Collaborating on the management of a webinar

My colleague and I are in charge of running webinars for our organisation. Our organisation has a Pro account, and we are both Workplace Pro users on this account.

 

If I set up a webinar via my account, is there a way for my colleague to be able to collaborate on the setting up of this webinar via her account? For example, update the description, manage registrations, access the reports and the recording?

 

We understand the Co-Host aspect which is useful for the actual running of the webinar, but would like to collaborate more on the pre and post event aspects of this.

WARNING to Zoom Webinar Hosts: Don't Use the New "Shared Content Only" Feature

You may have noticed that Zoom recently released a new "Shared Content Only" view mode that webinar hosts can use in "Follow Host View" mode to hide all panelist video tiles and show only the shared content (like slides or any other screenshare). It'... Show more

You may have noticed that Zoom recently released a new "Shared Content Only" view mode that webinar hosts can use in "Follow Host View" mode to hide all panelist video tiles and show only the shared content (like slides or any other screenshare).  It's a very useful new feature that was designed to let webinar hosts have more control over what their attendees are seeing.  There are definitely lots of use cases where a webinar host may want to hide all of the video tiles, especially during transitions between presentation or program segments.

 

HOWEVER... The problem is that the "Shared Content Only" view will NOT work for many of your attendees.  If attendees are using the browser-based version of Zoom, or if they have an older version of the Zoom desktop client, the video tiles WILL NOT disappear for them when the webinar host switches to "Shared Content Only" view.  As you might imagine, this can cause a lot of embarassing problems if the host THINKS they are hiding all of the panelist video when in fact a whole bunch of attendees are still seeing the video.

 

Zoom never bothered to tell their customers that this new feature does not work across all Zoom attendee versions.  And, even worse, after being told about this problem they apparently have no plans to fix it (this is what I've been told via a support ticket).

 

So - webinar hosts - don't use the "Shared Content Only" feature unless all of your attendees are using the most current version of the Zoom desktop client or the mobile app (of course, it's impossible to know this).  Since Zoom hasn't bothered telling their customers about this, hopefully this message will be seen by some and prevent potential embarassment.

 

It's really a shame that Zoom released a new feature that wasn't properly developed or tested.  If it actually worked correctly, it would be a very useful feature for webinar hosts.  As it stands now, it's pretty much useless if it doesn't work across the board for all attendees.

I am experiencing an issue with sharing both computer audio and screen simultaneously during a webinar session on Zoom.

Here are the details of the problem:

  1. I am using a Zoom Webinar plan and hosting webinar sessions.
  2. When I attempt to share my screen during the webinar, the "Share Sound" checkbox is visible but grayed out, making it impossible to enable sound sharing.
  3. If I go to the "Advanced" tab in the screen sharing menu and choose "Computer Audio Only," the computer sound is shared successfully, but the screen is not shared.
  4. This issue occurs on multiple PCs, not just mine, so it seems to be a broader issue rather than a device-specific one.
  5. I have already checked the following:
    • My Zoom client is up to date.
    • The settings in my Zoom account on the web portal do not seem to provide any option to enable or disable computer audio sharing.
    • My computer's audio and microphone settings are configured correctly.
    • I am the host during the session, so permissions are not an issue.

I have a Zoom registration form for an event, which asks for First Name, Last Name and Email Address.

I am directing classmates to this form from our class website.

I want to not require them to complete the above 3 fields as that information is known to us on the sending website before the redirect.

How do I supply this information in the redirect (either in the URL or in a POST format)? And how do I find out the names of these three fields?

I am using PHP on my server side and HTML/JavaScript on the client side.

Resolved! Branding Domain Verification Parameters

Can someone tell me the actual DNS records to use for domain name verification?

 

I'm trying to verify our domain name, and it seems like there's incomplete and conflicting information. The instructions in the verification popup give me a domain-level TXT record, OK that's done. Then it says it wants a CNAME to "events-branding.zoom.us," but doesn't give me a subdomain for that CNAME record. If I try to use "events-branding" as the subdomain for the CNAME record, then in the verification failure error message it says my A record was not found. But they didn't tell me to create an A record! And over in a help document, it says to create a different TXT record for a subdomain as well as an A record, but doesn't give me an IP address to point the A record to!

 

So, could someone who has successfully verified their domain for branding share what DNS records they created?

I am receiving a massive amount of Zoom registrations that I DID NOT sign up for. Why is Zoom NOT supplying us with the ability to mark these as SPAM like Goto-Webinar does, and STOP THIS MADDNESS?????

 

 I "opt out" of them if I can actually find the link. Some of them are hidden so well that you can't. This IS SPAMMING, and Zoom is allowing it to happen. It's like they have figured out that by using Zoom as the spamming platform, that their SPAM gets straight into the inbox. 

 

C'mon Zoom! FIX THIS!!! Give us the "is the spam" where The spammers CANNOT remove or edit the footer.

When I was the host for an MNC series of webinars on HVAC topics,  I was told that it is not advisable to have a breakout room as the audience may be too large to handle?

 

But when I tried it out during one of the webinars,  I noticed it is possible to do so but you need to prepare your breakout room in advance. You need to do some management of likeminded participant to ensure the audience do not get passive in their interactions.

 

Do share what are your strategies for keeping your breakout room engaged and participative especially for the shy Asian audiences.
