how to set up a 2-day conference with multiple sessions and 1 general payment

I’m setting up several conferences of the same type with the following profile:
1. Abstract submission upload/management: is it possible? how?
2. Customizing the layout of the list of sessions (event datetimes). Is it possible to edit the list of sub-events created here as a conventional conference program? Is it possible to see it in a table (because we will have 30 or 40 sessions during the 2-day conference)?
3. On registration, how can we have a single box for attending all sessions?

Thank you.

Hi cetaps,

I’ll follow up with each of your questions below:

1. Abstract submission upload/management: is it possible? how?

Do you mean Abstract submission upload by registrant? If so you can install this add-on:
https://eventespresso.com/wiki/file-upload/

2. Customizing the layout of the list of sessions (event datetimes). Is it possible to edit the list of sub-events created here as a conventional conference program? Is it possible to see it in a table (because we will have 30 or 40 sessions during the 2-day conference)?

This would require custom PHP development of a template to extract the datetimes from an event and display them into a custom layout. If this is a one off conference it may be better suited to use a plugin like this one to display the list of sessions:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/mp-timetable/
Depending on your layout requirements, the EE4 calendar add-on can also display datetimes in a single date view by default.

3. On registration, how can we have a single box for attending all sessions?

Do you mean a single ticket for attending all of the sessions? If so yes, all of the datetimes can be attached to a specific ticket by opening the Advanced ticket editor (click on the gear icon) then check all the boxes next to the datetimes.
