How to enable or disable audience participation in the Main Feed

Enabling or Disabling Audience Participation in the Main Feed

The Live Feed feature allows event participants to share posts and engage with each other. By controlling audience participation settings, you can determine whether only admins can post content or if all attendees can contribute to the conversation in your event's Main Feed.

When to use

  • When you want to restrict posting to admins only for important announcements
  • When you need to control the flow of information in the Main Feed
  • When you want to create a one-way communication channel from organizers to attendees
Only users with Event Manager or Administrator permissions can modify Live Feed settings.

How to do it

    Log in to your Cadence admin dashboard.
    Navigate to your event management page.
    Select Live Feed from the left navigation menu.
    Click the Settings tab at the top of the page.
    Locate the "Disable Audience Participation (Main Feed)" checkbox in the settings panel.
    Check the box to restrict posting to admins only, or leave it unchecked to allow all attendees to post.
When audience participation is disabled, admins are the only users who can like, comment, or create Live Feed Posts in the Main Feed; all other users are only able to view these posts.
    Click Save to apply your changes.
    Verify your settings by viewing the Live Feed as an attendee would see it.
