常见问题:
Do I need a BigBlueButton server?
Yes. Cloud A1 Meetings for BigBlueButton is a WordPress integration and does not provide the conferencing infrastructure itself. You may use a self-hosted BigBlueButton installation or a compatible third-party provider.
What credentials are required?
You need the BigBlueButton API URL and shared API Secret supplied by the server administrator or provider.
How is the API Secret stored?
The API Secret is encrypted before it is stored in the WordPress database. Cloud A1 Meetings for BigBlueButton uses libsodium and a key derived from the WordPress authentication salt. The saved secret is never displayed again.
Can teachers or LMS instructors manage meetings?
Yes. Administrators can authorize existing WordPress roles to moderate BBB meetings and assign specific users to individual meetings. A moderator only sees and controls assigned meetings.
How do participants join a meeting?
Add the [bbb_connect meeting_id="123"] shortcode to a page or post, replacing 123 with the WordPress meeting ID. The form works in standard content, page builders, and LMS content that processes WordPress shortcodes.
Can participant access be password protected?
Yes. Each meeting can use an optional participant password. Incorrect attempts are rate limited.
Can moderators approve participants?
Yes. When moderator approval is enabled, participants remain in the BigBlueButton waiting room until a moderator admits them.
Can I manage recordings?
Yes. Administrators and assigned moderators can view available recordings, open playback formats, copy playback links, and permanently delete authorized recordings. Deletion requires confirmation and is recorded in an administrative audit history.
Why does a finished recording not appear immediately?
BigBlueButton processes recordings after a meeting ends. Availability depends on the server, recording duration, and processing queue.
How can I diagnose connection problems?
Go to Tools > Site Health to run the connection test. The Information tab includes a Cloud A1 Meetings for BigBlueButton section that can be copied for technical support without revealing secrets or private endpoint paths.
Does Cloud A1 Meetings for BigBlueButton collect usage data?
No. Cloud A1 Meetings for BigBlueButton does not include analytics, telemetry, advertising trackers, or automatic reporting to Cloud-A1. The plugin communicates only with the BigBlueButton endpoint configured by the site administrator when performing requested connection tests, meeting operations, participant access, recording operations, or Site Health checks.
Is BBB Cloud A1 required?
No. Cloud A1 Meetings for BigBlueButton works with any compatible BigBlueButton server. BBB Cloud A1 is presented only as an optional server provider in the administrator settings.
