The Virtual Stage and Networking Hub have multiple different Chats - each meant for different purposes. It is important that the messages you send are being sent to the appropriate Chat based on the audience of your message!
Here is a breakdown of the different Chats:
Virtual Stage
Event Chat - this is the main event chat for all attendees and messages are shared to all
On Stage Chat - this is private chat meant to share messages amongst all hosts and presenters of the event e.g. speaker cues, technical troubleshooting, etc.
Private Chat - this space allows you to start and manage private chats with any person in attendance of the event
Networking Hub
Hub Chat - this is the main chat for all users within a Networking Hub despite what Circle they may be in (similar to Event Chat)
Circle Chat - this is unique to each Circle within a Networking Hub and provides an intimate space for all to engage within the Circle
Organizers Chat - this is a private chat meant to share messages amongst all hosts, presenters, and circle owners of a Networking Hub (similar to On Stage Chat)
Private Chat - this space allows you to start and manage private chats with any person in attendance of the Networking Hub
All attendees can collapse the chat by selecting the arrow at the top-left hand section of the chat to remove any and all distractions! To clear or delete a message(s) from the Chat, check out this article.
