button type="button" class="btn btn-pink btn-block mb-2 text-center" style="display: inline" data-toggle="collapse">Join the Server</button> | ||
</a> | ||
<p style="font-size: 0.8rem;"> | ||
You need a <a href="https://pretix.eu/pyladiescon/2024">ticket for the conference</a> in order to have access. | ||
</p> | ||
</div> | ||
{{< /rawhtml >}} | ||
|
||
## Registration step | ||
|
||
Once you enter the Discord server, you will not see many channels, because you need to register | ||
with your **conference ticket**. | ||
|
||
Check the `#registration` channel, and you will see the following message: | ||
|
||
{{< rawhtml >}} | ||
<img src="/img/discord_screenshots/register.png" class="img-fluid" /> | ||
{{< /rawhtml >}} | ||
|
||
all the instructions can be found there, and they consist of: | ||
|
||
* Getting your conference ticket at hand. The email should have the subject `[PyLdiesCon 2024] Your | ||
order: NNNNN` where the `N` are different letters. On that email you find a URL to get the details | ||
of your ticket. From your ticket you need the **exact** way you wrote your name, and the `N`s code. | ||
|
||
* Click on the **Register here 👈** button, and you will get the following dialog: | ||
|
||
{{< rawhtml >}} | ||
<img src="/img/discord_screenshots/register_enterinfo.png" class="img-fluid" /> | ||
{{< /rawhtml >}} | ||
|
||
and enter the information you gathered from your ticket. | ||
|
||
If everything worked well, you will see many more channels 🎉...but **if it didn't work** please use | ||
the forum called `💬registration-help` (in the following image) and write down your problem, so we | ||
can help you out. | ||
|
||
{{< rawhtml >}} | ||
<img src="/img/discord_screenshots/registration_help.png" class="img-fluid" /> | ||
{{< /rawhtml >}} | ||
|
||
## Inside the server | ||
|
||
You are finally in the server, and there will be many channels, categories, and things to do. | ||
If you are new to discord, this might look overwhelming at the beginning, but you will get the | ||
idea very fast. | ||
|
||
We recommend you to visit the `📖rules` and `📋code-of-conduct` channels to be aware of the | ||
standards we expect from people participating in the conference. | ||
|
||
There will be some channels where you don't have permissions to send messages, because they are | ||
probably for the organizers to announce things during the event. | ||
|
||
Discord, like other chat platforms, has many channels for you to visit and write messages, | ||
but in addition you can create 'threads' on specific messages (like Slack). | ||
|
||
### Joining talks, keynotes and panels | ||
|
||
The Talks, Keynotes, and Panels will be transmitted via YouTube, so you will have two options: | ||
|
||
* Watch them directly on YouTube, or | ||
* Watch them within Discord. | ||
|
||
The interaction will be **only on Discord** so we encourage you to stay around and join the | ||
**media channels** in order to watch the videos, because the chat will be disabled on YouTube. | ||
|
||
As you might have seen in our schedule, we have a **Main Room** and one for **Activities and Open | ||
Spaces**, which will be equivalent to the `main-room` and `activities-room`. | ||
|
||
In the following image you can also find the channels `main-room-media` and `activities-media` | ||
which are **Audio channels**. You can distinguish them by the 🔈 icon on the left side. | ||
|
||
{{< rawhtml >}} | ||
<img src="/img/discord_screenshots/main_channels.png" class="img-fluid" /> | ||
{{< /rawhtml >}} | ||
|
||
When you click this channel, **you will enter automatically** (a sound will get your attention) and | ||
once inside, you can enable/disable your microphone and video. | ||
|
||
Even though this is an audio channel, it can also be used to shared videos, so a volunteer will | ||
start an Activity within that channel with the YouTube streaming that you will be able to join, | ||
**and this will be the mechanism to watch the talks**. | ||
|
||
### The sprints and activities | ||
|
||
As long as there is no special announcement, all the sprints and activities will be hosted within | ||
discord on the Audio channels we described before. Instead of the normal activity on YouTube that | ||
you can join, people will share their webcams, and screens in order to provide the introduction | ||
to the topic (sprints) and to give a short presentation (activities). | ||
|
||
### Forums | ||
|
||
You will see a few channels that have the icon 💬 on the left side, and those are special channels | ||
where you can write down posts, so the discussion can be structured by topics instead of a open | ||
chat. | ||
|
||
There are a few forums for discussing news (`news-discussion`), you can use them in case you need | ||
help with something (`rooms-help`), share resources (`resources`), finding job offerings | ||
(`job-board`), etc. | ||
|
||
If you want to **create a new post** in those forums, you can use the blue button you can see on the | ||
following image, to do so. | ||
|
||
{{< rawhtml >}} | ||
<img src="/img/discord_screenshots/forums.png" class="img-fluid" /> | ||
{{< /rawhtml >}} | ||
|
||
### Contacting organizers and volunteers | ||
|
||
While writing messages you can type `@` to mention certain roles, and we encourage you to mention | ||
`@Organizer`, `@Volunteer` or `@Code of Conduct` in case you believe a situation require their | ||
attention. | ||
|
||
(In case you want to mention a channel, you can use the `#` symbol when writing a message.) | ||
|
||
### Changing your nickname | ||
|
||
When you enter the server and register successfully, your nickname will be changed to the one | ||
you have written in your Ticket. We encourage you to use your real name so other people can | ||
recognize you. In case you want to only use your **firstname** and drop your family name, you can do | ||
that by `right-clicking` on your nickname, and select **Edit Server Profile**. This will change the | ||
information **only on this server** so you don't need to be concerned by your identities in other | ||
servers you have joined. | ||
|
||
{{< rawhtml >}} | ||
<img src="/img/discord_screenshots/change_profile.png" class="img-fluid" /> | ||
{{< /rawhtml >}} | ||
|
||
Once editing your name, you can optionally fill your **Pronouns** so people know how to address you. | ||
|
||
{{< rawhtml >}} | ||
<img src="/img/discord_screenshots/change_profile_details.png" class="img-fluid" /> | ||
{{< /rawhtml >}} | ||
|
||
|
||
## Something is not clear? | ||
|
||
In case you have more questions, feel free to write down your question in the `💬help` forum, | ||
so people can guide you. | ||
|
||
Enjoy the conference! | ||
