Clicking on the General Settings tab on the left-hand side of the page allows you to edit some of the settings related to an event.
Display Time Zone - Set the time zone you want displayed on the Captions Pages of your event.
Expire event - Choose how long you would like the content delivered to your event’s captions page and widget to be available for after the event is over. Once the event expires the captions pages are no longer available. The maximum value is 120 days. You can also manually expire an event at any time from the event page.
Delay captions - Delay when your captions are delivered. Adding a delay is useful when the captioner is getting low latency access to the source audio but the stream to the delivery platform is being delayed. You would add delay to make sure the captions appearing for your attendees are appearing at approximately the same time they are being spoken.
Event logo - Replace the default SyncWords logo near the top right of the various caption pages with your own logo. You can upload a PNG, GIF, or JPG. We recommend using a logo that works well with a light background and uses transparency. Logo will be resized to max 70px height or 190px width.
NOTE: Removing your logo will put the default SyncWords logo back on the page. If you don't want a logo present, you can either hide the event information or upload a blank white image as a logo.
Hide event information - Turn this on to hide the title, subtitle, date, logo, and time of your event on the various Captions pages.
Disable Captions page - Turn this on to disable the various Caption pages. The widget and other services will remain available.
