In fact, it\u2019s one of the many special features that make Rumbletalk so great!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/rumbletalk.com\/members-chat\/\">Members Chat<\/a>, one of the RumbleTalk chat types, is an exclusive community chat feature. It allows your members to easily get in touch with each other in a private group chat. You can even use this platform to draw attention to new services or product releases by announcing it directly to your members. It\u2019s simple, it\u2019s fast, and it\u2019s the best way to make sure that your community stays happy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is a Members Chat?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Members Chat is an exclusive group chat that is exclusive to your members only. It\u2019s an interactive way for users to share and learn from each other, or just hang out and have fun. It\u2019s a great way to give your members a sense of belonging and confidence. So, it serves as a real-life community group. A safe space where you can ask questions, make suggestions and connect with others in one spot. Perfect for closed group discussion and membership events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Features of a Members Chat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Add a welcome message<\/strong> &#8211; A <a href=\"https:\/\/rumbletalk.com\/blog\/index.php\/knowledge-base\/add-a-welcome-message\/\">welcome pop-up message<\/a> on your chat encourages visitors to talk to each other. Your message can include brief information about the subject of your group chat, the ground rules, or an ice breaker. Set up your welcome message in a few easy steps.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"799\" height=\"592\" src=\"https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20220124080839\/welcomemessage.png\" alt=\"welcome message\" class=\"wp-image-12478\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20220124080839\/welcomemessage.png 799w, https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20220124080839\/welcomemessage-300x222.png 300w, https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20220124080839\/welcomemessage-768x569.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 799px) 100vw, 799px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Automatic log in through Login SDK <\/strong>&#8211; If you have your own users base and wish to connect it to your RumbleTalk Chat, you can use these API instructions to set it up. With RumbleTalk&#8217;s Login SDK, your users will be logged into your chat automatically. RumbleTalk RESTful API can be used, along with the Login SDK, if more advanced integration is needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. <strong>Moderate the chat as the Chat Users Administrator<\/strong> &#8211; Assign a chat administrator to moderate the virtual room. As the admin, he or she has the power to delete all messages at once. Also, the admin can also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dublBHa1-hU\">mute everyone<\/a> in the chat, useful when you need the members to focus on a presentation or announcement. Other admin features are as follows: <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/bKjauxUqlXc\">Export chat transcript<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/rVn5Idj4aFk\">disconnect or ban users<\/a>, and collect feedback through <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/NRaXJxwUoVQ\">Polls<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20220124081012\/pollsanswer.gif\" alt=\"polls\" class=\"wp-image-12481\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Make video or audio calls<\/strong> &#8211; Aside from sending text messages, your members can also <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/hNQ4-EG6Op0\">make video and audio calls<\/a> in the chat anytime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5. Turn words into links with <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/u3NBNWVy6fk\">Keywords<\/a><\/strong> &#8211; Any word can be linked to a website, a file, a form. For instance, you can use this to send registration forms, members announcement posters, video files, and more. This makes every conversation more efficient. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"776\" height=\"574\" src=\"https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20220124080920\/addkeyword.png\" alt=\"keywords\" class=\"wp-image-12479\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20220124080920\/addkeyword.png 776w, https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20220124080920\/addkeyword-300x222.png 300w, https:\/\/d241b8qep9dzid.cloudfront.net\/20220124080920\/addkeyword-768x568.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 776px) 100vw, 776px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>6.
