How to add a location link to a block room

Hi,

We are often using CERN Indico to manage events at our site (because they are part of a category managed on CERN Indico) rather than ours. It means that rooms mentioned for the various blocks are not know to CERN, we just enter literal information. I didn’t find an efficient way of doing this in a conference type event (with multiple rooms). The 2 features I have been looking for are:

  • Ability to add a map link attached to the room I added to the block. I can only add an address and there the link is just a literal string, not properly rendered
  • Ability to add rooms to the event in such a way we could reuse the information in various session blocks. The information for each room, would be the what is currently provided when you choose a non default room + the map link…

Did I miss something? Else is it a reasonable feature request and where to fill it?

You can only add them as freeform text.

I think we may have a (somewhat old) issue on GitHub about providing a way to define custom rooms on the event (or category?) level, but I couldn’t find it when having a quick look.
