Welcome, you are logged in to CommunityBridge – We host BigBlueButton (BBB), a privacy protecting video chat platform created by educators, for the community.

Creating A Room:

You should see a black toolbar at the top of the screen with a link to +New – click to create your room.

• Add your Room name/title on the top and add your preferred description below the title. Your description may include images and media.
• BBB auto-generates the access codes for the moderator and viewer, however, you have the option to change the access codes
• NOTE* When setting the access codes/passwords to your room, use ONLY alphanumeric numbers, and letters, do not use any odd characters or punctuation.
• If you want to enable recording for the room, then select the Recordable checkbox. Your recordings will appear on your room entry page below the “Join” button.
• If you want the participants to wait until the moderator joins the Room, then select the Wait for Moderator checkbox.
• Click *Publish, review the changes and then click Publish again, if things look good.

*There is a two-step process to Publish your room. Once you have added a Title (Room name) you may optionally add text below the room name, as a descriptor for the room or for an event. You will be able to edit this text at any time. You can open a new tab and edit while you are in a meeting in the other tab. Some find it helpful to post the event agenda on the room entry page.
