Keeping poll order when switching to new interface ?

I wrote 1 slido for a course made of several lectures. Up to 14 polls per lecture are set in a specific order in the old slido and assigned to different sessions. When switching to the new slido I lose the break up into different sessions and the order of the polls. It is hell ! How can in keep the order and the break up into sessions of the old Slido. I do not find it easier to navigate. It will increase my workload terribly.

Slido for powerpoint doesnt work after upgrade

Hi, I’m using Slido during teaching on a tropical medicine course, primarily for multiple choice. It worked great last year, so i just upgraded to Engage. Suddenly I’m having problems, my computer says my power points are “corrupted”, I cant save my presentations anymore and have had to remove all Slidos from my presentations to be able to save them. They also look like in this picture; stating how the app must be installed, but it already is. I have tried to delete and install the “Slidos for powerpoint” again, but the same thing is happening. Has anyone got any experience with this? I have a presentation Thursday (in 2 days) and would love to use Slido for it!

Is it possible to get notified when the new question is posted?

Is there a way to get notifications whenever a new question is posted? Use case is when Q&A is being used to collect questions over an extended period of time; not just during a short, one-time event. Thanks!

Rename Audience Q&A

Hi there,Is it be possible to rename the Audience Q&A Panel? Instead of a running list of audience questions, I would like it to be a running list of recognition items. Is this possible, and if so, how?

Can participants vote more than once?

We are doing an intergenerational event and most children will not have phones. Is there a way to allow participants to vote more than once, so that children may vote on their parent’s phone?

Has Slido Become a Barrier to Real Dialogue?

Slido presents itself as a platform for safe, inclusive audience engagement — a place where anyone can ask questions without fear or interruption. In theory, this is commendable. In practice, however, I’ve found this promise to be an illusion.At a recent New Scientist event, more than 200 questions were submitted through Slido. Yet during the Q&A, only a handful were selected — and not by the speakers or audience, but by a moderator who filtered them through their own lens. This introduces a disturbing form of gatekeeping: valid questions may be dismissed for being too challenging, off-narrative, or simply misunderstood by the moderator.This raises troubling questions: Who decides what gets asked? On what criteria? What are we losing when questions are pre-screened rather than asked live? This isn’t just about a single event — it's about a cultural shift. What happened to courage, audience participation, and good old-fashioned debate? When tech intermediates dialogue, do we ris

Thinking of running a slido poll in Australia with delegates from multiple countries but also with Chinese delegates - will this work for them?

Concerned as to whether our Chinese delegates will be able to access. They will be in Australia at the time of the event

I bought a one-time plan but it doesn't reflect in my account

The company bought an engage plan for me to use at the event, the invoice is available and appears as paid in my account, however, when I access my account it still shows the basic level. How do I upgrade to the engaged level after payment? It should have been automatic but it wasn't. Thanks

Disable Poll feature

Just activated the new Slido layout and I can no longer disable polls. How do I turn off polls completely? I only want Q&A to be displayed for my audience. I do not want to see the Polls tab at all. Right now under the Polls tab it says “There are no active polls at the moment” then there’s a button that takes you back to Q&A.

Troubleshooting : automatic log out without saving

This morning I have been using Slido to create a new survey and 3 times now it has automatically come up that I have to leave the site (shuts me out) and when I log back in it hasn’t saved some of my work. This is extremely frustrating and is wasting a lot of time. Please help, what is going on.

Pre Event Slido Testing

I like to conduct tests before the presentation/event/session to make sure everything including Slido is working correctly. So I will have staff use QR and respond to my Slido poll Qs. Does this have any impact on the (3) total polls that can be used per presentation/event/session for the Basic plan? I really can’t have Slido discontinue working in the middle of my presentation if I hit some threshold. Thanks!
