    Hi,

    In a multi user site, such as 1000 teacher users, where each teacher will launch their own zoom meeting, I am trying to find out how this plugin would work.

    As Admin with my own personal zoom account , when I am adding a new meeting, I see
    my zoom account is listed in “add new meeting form”

    When a teacher user logs in and tries to add new meeting, the teacher also sees
    my (admin zoom account) in “add new meeting form”.

    My goal is for each teacher to use their own zoom account when launching a zoom meeting. When I try to add a zoom user, it indicates “this functionality is available for Pro Zoom Account”.

    Ideally, my use case would work as follows:

    1. I should be able to add a user in “Zoom add user screen”, by selecting a username
    from existing users in my wordpress site, not adding zoom user via an email address.
    2. When a user (a teacher) with above username (that is added to “Zoom list of users” by me (admin)), logs into the site and creates a new zoom meeting, their zoom account should be displayed in the add zoom meeting form.

    Is above use case possible to achieve ?

    Thanks !

    After posting above question, logged in to my personal free basic zoom account and added a free basic teacher user.

    This teacher user showed up in my wordpress site under users.

    Then, I logged in to my wordpress site as a teacher user to create a zoom meeting. In zoom meeting create form, for hosting options, it shows both “my admin user id” and “teacher user id”.

    Thus far it makes sense for how technical implementation works. To implement what I have asked in the beginning of the question:

    A. When a teacher logs in and creates a zoom meeting, the host selection should only show teacher user id (not my admin id in zoom.us or any other teacher ids). This is only possibly to captured logged in user and filter out all other users from the host tentry in the meeting create form.

    B. The teacher user registered in zoom.us under my account, somehow should be associated with teacher’s user account in wordpress site.

    Any feedback on how to achieve this task ?

    Hi @mbaysf

    A. This can be done by adding define("VIDEO_CONFERENCING_HOST_ASSIGN_PAGE", true); this line in your wp-config.php file.

    You will then see a menu call “Host to WP Users” – Goto this page and assign your Zoom users to your WordPress users. This is a manual process at the moment.

    After selecting a certain Zoom user to a WP user – Only the selected host should appear in meeting create form for other users.

    B. Same process for this.

    For some reason if all your users do not show in “Host to WP Users page” this is because of roles. Add roles by using this filter https://gist.github.com/techies23/685bb40d5fd6d09b9debe6e6726ccb4e
