Max Number of Participants

Max number of participants allows the user to set a cap on how many users can join the event.

You can access it via editing the session that was setup for the webinar/event.

Or during the actual creation of the session in the settings area.

Once you turn on the option for Max number of participants and set a number (e.g. 20), the option for Waiting list opens up. We will explain how that works below!


Waiting List

Waiting list allows the users to sign up for a waiting list, this is useful as this allows users to show interest in the session. This lets the instructor know how many users (who aren’t already signed up) are interested in the session for next time.

Once the maximum number of participants are set, the option for "waiting list" will open. Turning this on will allow users to join a waiting list for the webinar/event.

On the users side, they will see the upcoming event on the home page of their platform. Clicking it will allow them to join the event.

If there are no more spots left in the session, the user will be able to sign up for the waiting list. Once they are on the waiting list, they will receive a notification once a spot is available.
