Disable abstract reviews

Hi there,

I’m on Indico 3.2.9 and I wanted to know if it was possible to disable the reviewing and acceptance of abstracts?

The abstract I will opene will only be for the invited speakers, so i don’t need to validate them because i already know they’re ok. But for now, when an abstract is upload, it says it waiting for an evaluation.
How can i disable this ?

Thanks !

You still need to accept the abstract to turn it into a contribution. There is no need to go through reviewing, but “judging” it to accept them is needed.

This also makes sense because the submitter may have typos in the details they provided when entering whatever content they added for your invited speakers.

Note: If you do not expect the invited speaker to add any data, then you could skip the (invited) abstracts altogether and simply create their contribution directly.
