Automatically authorise abstract submission

Hello,
I would like applicants for an abstract in the call for contribution not to have to undergo any selection or authorisation process on my part.
I would like them to be accepted automatically and not awaiting assessment.

Thank for your help :slight_smile:

Automatically accepting abstracts and creating contributions from them w/o any kind of manager involvement seems like a strange idea. Don’t you want to have some control over what kind of contributions your event will have?

In any case, what you are looking for is not possible out of the box.

No, these are guest presentations that we would like to receive, we don’t have to accept them.

With version v3.2.9, can an accepted abstract submitter upload his presentation to the agenda himself?

That depends on how the submitter rights are configured (“Contribution submitters” setting) in the Call for Abstracts setup. By default all authors on the abstract will have submission rights on the contribution, and can thus upload files.

Also note that v3.2.x is pretty outdated (it’s been over half a year since the release of v3.3), you should really consider updating as soon as possible (or ask your Indico admin to do so).

PS: This doesn’t seem related to the rest of the thread (in the future, please don’t hesitate to open new threads rather than hijacking an existing one for an unrelated question).
