Add inner sessions

This guide provides a straightforward process for adding inner sessions to your scheduled events.

Please note: If you’ve scheduled abstracts in the abstract system and have linked them to a session, they will automatically appear in the schedule as inner sessions. For more details, refer to sections 11 and 12.
