Now you are all set!
From now on, either click Log in (located in the more-menu) or the link in the e-mail.
Jumping back and forth

Editing the Company page
After changing your password and logging in again, you will end up in the Companies list page.
Please note that the system will select "Mine" at the top so that you do not have to search for your own company.
The company link (The Fantastics, in the above example) will take you to your destination!
Above is the editing page.

Editing event pages
Depending on what events you have been selected to conduct, your choices are
- Master Classes
- Open Stages
- Performances
- Seminars
- Workshops
Editing those will work the same way as Companies.
Hint: The "Preview" link or button in the different event formats will only present the event itself (kind of out of context).
You can keep the Company preview page open in a tab and just click "Refresh" after each "Save Draft" click in events.

Submitting for review
It is utterly annoying that the validation of values happen in this stage. Something like this may show up at the top of your screen:
Validation failed. 2 fields require attention
Unfortunately you will have to scroll down, correct the issue(s), scroll up and try clicking again.
Visibility of pages
Draft and Pending
Pages start out as Draft. When you click they will become Pending.
Most of this information is only visible when you are logged in.
Exception: At the moment, if anyone clicks on the "Program" menu item, they will see "Preliminary program". Only "Event title", "Company Name", "Company Country" and Time and Place for all events that have a title.
Published
When the F.E.S.T desk has reviewed the information the page will be Published.
These events are published publicly on the site and the internet.
Published events and company pages cannot be edited by you any more. Not a problem! Just send an email to The F.E.S.T DGuest Desk adn we will "unlock" your pages. When you are content, either click "Submit for review" again or send another email.
Fighting with some fieldtypes
Repeaters (Participating members, Links, Files)
These fields are tricky because you can add more than one member, link or file.
At the bottom of such fields there will be a button called something like
It may be tricky to realize that you can remove and reorder exisiting items.
When you hover over the field the "Add row", "Delete row" and "Collapse row" thingamagoos appear!
Furthermore, a validation check will be conducted for example on a Link. So if you Add Link and leave it, you may get confused. Remove the row or click and put an actual link in there.
Main image/Performance image
After you have uploaded and selected the image, it will be shown in the form. It might be seriously useful to know that if you hover over the image you can access an edit button and a delete button.
High resolution files
Both the description field and the File are mandatory. File is like Link, when they are empty the system displays a button .
