Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about ConnectSphere

Yes for any real audience. The default URL is a shared demo. For live courses you need Janus Gateway (videoroom + textroom), WSS, and usually coturn.

Shortcode [connectsphere_room] (same as 1.6.0) or the Gutenberg block ConnectSphere Room. Both render the same template and load Janus only on that page.

Janus can, if the server has CPU, RAM, and bandwidth. Plan a dedicated VPS (about 2 vCPU / 2 GB RAM) once you pass roughly ten concurrent publishers. The WordPress plugin does not magically scale the gateway.

They are likely behind a firewall that blocks peer-to-peer. Configure a working TURN server (not only STUN). URLs must use the stun: / turn: prefixes; Janus must be wss://.

Yes. ConnectSphere → Room appearance → Light. That setting does not restyle wp-admin.

A Pro with recording, waiting room, and LMS hooks is planned, not shipped. Do not expect those features in 1.7.0.

The author offers installation (Janus, coturn, TLS/WSS, firewall, test) from €249 on your VPS, or a turnkey package from €449. See https://profiles.wordpress.org/tlloancy/
