Conference "wheel" no longer allows new presenter

[abigail3]

What happened to the option in the conference to allow another person to take over presenting?

Hello @abigail3 ...

I am not sure of an answer for you, but I would like to bring @ffdixon into this conversation in hopes that he will be able to help answer your question. Good luck to you!

Hi,

I am the product manager for BigBlueButton. While I work at Blindside Networks, the company that provides hosting for Canvas Conferences to Instructure, and can't speak on behalf of Instructure, I can respond to your question.

The '+' button is only visible to moderators. This allows any moderator to take presenter control.  All moderators have a square avatar in the Users list (viewers have a circular avatar).

How are you joining the course -- has anything changed?  Do you have a square avatar and see '+' button below the presentation area?

Regards,... Fred
