If I’m holding 5 separate in-person meetings at the same time and moderators want to utilize slido, is it possible to create and run 5 different events, each with unique polls, at the same time? 

Hey Slido Community,I am putting together a training presentation and was hoping to include the word cloud question.I love that they display the answers and as the more popular repeated answers/key words get mentioned they grow in size. However, is there a function that allows us to approve/vet the answers before they appear on the word cloud? Our higher ups voiced concerns about the possibility of people entering whatever they want (disparaging, abusive and or harassing comments)  Thank you.A

How does word cloud select the responses it displays? I know it shows the most common responses as a bigger font but many of the responses only have 1 vote. It doesn't seem to post the most recent responses. Just asking since some responses, which had very different topics, weren't reflected on the main screen. Thanks!

Is there an option in the settings to disable upvotes? So that I can use the Q&A tool but not give the audience the option to upvote/promote questions?  

I’m having trouble understanding if I will need to ask participants to use their name/not be anonymous when joining/answering questions if I want to link response answers over time + across questions to a single responder? I don’t care so much about knowing WHO exactly the responder is (i.e. I don’t really need to know their name per se), but I would like the ability to analyze after the fact observation such as “if Participants 1234, 555, and 789 answered “Choice B” on a question on day 1, they almost always chose “Choice D” on a related question on day 2” if that makes sense. Can someone help me understand if this type of analysis would be possible just based on the unique “Participant ID” column I saw in the example exported data screenshot?  Or will that “Participant ID” change across days or across usages such that this is not possible?

Hello Team, Is there a slido tool to add a randomizer or spinner?  Usecase: I use slido to drive in person and online participant engagement.  Is there a way to generate a random number?  or a spinner or some kind?  Thank you, Chef_dd

Hi, I want to keep an event Q&A open for a year as a form of online suggestion box/ permanent Q&A. At present it is only letting me open an event for 7 days at a time. How do I get round this?

Hi. I only seem to be able to have a Q&A slido open for a maximum of one week. Is there any way to extend this so that I can host a slido link for longer, or ideally forever? My company only uses the most basic membership for Slido. Would this change if we were to upgrade?

I am organizing a song contest. The visitors have to choose from 20 participants, 3 that they think are the best. We don't want them to be able to change their choice after voting. They should not be able to vote again, when they refresh the website. And is there a fraud check built in?  Are these options in Slido and which subscription should I have?

How many participants can join my slido on the free basic plan?

Is there a maximum number of responses allowed for a poll? (In total, not per user.)  I’m running an event for a large org with over 30,000 users and want to ensure that all poll responses will be captured. 

Hi , I’m searching how to find the names of the winners in a poll.When they create their name and answered the polls how do you see the evolutions of the winners , good answers in a poll?

I set up my account linked to google and now I want to remove this to avoid having to to log in through google. Is there a way to do this without losing my interactions?

Dear All, I have been using Slido for few years without any issue. Recently I am facing a problem launching Slido from PowerPoint, Slido is not launching till the Norton Antivirus Firewall is disabled which is risky especially when conducting a full day training workshop, please advise in this regard.  

How do you prevent people using ChatGTP or other AI bots to search for correct answers to multiple choice questions? Currently you can cut and paste question and all answers into AI bot and it gives you answer. Can you block ability to cut and paste text?- HELP!

Hi there, I noticed you are scrapping Slido Switcher, so I have a question regarding the integrated Powerpoint for Slido, which I’ve not really used.I have a Mac and prepare all slides using the Powerpoint app. I have the Slido integration for that, so I’m happy to prepare slides that way.However, before our events, we are often advised to send the slides to the venue, and run the slides using the venue’s laptop (usually a PC). My question is, will Slido work for me, using the integration on a new device, having prepared slides as above. Do I need to download the integration tool on the venue’s Powerpoint app for it to work {which I often cannot do, as there’s IT admins involved in downloading new things to a laptop and the laptop will not belong to me)?Thanks,

In a quiz (not poll) I have some questions that I need to hide the answer from participants. How is this done please?

Hi!I am an Instructional Designer, so I make presentations others will use. When I share the presentation, the Slido slides are not interactive. How do I make it so any facilitator in my company can present the content? Thank you!

I have a list of 25 questions in a poll and somehow the position of the first two questions has changed.  I have tried to click and slide the question, with no success.  Is this option not available on the Basic plan.  I suspect it is, since the first two questions have swapped positions, but I don’t know how to fix it

Is there a way to upvote/like responses to an open poll? It sounded like they were working on adding this feature as of a few months ago, but I still don’t see it. I was hoping there was a workaround using the Q&A function, which has the upvote option. But there seems no way to edit the prompt to say something different than “type your question.”

How can I sign up right away to start using 

how do I increase the time allowed to answer multiple choice questions 

I’m wondering if there is a way to integrate Slido into Keynote?

We are running a contest where participants will judge 10 entries based on 4 consistent criteria.  I’ve set this up as 10 x survey polls each with 4 questions that ask for a 0-5 ranking.  At the end of the process I would like to add up the scores for each team (survey) and display on a single results screen bar chart or similar with a bar representing each teams score out of 20.  Unfortunately I haven’t managed to find how to do this through the help guides etc so am hoping someone might be able to help please.  Thank you. 

I am trying to run a quiz over several days at a conference and would like to have participants go through it at their own pace. There’s a post from three years ago asking for the same thing - I assume by now this exists but I don’t see any instructions. How can I do this?
