On April 16, between 2:25 P.M. ET and 4:12 P.M. ET, the domain zoom.us was not available due to a server block by GoDaddy Registry. This block was the result of a communication error between Zoom’s domain registrar, Markmonitor, and GoDaddy Registry, which resulted in GoDaddy Registry mistakenly shutting down zoom.us domain. Zoom, Markmonitor, and GoDaddy worked quickly to identify and remove the block, which restored service to the domain zoom.us. There was no product, security or network failure at Zoom during the outage. GoDaddy and Markmonitor are working together to prevent this from happening again.

Changing your permanent contacts display names

Hello,

 

As an educator, I have multiple permanent students as contacts. They write whatever they want in the profile which makes it really hard for me sometimes to locate them and to remember what it is that they are learning with me. On Skype, I can mark students with names that I recognize and useful details straight in their profile name for my display.

 

I expected this feature to become perhaps available when I upgraded, which doesn't seem to be at all an option on zoom.

Is this in the works ? As I'm sure it would be highly valuable to those of us with many permanent contacts.

 

Many thanks,

Maria.

Hi Maria, are these contacts in the same account as you or do these students have their own standalone Zoom accounts? If they are in the same Zoom account there are a few things you can do to limit their ability to change their display names under the security section (just make sure you have admin privileges or have an admin makes these changes:

check the boxes to limit these changes to admins.
