Go to the channel dashboard by clicking 'Channels' at the top and select a channel. This will open the channel editor.

You are able to put a channel on your own website with an embed code. Visitors can then see at a glance which webinars are coming up and can register immediately.

Creating and publishing a channel by going to channel in navbar and pressing publish

Edit your channels

You can style your channels to make them match the rest of your website and branding. Click on 'Channels' at the top of the main menu.

Channel in navbar menu

This will open the channel dashboard. Click the channel you want to edit and you will open the channel editor. Set your 'Page Title' and 'Page Description'. You can edit the text by clicking on the title or description. The language used for the initial description is based on the language of your account.

Please note! After publication you have to save changes by clicking on 'Save' in the top right corner.

The banner, logo and title are not displayed in the embedded channel.

Logo

Your logo is automatically added to your channels. We use the light theme logo from your account.

Buttons

You can set the colors of the subscribe button and register buttons on the left side of the editor. Both the background color as well as the text color can be edited. The subscribe button will only be visible when the option 'Build a list of webinar leads' is enabled.

Banner

It’s possible to upload an image to use as a banner on your channels. Do this by clicking on ‘Edit banner’ at the bottom right of the banner space and then clicking ‘Add image’.

Once an image has been chosen you can change the image by hovering over it and pressing ‘Change image’ or remove the image by pressing ‘Remove image’.

Don’t forget to press ‘Save’ to save your changes.

The recommended dimensions for the banner are 800 by 1920 pixels. The safe area is 800x240 px when it comes to an image width of 1920 pixels. That part will always be visible.

Below the image is an option to set a custom alt text for the banner. The alt text of an image is what is shown when the image cannot be loaded and what is read aloud by screen readers. Just enter your desired alt text in the textbox and click ‘Save’.

Channel URL

Open your channel, click on 'Settings' and scroll down to ‘Channel URL’. The last part of the channel URL can be edited. Each channel needs a unique URL; the same URL cannot be used by multiple channels.

One of your channels can be connected to your subdomain. Learn more about that here.

Please note! The old link will not redirect to the channel after you change the URL of the channel.

Channel settings

In the channel editor, click on 'Settings' at the top left to open the settings of your channel. You will see the following options:

  • Channel language: This is the language in which the channel is displayed to the visitors. If you set this to English, visitors will see all buttons and generated text in English. Webinar descriptions and titles are not translated and neither are the main title and description; you will have to translate those manually.

  • Build a list of webinar leads: If this option is enabled, visitors can subscribe to the channel. This way you can keep them informed about new webinars. More information can be found here.

  • Channel URL: This setting allows you to change the channel URL. Read more about that here. You can also opt to publish the channel on the subdomain here. You can read more about that in this article.

  • Unpublish channel: This option allows you to unpublish your channel, which deactivates it. This is only visible after publication.

  • Delete channel: This option allows you to delete your channel, which removes it entirely.

Please note! Deleted channels cannot be recovered.

Adding and removing webinars

Add webinars through the webinar settings

If you only have one channel, you can use the registration settings of a webinar to toggle whether the webinar is visible on your channel or not. The setting can be found in 'Registration' > 'Settings' when editing the webinar in question.

This is enabled by default for new webinars if you select the 'Public' preset during creation. If you don't want to show the webinar on the channel (anymore), turn off the switch in the registration settings.

Please note! This switch is disabled if you have multiple channels. When using multiple channels, you can only add or remove webinars through the channel editor.

Add a webinar series

When adding webinar series, you can only select the first webinar in the series. You can recognize a series by the label 'Webinar series' in the thumbnail. The first webinar will be placed by your upcoming webinars. At the bottom of your channel, all webinars from the series are automatically added in an overview.

Removing a series from your channel can be done by removing the first webinar from the series. This webinar can be found at 'Upcoming webinars' or 'On demand webinars'.

Webinars in a series share a registration page, therefore all thumbnails will be the same.

Thumbnail and description webinar

When you add a webinar to your channel, an image and description will be shown alongside the webinar.

The Metadata image and description are used to generate this information. You can quickly open the Metadata settings by pressing ‘⋮’ > ‘Edit thumbnail’. This will redirect you to the webinars Metadata settings.

The thumbnail always uses an aspect ratio of 16:9 (e.g. 1280x720 or 640x360), the image is resized based on screen size.

We explain more about the Metadata image and description in this article. If you haven’t configured the Metadata settings, the image and text from the left information block of the registration page will be used.
