Hello everyone,
As we’re rolling out meeting management, we’ll also be adding information to this thread of frequently asked questions revolving around LFX Meetings.
Meeting set up
Settings for a private restricted meeting:
Private restricted meetings will only allow members who have been invited to join the meeting. If a member tries to join the meeting with a different email address than the one sent in the invite than the user will be unable to join the meeting.
Emails are required when joining a restricted meeting without an LF Account as a guest, and your email address has to be added in the meeting set-up settings in Project Control Center.
You’ll receive the following error message if attempting to join a restricted meeting without using an invited email address as shown below.
Another thing to note here is, Committee Board meetings will always be set to restricted by default; you will still be able to add other guests to the meeting through the manage meetings dashboard.
Settings for public meetings:
One thing to note here is that public meetings are the same as unrestricted meetings also shown here:
Public/non restricted meetings will be available for everyone to join, and email addresses are not required.
Meeting Management
Can you change a single occurrence of a meeting?
Yes, head to an existing meeting and select Manage Meeting to change a single occurrence of a meeting as shown below:
What happens when you make changes to a committee connected your meetings?
If you add a member to a committee, they will be added to all associated meetings
If you remove a member from the committee they will be removed from all associated meetings as well
You can not add or remove members from a committee
