Kaltura Webcasting - Optional – Set the Comments Configuration

Use the Options tab to determine the behavior of comments in the Webcast event Page. You may allow comments, if you want people to comment on the Event page or disable this feature if you do not want to allow people to comment.

Disabling and Closing Comments

For each of your events, you can:

• Disable the comment feature.
• Prevent additional comments.

1. On the Edit Event page, click Edit for the media you want to edit.
2. Select the Options tab and select the Disable comments for this media checkbox.
   The Comments tab is not displayed on the event page.

Comments that were entered before you disable the comment feature are re-displayed if you enable comments.

1. On the Edit Event page, click Edit next to the video you want to edit.
2. Select the Options tab and select the Close discussion checkbox.
   On the Comments tab of the media page, Comments closed is displayed and the Add a Comment field is not displayed.

Comments are not the same as the Q&A and should not be used for discussion during Live Broadcasts. The Q&A feature is used during Live Broadcasts and is managed and moderated through the Producer Application - see Managing a Live Broadcast.
