Auto-Promote Attendees as Moderators with New Email Field

Managing your events just got easier with more control over who moderates your sessions. We’ve introduced a new option in the Talk & Replay Experience settings that allows you to pre-designate attendees who should automatically receive moderator privileges when they join a talk.

What’s New

  • New setup field: Add email addresses under Attendee Emails to Auto-Promote as Moderators to automatically grant moderator status.

  • Streamlined moderation: Anyone listed will instantly gain the ability to manage chat, Q&A, and polls during the session—no manual promotion required.

  • Team flexibility: Ideal for recurring contributors or trusted participants you want to empower from the start.

  • Applies to new chat system only: This feature is available exclusively for events using our upgraded chat experience, which is now rolling out to all new events.

No more scrambling to assign moderators during live sessions—just set it up once, and you’re good to go.
