Virtual Events 1.6.0

Summary

Feature Release

This updated version of Virtual Events adds support for YouTube Channels as a video source.

As always, we recommend updating on a staging site, just to be safe, but it should all be smooth sailing.


✨ New

New features included in this release:

  • Changed the video source field to a dropdown menu and moved existing virtual events to the new field.
  • Added support for YouTube Channels as a video source with automatic detection when a streaming video is live.
  • Made accessibility improvements to remove incorrect aria-label from icons and pass label to icon where needed.
