With the imminent demise of the Church Webcast Service / Portal, has anyone come up with a suitable, manageable replacement for the functionality provided by the "mywebcast.churchofjesuschrist.org/Events/<stakename>" webpage that provided a consistent, stable / static place for members to always be able to find and view the meeting webcasts available to be viewed?
My Stake President loves this capability, as it provides him a way to drop in on any of the webcast meetings in the Stake without having to track down a current link.
With ZOOM, even if the meetings are set up as recurring, a different unique link is required for each meeting type and Unit.
He is also concerned with the ability / accessibility of individual ZOOM meeting links for our Senior population, some of which are not as adept with current technology.
I inquired with the Meetinghouse Technology Group and the Broadcast Support Group at Church Headquarters and they indicate that there is no (current) plan to replace that functionality.
I know that some Units have set up Stake and Ward Facebook accounts and/or groups, but I am somewhat concerned with the idea of using one of the commercial social media services for this type of more or less 'official' Church Unit information.
Any ideas, experiences, and/or suggestions would be very appreciated.
