Hello,

I am helping put together a conference happening in early November. It is a multi-day conference that has talks happening at the same time, and we ideally want to live stream them all too.

The idea was to have a main webinar that people joined, and then they could decide what talk they wanted to go to, and join the breakout room of their choice. However, it appears that the webinar feature of zoom does NOT include breakout rooms.

Is there a way to have multiple webinars at the same time that people could join, or should we just use meetings instead? Is there any other layout anyone would suggest?

Thanks for reading 🙂

I would like to play a pre-recorded video file into a webinar live. How can I do it seemlessly, so the participants will not notice it is a pre-recorded video? 

Should I open a video player and share my screen (as a host) before the webinar start? or any better way to start the webinar?

Regards,

I am trying to add a custom country list as a custom question but it continues to tell me "a question like this already exists" does anyone know if I can do this? The same thing is happening when trying to add a customized Job Title List.

Thanks in advance

Last year when using Webinars I could see the list of Attendees while I was in a practice session prior to opening the webinar. When testing my set up this year, I don't seem to be able to see the attendees until I start the webinar. Sometimes I want to promote an attendee to panelist before the webinar starts but I can't do that if I can't see who is waiting for the session to start. Has this changed? Can I no longer see Attendees waiting for the webinar to start? If it was changed, why? It was very useful seeing who and how many were waiting for the webinar to start.

I just saw that Zoom did not send out the usual 24 hour reminder message to webinar participants. Somehow the settings got changed or I did not create the webinar from my template. So I have to send it manually. But I also found out that I can't send a message to participants on Zoom. I can't even resend people's confirmation e-mails, well I could, but we have 400 registrants and Zoom makes me wait 60 seconds after sending 11 of them, so it would take an excrutiating half an hour, and even then it would send the wrong message 'you have confirmed' not '24 hour warning'. And I can't download the registrant list before a webinar. So I had to scrape all the names off the registrant list, tidy up the columns, load it into bulk e-mailing software, and send a message to everyone, but even then I had to say, the link to login is not in this message, you should get it from zoom one hour before.  So I feel like Zoom designers are almost going out of their way to  make my life more difficult

We have a huge online event this upcoming Sunday and I had made the webinar link.

But when it clicked, it says 

"Unable to join this webinar. The webinar has expired. (Error Code : 3038)"

But in my reserved webinar list, this webinar room exists.

Does anyone know how to solve this situation?
