Alternate Host feature does not work

We hosted a webinar today. User A was the main host, and User B was assigned within the webinar set up interface as the alternate host. User B received the email from zoom with the note about being an alternate host. 

 

When User B tries to click on the Start Webinar button, it says you must sign in as the host to start the webinar. That clearly defeats the purpose of an alternate host being able to start things. And would require you to log in with User A's credentials, which is what we ended up doing. 

 

User B also tried to just simply join the webinar using the reminder email. That didn't work either. 

 

Any experience here on how to solve these challenges? Thanks.

Resolved! Waiting Room Stats

Does anyone know if there are any reporting stats available for the webinar waiting room? For instance, if we wanted to see how many people viewed the waiting room video and for how long, is there a way to access that information?

Resolved! How do I edit the "organized by" field in a Zoom Event?

I searched in the Community. I do not see a "hosted by" in my even configure page. I am setting up a webinar and it is showing my personal name for the event organizer. I need it to show the Company name.

Hi, Is it possible to change the speed of comments in a zoom chat with 800 people? We hold a monthly webinar and it is primarily to provide information and to answer questions. Our events usually have 500-800 viewers and the chat moves very quickly. Is there a way to slow the movement of the chat so we can easily see questions?

My recording doesn't show me as the speaker talking!!

I just did a meeting and recorded it, the recording NEVER showed me talking. The people DID see me while I talked. The only thing "off" I notice is that MY personal setting was to gallery view not speaker.

Hi,

 

in my Event configuration I have selected the option to record the event directly when the event is started. It should be stored on my local PC.

 

But, when the event is really startet, the recording doesn't start as expected. Starting it manually was working. But I expected it to be started automatically.

 

Is there any setting I have missed?

 

 

Best Regards

Björn

Zoom Events - Exhibitor's Representative Emails

Hi Folks,

 

This past week, I have been having trouble with getting the "representatives" in the exhibitors to receive access to their virtual booths. It appears that the "Exhibitor" invitation, through communication/emails, only sends to the exhibitor contact. I then tried sending in special roles, and only half of the representatives received emails. If they received the email invite from  it asked them to log-in. Everyone's email was inserted correctly (we checked that together).
 
I could only find this support article, yet it did not help me answer my questions below.

 

My two questions are as follows:
1) Do representatives in the exhibitors need to download the Zoom desktop client?
2) Does anyone know a workaround in getting representatives, not exhibitor contact, an email with their "join" link?

 

Many thanks,

Syd

Hello,

Yesterday I had a webinar using Zoom Events. In the settings, I had explicitly switched on that the recording should take place locally and immediately at the start of the event.
I relied on that. Unfortunately.
At the end of the webinar, only the chat was saved. Nothing more. So why is this setting there if it doesn't work? Is there still a chance to access the recording?

 


Greetings
Björn
