Reactions & Emojis in Events
Event attendees can react to live event content through chat messages or through emoji reactions. Emoji reactions can be sent through the emoji icon in the event toolbar in livestream, hybrid, meetings and 1:1 match events, along with roundtables and breakout rooms.
Sending Emoji Reactions
To send an emoji reaction, the attendee selects the emoji of choice from the toolbar at the base of their screen.
The emoji will float up and appear to all attendees with reactions enabled.
Note: Members marked as 'Limited Approval' cannot send emojis during events.
Disabling Emoji Reactions
The emoji reactions can be disabled at any time by the admin event organizer, or event attendee.
Admins and Event Organizers - In Dashboard
Event organizers and admins can disable emoji reactions entirely in livestream and meeting-type events from the event dashboard.
On the General Info page, toggle the Toolbar Reactions (emoji) setting to 'Off' and no participants will be able to send emoji reactions.
Note: This setting can be disabled ahead of the event during event creation, or in real-time during the event.
Event Attendees - In Live Event
If an event attendee chooses to disable the reactions in a meeting or livestream event, they can by selecting the emoji menu icon in their toolbar, and toggling the Reaction 'off'.
This will stop all emojis from appearing immediately and they will not be able to send emojis in reaction, either.
Disabling the reactions will reflect on all stages and meeting rooms throughout the event but can be re-enabled at any time by selecting the emoji icon in their toolbar, and toggling the Reaction back 'On'.
