BigBlueButton 3.0 new layouts

[acevedo...@gmail.com]

Hi,
I have posted biefore this question in the group of BBB-users, but unfortunately didn't receive any answer, so I'm posting now in this group, hopping someone can guide me:

I have just installed a new server with BBB 3.0, but can't find the new layouts that was anounced as new features for BBB 3.0:

"Several new layouts have been added ("Cameras Only", "Presentation Only", "Participants and Chat Only", and "Media Only") to address various use cases of hybrid education - for example splitting views of the BigBlueButton session to be visible on different physical screens."

Is there some change to be applied to a configuration file?

Thanks for your guidance

Hi!

To set them you'd have to pass the layout on join

See https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton/pull/21409

>How to test
>Join meeting with custom parameter: enforceLayout=MEDIA_ONLY

See also the enforceLayout description in https://docs.bigbluebutton.org/development/api/#get-join

Hi Anton,
Thanks for your response.
We use BigBlueButton with Moodle as the main frontend.
How can we pass the parameter from Moodle or from Greenlight?

For Moodle you can use this subplugin since 4.3: https://github.com/blindsidenetworks-ps/moodle-bbbext_bnurl
