Dear Slido Community Support Team,We have been using Slido for quite some time, and it has consistently met our needs. Typically, before every event we reset the results and Q&A, and the platform works seamlessly.However, during a recent event with over 400 participants spanning five days, we encountered an issue where it shows that we have exceeded the 1,000 participant limit. It appears that Slido registers each unique IP as a new participant, which led to this restriction. To address this, we duplicated the event and created a new one, but this resulted in multiple event links and fragmented statistical data, making post-event analysis challenging.Given our event structure, we use a single event containing over 50 polls, which are organized into different sessions. Duplicating events merges all questions and disrupts the arrangement of our polls as we still prefer to use the old platform as the new platform does not have session separation.We would like to know if there is a way

Hello SLIDO-Team,… we would like to confront our pilots with four questions, each of which they should answer after listening to different audio information. The question is always the same:  How would you feel in your respective roles in this situation? - But the previously varying audio information would influence how you answer. The four questions should be answered by a group of co-pilots and a group of captains so that the results can be compared and visualized at the end. Answers should be possible on a scale from 1 (very relaxed) to 5 (very tense). It would be great to use a "touch function" on the participants' cellphones to enter a value between 1 and 5 every time they vote so that at the end you get a comparison of two groups for four runs. Is this possible with SLIDO? Best wishes, Heri 

I purchased a one-time event plan (Engage) and tested it to ensure it worked correctly at presentation site - did that inadvertently count for my “one-time?”I entered the event dates 13 February - 20 February, but tested today 14 February.Do I need to re-purchase the plan or re-create the event within my PPT?

I have created a Word cloud in PPT but the responses are not showing up as they are submitted. I have to forward the slide and then go back in order for the words to populate. When submitting words on my phone, they occasionally do not populate the Word cloud. I am running the PPT from my desktop. Why is this happening? I have cleared the Word cloud in the app and viewed the settings, but it is still not working properly. Please advise.  

Hello. I’ve seen Slido fail during live presentations and I don’t know why. But I figured I’m going to take a leap of faith and try it during two presentations next month. My question … can I still use Mac power point Presenter mode and have the slides work? I like to be able to see my notes if needed when I present. Any other advice for how to utilize the software without it quitting? For example, do all participants need to be on same wifi or can they use a mix of cell data and wifi? Just trying to stack the odds in my favor for this working. 

First does this matter? If so, how do I remove the old version from my Slido and get the new version show? Help Please.

Hello,How many participants can join the Quiz in the unpaid version?  Many ThanksVeronika 

How do I export survey results? I can see how I live present results, but can’t figure out how I can export / non-live sharing of results.

I’m trying to run a live survey where i ask basic questions like, what day of the week is your office busiest? And our CEO would prefer that the answers (monday, tuesday, wednesday, etc) remain static as the answers appear on the screen and have only the percentages move around. Is this possible? I tried both ranking and multiple choice and both appear to have the results jump around depending on the most popular answer. Any experts out there that can offer up some help? Thanks!

I uninstalled the extention but it still shows up on my menu bar.

How many multiple choice questions can you add to a PowerPoint presentation?

Is there a way for me to setup a survey on Slido and have people respond to all the survey questions after they enter the slido survey site?

Can you duplicate questions in a survey? If so, how?

Can you limit responses to one per device?

I am pulling together a powerpoint presentation and want to include 6 multiple choice slides using slido - it will only let me include 2 - whay is this? How can i get more functionality and include more Kindest regards Nathan

We have a men and women sections separated, and there is a Q&A section and the women usually use the QR that they have to send their questions through. Just wondering if I can leave the same QR for the meeting over weeks without needing to renew that QR every week etc? (I am using the basic plan)

We have an enterprise account with 3 users. Can i add other people to our team just as guests for free? Or do I need to add them as members? I’d like to invite people in our unit so that when they present, they could use our account.

We have a quiz question (has to be a quiz, not a multiple choice) that allows for multiple correct responses. Is there a way to restrict students to selecting only one option? If they choose more than 1, their score can exceed the maximum, and I have to fix by hand.

Couldn’t find any information on this topic online, therefore placing my question here.Our organisation is using Slido as part of our existing Webex licenses but I cannot find anywhere what type of Slido license is included here - specifically how many participants are supported within it.Can anyone please provide this information?

I have integrated questions and a poll into PowerPoint. The same PowerPoint will be shown to three different groups of people, one after another. If I reset the slido, will I lose all data or will it be archived somewhere? Or do I need to download data after each session, then reset, to get a fresh slate for the next group of attendees?

Good evening, I need to create a vote where one of the voters has the value of their highest vote.Let me explain, if everyone is worth 1, his vote is worth 5.Is there a way?

I use the present mode to display incoming questions to a moderator on a laptop. The laptop serves only as a screen and cannot be operated by the moderator. A team editor selects and highlights the questions during the live broadcast.When a poll is started, the Present mode on the laptop immediately switches as well, indicating that a poll is in progress.How can I prevent this? Which parameter can I append to the URL to ensure that questions are still displayed despite an ongoing poll, e.g.:https://wall.sli.do/event/123456?mode=showpollshttps://wall.sli.do/event/123456?mode=showquestion

I run my Slido polls in WebEx and would like to know:  If I have a Survey of, say 12 multiple choice questions - how can I show the results of all the questions at once? This was standard in WebEx, but now I’m having to show the results one by one and it takes up more time than necessary.  If there is a way of just showing all the results at once, it would be so much less hassle.

Is it possible to edit poll responses to correct spelling mistakes and errors. I like to use the word clouds in presentations but it looks unprofessional with errors.

I have a couple of questions regarding the multiple rooms.  Are we able to use these rooms as sort of “breakout rooms” where teams will have separate codes and go in and respond on the polls/questions being asked?  Follow up - Will we be able to collect these responses to broadcast it to the wider team?
