Live Q&A

Introduction

Viafoura’s Live Q&A tool allows you to host real-time, moderated question-and-answer sessions directly on your site - fostering dynamic, two-way engagement between your audience and featured hosts or experts.

Your audience can submit questions, reply, and react in real time without needing to refresh the page, allowing them to participate in interactive discussions as the event unfolds. Use this for live interviews, town halls, product launches, or event-based conversations.

Installation

Step 1: Install the Viafoura Javascript

The Viafoura Live Q&A component requires the Viafoura base JavaScript to be installed on the page where this component is to appear.

Step 2: Add the Live Q&A code to your page

Add the following code to the page where you want the Live Q&A to appear.

If you are using article-level container ids, then you will not need to specify your container id in this code:

<div class="viafoura">
  <vf-livequestions></vf-livequestions>
</div>

If you are using widget-level container ids, then use this:

<div class="viafoura">
  <vf-livequestions vf-container-id=“[ENTER UNIQUE ID]“></vf-livequestions>
</div>

Step 3: Refresh browser to view the rendered version

Note

A moderator or admin level user must load the page in order for the Live Q&A to be initiated and configured

Once you are authenticated with sufficient privileges, you should see the Live Q&A settings and the post box at the position you put the code and should look like this:
