Configure your event

Once an event is created, you can access it via the Cockpit.

You can edit the event within the cockpit or partly within the event itself.

The Cockpit is found in the top right hand corner of the home menu:

In the cockpit area, select the event that was created. You can do this by selecting the event under Event:

After clicking on the event link, you will be taken to the event. Click on "join the event":

You will then be taken to the event, where you will see the different tabs:

In the configuration panel, you can find advanced settings.

For example, you can choose the default landing area, or even enable event attendees to create rooms:

The table below describes a few of the advanced settings:
