The setting for the determination of presenting authors is done for
each submission type / track individually.
Please go to:
Overview => Settings => Manage Submission Types / Conference Tracksand in the section “Settings for the Submissions Form of this Type or Track” choose the appropriate setting for the option “
Presenting Author”. You can allow to select one or several presenting authors.
Please be aware that this setting applies only for the "normal" submission page.
The presenting author can always be entered during the upload of the final version / camera-ready copy of the submission.
Please note: In the
list of users, the
submitting author will be marked as "
Presenting" if a
submission was accepted (i.e., an acceptance status was assigned to the submission that indicates that the submission will be presented).
However, if a submission has one or more
authors selected as presenting authors and there are
user accounts in the system with matching e-mail addresses, these
co-authors will be marked as "Presenting" instead of the submitting author. (See Image 1)

Status "Presenter" (Presenting Author) is not correctly set.
