Participant Template Menu

Depending on the user’s permissions, the following options may be available in the Participant Templates menu:

Table 10-13: Participant Templates Options

Option	Description
New Participant	This option appears in the menu if the Participants
	- Add option is set to New and Predefined
	Participants list in the user permissions
	Use this option to define a new participant and add
	the participant to the conference.
Add Participant	This option appears in the menu if the Participants
	- Add option is set to New and Predefined
	Participants list or Predefined Participants list only
	in the user permissions.
	Select this option to link participants from the
	database to the conference.
	The Add Participants window opens, letting you
	select the participants to be linked to this
	Conference template.

In installations in which an LDAP compatible directory is configured as the database, you may assign participants from a public or personal LDAP compatible directory. Two additional options are added to the Participant Templates menu: Add Participants from Public Directory and Add Participants from Private Directory.

When selecting one of these options, the Add Participant window opens, listing the participants currently defined in the public or private LDAP directory. This window is similar to the Add Participant window that opens when adding participants from an Access or SQL database.

Not all the fields that appear in the Participant Properties window are defined in the LDAP directory. The missing information is taken from the currently active Default Participant settings defined in the Web Server Manager.
