I bought a one-time license, good for “one event”. I will want to test my presentation at a dry-run event one day prior. Is this possible or will it try to charge me when I get to the event day?

I have my one time event set for 1 week in September. It is the Q&A event.It looks like I can start my one time event early and test it. I can also send out the QR code early.What happens if the attendees log in and ask questions prior to the week the event goes active?Does my event go for one week from the time the attendees start asking questions and then end?I see that I can test my event - can I test it multiple times with an attendee or 2 asking questions?Is there a limit on how many attendees can be a part of the test?

Hi all,How can I set/activate a quiz timer within Slido?Thanks for your support.Simone

Hi everyone,Is there an easy way to reset my poll responses or results? I’d like to test my slido out to make sure I understand what I’m doing, but I want to know that I can start fresh again. I’m worried that I’ll have my testing responses there and won’t be able to remove them.  Is this possible?

Hi,I am looking to create a quiz with a similar concept to The 1% Club, where if attendees answer a question wrong they will be knocked out and won’t continue to the next question.Is this possible on Slido? If so, any advice on how to set this up?Many thanks,Louise

Hi there! Just wondering if it’s possible to create a Survey on Slido where there’s a set of 20 or so Polls, but that participants can advance themselves through and answer at their own pace? My hope was that we open the Slido as the session begins, people can complete the questions as we do other things, and then we walk through the RESULTS one at a time (not walk through TAKING them - which would take forever). Thanks!

I’ve looked and haven’t been able to find any information about this in the forums. I’m using Slido as an instructor at the university level for comprehension questions during lectures and to encourage interaction and participation with a large group of students (70 students). I would like to be able to track students’ participation, and see whether they are getting questions right or not over the course of the weeks and the semester. In other words, I would like to track their participation and question responses during lectures and use that as part of their grade. Ideally, this could be integrated into a online “classroom” so they don’t have to scan QR codes each class. I haven’t seen that this is possible in Slido (though it is for some other interactive classroom apps). Does Slido allow for anything like profile, group, or classroom creation? It would be great if students could create profiles so that they can track their progress, and look back at old questions. It would be gre

Hi, I’m using a one-time Engage plan. Is it possible to prepare and test my slido outside of the 7 day limit? Or does the 7 day limit start when I purchase?  Many thanks. Cheers,Marco 

Hi, I want to ask multiple polls (with multi-choice) on one slide and not multiple slides. How can I do that?

Hi,To provide overview in a list of polls within one Slido, I'm considering to work with Assign session. The Session name is usefull, but i'm not sure what the implications are by using Session date and time and Duration time. For example, if it is set on 21-08 for 30 minutes starting on 11.00 h., can the poll still be presented on 21-08 11.45 h?  What do Session date and time, and Duration time do? And are there maybe more suitable ways to provide overview in a list of polls within one Slido? Thanks in advance! 

Dear Community,I am trying to create a poll in a Powerpoint presentation for work, but there is an exclamation mark by the Slido logo and it says that the presentation is linked to another account. This seems to be a Microsoft ac.uk account I have with a university (where I sit on a committee), but that is not my primary place of work. I am trying to log into Slido with my .ac.uk account so I can log out of it, but it won’t accept my password. I click on ‘forgot password’ but no reset link arrives ( I am checking my spam folder in my Microsoft email account). The Powerpoint is provided for me by my employer on a work laptop, and I can log in and out of Slido at slido.com no problem with my work email (Google), but I cannot shift this association with the Microsoft account or log out of it. Any ideas, please?Thanks,Penny.

hi,I have an event taking place next September, it will take place for 2 days with the same content, I wonder if I can buy the engage package once and use it for 2 days?thanks

We are running a two day event for 60 delegates.  We will have 6 workshops across the two days.  What does 3 per slido mean?  Can I ask three questions per workshop?  Or can I only use it 3 times a day? 

I am the cohost of multiple events. I want to consolidate all the slidos into one event. Is there a way to do this other than manually recreating each slide into one event?

When I try to use ranking as an interaction in my slido I am unable to use it, the slide icon is greyed out and has a ‘crown’ symbol at the top right, see below I haven’t seen this previously, is this option no longer available?

Hi Community,could it be that the Teams integration is broken? When selecting "sharing" (freigeben in German), it opens a separate window, not integrated into the Teams meeting. What's more concerning is that the content displayed is my admin view, not the presentation view, which is quite frustrating during a live meeting. Just last week, it functioned perfectly.I already contacted Slido via contact form.Maybe someone else is facing this problem.It looks like this.Slido Teams App Version: 3.4.0 

I want to have a simple poll in a Mailchimp like below.  A simple one-click from the newsletter email they get.  Can slido do this into a Mailchimp, and also display some super simple results also like below?Grateful for any guru assistance from your experience.  TIA  

I'm trying to set up a public screen at our event to show live results from multiple quizzes. Since I won't be manually advancing the slides, I need to find a way to make the presentation auto-advance.For example, I want to display live results and leaderboards for Quizzes A, B, and C. They are under the same session. Each quiz has three questions. I'd like to show the live results and leaderboard after each quiz. I want the slides to auto-play and loop until the event ends.I've tried using Slido's Google Slides integration, but it's not working as expected. It keeps going back and forth between the 'Join the quiz' screen and the first question of Quiz A. The Slido player doesn't seem to have an autoplay or loop feature. I have to manually start the presentation over each time. Is there a way to fix this?

I am in the Slido part of my PowerPoint presentation and its asking me to sign in or switch accounts. Im already signed in.  Either choice is not working.  I want to sign into my own account but it keeps rejecting me and its not going anywhere.

With basic - it says only 3 polls per event.  So does that mean after 3 Slido slides I can’t use it anymore unless I upgrade to the next level?  Silly question, but I’ll ask anyway - each presentation you run you can have up to 100 participants (if you’re on basic)?  So if I have two presentations in a day - each could have up to 100 participants is that true?  

I am using Slido and the organization does not allow computers on their system. Can Slido work from a USB?

Hello .We are considering the Professional plan for a one-time event, utilizing the multiple-room slido feature embedded into PowerPoint.We have 10 physical rooms with 10 laptops.   We have 100 PowerPoint Presentations (sessions) over the course of the event.Questions:How many "slido rooms" do we need to create? (100?  1 for each session?)Can the 10 laptops use the same slido logon information to activate slido? (single account holder) I was just on working an event with 6 separate rooms using slido embedded into PowerPoint, and they had to have 6 individual Slido account holders to login on those separate laptops in order to make it work. Maybe it was setup incorrectly. Thank you for the help. Art 

I’m using Chrome on a Mac. Every time I try logging into Slido, it forces me to reset my password. I have cleared cache (for all time) and it still makes me reset. I can log in using Incognito in Chrome, and I can log in on Safari. Still, Chrome is my default browser and I cannot use this integration properly unless I change my default browser permanently.
