The Event Settings tab allows you to configure how users join, interact with, and experience events. Settings can be customized by event type, giving you flexibility across meetings, webinars, livestreams, 1:1 match events, and hybrid events.
Onboarding Requirements
Control whether attendees must complete onboarding steps before joining or interacting with events. You can require users to complete their profile before they are allowed to join or engage with an event through Chat, Q&A, and Polls.
Requirements can be configured per event type
Use the toggle controls to:
Require profile completion before joining or interacting
Allow access without profile completion, if onboarding is optional
Default Member Type Requirement for Registration
Community admins can configure which member types are eligible to register by default for each event type. This helps create consistent registration rules for future events while still allowing flexibility at the event level.
Important notes
Each event type must include at least one allowed member type
Default settings apply only to future events
Event-level settings can override the default configuration
Online Event Interactions
Manage how attendees can participate during online events. Use toggles to enable or disable specific interaction features within events.
Raise Hand (Webinars)
Enable Raise Hand to allow attendees to signal they want to speak
Hosts can promote attendees to the stage for live audio or video participation
Breakout Rooms (Webinars)
Enable Breakout Rooms to split attendees into smaller discussion groups
Ideal for workshops, networking, or collaborative sessions
Noise Cancellation
Noise Cancellation is available for all communities and is on by default. When enabled, members will see the noise cancellation control when they join the meeting room and can turn noise cancellation on or off during the meeting.
To disable noise cancellation for an event, turn off the Noise Cancellation toggle in Event Settings. When this setting is off, the noise cancellation control will not appear in the meeting room.
Noise cancellation applies to meeting events, roundtables, webinars, 1:1 matches, livestream meeting rooms, and sponsor booths. It is not available in Safari or on mobile web.
Turning this setting on or off does not change sessions that are already running. The change applies the next time a member joins.
Live Captions
Control live captioning availability to improve accessibility and engagement. Live captions can be toggled on or off depending on the event type:
Meeting Events
Webinar Events
Livestream and Hybrid Events
