Manage waiting attendees through meeting lock functionality

Is it possible to monitor a list of people in the waiting room of a locked meeting and admit them individually? Or can those in the waiting room be admitted to a meeting only "in bulk"?

Hello,

I am using the new GoToMeeting Interface and LOVING it. It's so much simpler and easier to use.
However I am facing one problem.

I use the same Meeting room for most of my one-on-one meetings.
And I often lock the meeting when I am talking to one person to give us privacy (so another person doesn't join).

Earlier I was getting alerts when someone was in the waiting room (due to meeting being locked).
But now, that seems to have stopped :-(
I am no longer getting alerts that "Someone is in waiting..."

While I have your attention...it would be awesome if the alert message could mention the name of the person.
E.g. "John is waiting to join the meeting. Your meeting is currently locked, unlock it to let John in".

Thanks / Avi

Hi Avi,

Thanks for bringing this up, as the feature does not work as it had previously. I'll try to get more info on if/when we'll be bringing back this functionality and update the thread here.
