Ideas for Arc XP

Streamline livestream creation and application

Sorry if this is a Graham-specific request, but a few tweaks would greatly streamline creating a new livestream:

1) Why must I specify a primary website to start a stream as I can only have permissions to my own? And with up to 20 streams available for each of seven stations in the right rail, there's a lot of scrolling to pick the one I need.

2) When picking a Event Thumbnail, it seems to pull unpublished images or images too large to use without allowing me to know that before I select it. Then, when it won't save, you have to start a new image search.

3) I would greatly help for livestreams to provide a URL so it can be used as a link in a story, in a social media post or in an email to the writer assigned to write or update a story with the information from the livestream.

I know that's a lot for one idea post, but they are all issues that each web editor at WJXT faces every day. Thanks for your consideration.
