Disabling Raised Hand function in a Webinar

Hi, 

I am hosting a webinar and cannot figure out how to disable the raise hand function. I thought I used to go into the participants, and I selected "Disable raised hand", but it is not there anymore.

@Privet,

 

You're right on the mark there! If you're the webinar host, co-host or panelist you'll see the option to disable hand raising in the participant's tab > click the 3 dot ellipses. Photo attached

-If you're not the host, it's possible the host has this feature disabled.

 

If you're not seeing this option, please ensure all prerequisites are met in the article below:

If this answers your question, please accept as solution.

I am also facing same issue. I am using version 5.15.7 but did not found such option to disable hand raise even I am the host.

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @shashisbs.

 

Disabling the Raise Hand feature is only available in a Webinar.  If you are in a meeting, disabling the Raise Hand feature isn't currently possible.


Ray -- check out the GoodClix website or the Z-SPAN website.

Hi Ray, I am not seeing this option on my webinar! How do you do it?
