After upgrading to Cisco MeetingPlace Web version 4.1.0.34 (or later), the Who can join meeting control disappeared from the Meeting Security page. Why?
A. The Who can join meeting control was purposely removed from the Preferences template page because it caused some confusion among users. In particular, if a scheduler selects Invited users only and then proceeds to invite some guest users as well as profiled users, the scheduler expects those designated guests to be able to attend. In fact, the Cisco MeetingPlace server has no way of knowing which guest is which, and therefore prevents any guest from attending the meeting. Only the invitees with Cisco MeetingPlace profiles can attend the meeting. The Cisco MeetingPlace Web uses the default template of SchedPrefs_fr.tpl, which does not have the Who can join meeting control. There is another template, SchedPrefs_wcjm_fr.tpl, which has the Who can join meeting control. Customers who would like to continue to offer this feature should rename SchedPrefs_wcjm_fr.tpl to SchedPrefs_fr.tpl, and the Who can join meeting feature may be restored.
