We have a variety of notifications or sounds to keep you informed about the activities that happen during an Events.com Virtual event. This article will walk you through all the notifications you may hear or see.
Table of Contents:
Joining a Table
- When a guest receives an invitation to join a table, a sound alerts them
- When a guest joins a table, all people at that table are alerted by a sound
You can now disable this sound effect when someone joins a table in your Event Settings Advanced Feature Toggles turn OFF “Enable table knock sound”
Announcements
- When the event host sends an announcement, all guests in the space get notified by a sound

Chat
- A red pop-up circle with the number of unread messages you've got will be shown above the 'Chat' button in your bottom menu toolbar
- If your Chatbox is already open, you'll be able to see the number of unread messages broken down by the different Chat levels
- If you've already got a chat open and you've got other unread messages, you'll be able to see a red circle next to the back arrow on the top left corner of your chatbox
- For Table Chat and Private Chat, guests will also hear a sound notification when a new message comes through. For General Chat there is no sound notification.
