Waiting Room Participants Order

When participants arrive in the waiting room or a meeting, they used to be arraigned in order of their arrival. However, now they are placed in alphabetical order. Is there a way to toggle this back? I am a teacher trying to take attendance before I start the meeting and it is difficult when the list is constantly rearranging to fit participants in alphabetically. 

Thank you!

Hey @dounan, as far as I know, the arrangement order for the waiting room when participants join is non-changeable. You can submit any ideas and suggestions to https://zoom.us/feed

My coworkers waiting room is in order of arrival while mine is alphabetical. It is possible I just can not find the settings. This is a huge issue for me.

Did you figure this out?

I see you asked this question in 2021. There are two ways to to order participants in the waiting room: alphabetically; or, in the order they arrive to the waiting room. If your administrator allows, you can find the setting to decide this in the Zoom portal/Settings/Security/Waiting Room.
