This particular "RSVP" feature is more of a custom solution, however if you create an upcoming event within your channe's configurations, users can sign up for email reminders of your events. Please see the attached screenshot. You can find out more from the following link in our user guide:

Excellent.

I've added an event and see the Remind me email form. When does the reminder get sent? Is it possible for us to get a list of the email addresses for people who have submitted the form?

Thanks for your help!

berkleemusic,

Your viewers will get an email reminder about 30 minutes prior to the event, and an additional reminder when the event begins.

Currently it's not possible to get a list of viewers who RSVP, however if you require that your viewers submit an email address to view your channel, you can access that list.

Best,
Jason

So are you saying the only place people can see the upcoming events and sign up for reminders is on the channel page?

If I have the premium version, can I see upcoming events on my embedded widget???

If not, it's a massive oversight.

BigBrain,

What sort of embeddable widget are you referring to?

[BigBrain]

I mean when embedding your channel on a website. Is it possible to see the upcoming events and email reminder on this embed the same way as when you are on the actual channel?

Currently the only place for users to see upcoming events is from your channel page on Livestream.com

yeah, so while you can embed the channel on your site, you can't promote upcoming events or have viewers reminded without them having to visit the channel page, or creating your own custom reminder, which I have had to do. So this is a major flaw.

BigBrain,

The RSVP feature is relatively new, but developing it further is definitely on our roadmap. We have plans to add a lot more functionality in the future. I'll make sure our dev team sees your feedback from this thread.

Best,
