    Hi Klance,

    The only way for a chat exchange to happen between the Attendee and the Host is if the Host had no Panelists.  The Host and Panelists do see all the chat exchanges in the webinar; even if the Host direct messaged to the Attendee.  As long as there is a Panelist in the webinar the chat will be seen.   The Host could demote all Panelist(s) and then the chats would not be seen in a direct message.

     

    If this solved your issue, please consider marking as solution accepted to help others. 

    Thank you,
