How to Create Your First Meeting

This guide shows how to create your first meeting in MeetingHub and display it on your WordPress website.


Before You Start #

Make sure:

  • MeetingHub is installed and active
  • Your preferred meeting platform is configured
  • You have admin access to WordPress

Tip: For a quick test, you can start with Jitsi Meet before connecting platforms like Zoom, Google Meet, Webex, or Microsoft Teams.


Step 1: Open Add New Meeting #

From your WordPress dashboard, go to:

MeetingHub → All Meetings → Add New

Step 2: Add Meeting Details #

Enter the basic meeting information.

Add:

  • Meeting title
  • Meeting description
  • Date
  • Start time
  • Timezone
  • Thumbnail/image, if needed

Best Practice: Use a clear title like Weekly Product Demo or Live Class: Module 1 so users instantly understand the meeting purpose.


Step 3: Configure Meeting Options #

Depending on the selected platform, you may see extra options.

Common options may include:

  • Meeting password
  • Host information
  • Waiting room
  • Registration
  • Recurring meeting
  • Join before host
  • Meeting visibility

Only enable the options you actually need.


Step 4: Publish the Meeting #

After adding the required details, click Publish.

Once published, the meeting will be saved in:

MeetingHub → All Meetings → Copy Meeting Shortcode

After publishing, copy the meeting shortcode.

It may look similar to this:


Step 6: Display Meeting on a Page #

Create or edit the page where you want to show the meeting.

Go to:

Pages → Add New
Or, go to any page where you want to add this meeting

Paste the meeting shortcode into the page content area.

Then click Publish or Update.

Common First-Time Mistakes #

Wrong Time or Timezone #

If the meeting time looks incorrect, check the timezone inside:

Settings → General → Timezone

Also check the meeting timezone inside MeetingHub.


Shortcode Not Showing the Meeting #

Make sure:

  • The shortcode is copied correctly
  • The meeting is published
  • The meeting ID is valid
  • MeetingHub is active
