Can I use Slido in PowerPoint of parallels in Mac ? 

Hi,I’m creating polls in Arabic. When doing so I can right click on the text field, select writing direction and change it to ‘right to left’ as this is what I require. There is a ‘default option’ but it is blanked out. I have ‘Arabic’ selected in the Poll/ Survey language settings. My issue is that for each text entry I have to right click and do as I have described above. This is very slow and cumbersome. Is there a way to select the writing direction default for all text fields in a survey where Arabic is the language or is there another workaround? Thanks,Daithi

Hi - I am trying out the free version in my college class, and after 1 day it went great! However, I am now creating a new slide deck for day 2, and cannot make anymore interactions because I have already used 3. Is there a way to do this as a new slido? This is an amazing educational tool but I am now worried I won’t be able to use it for free, and can’t pay for it on my own. Note I have 76 students. Thank you!

Hi everyone, we’ve just started using slido and I’m struggling to make it work the way our previous poll tool did.We use polls to track our chared computer systems, each person votes on a IP and others can see which user is also using that system and can contact them to prevent data destruction or interference.I’ve gotten slido to display the poll but users cannot see who has voted on which IP.  They just see a number.  I think this works in reports but I can’t generate 50 reports every day for everyone.Is there a way to guarantee users can see other user names and what they voted on?

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!

Hi everyone!Is it possible to perform any customizations to the content displayed on the presentation slide used in Slido? For example, we’d like to use a passcode to restrict access during our meeting from non-voting members, but when we enable passcode as a security feature, it’s also displayed on the presentation slide. Thanks! Chris

We’ll be hosting several “AMA” drop-in sessions for a large number of attendees to ask questions relating to a large change initiative.  The attendees at each of the 4 sessions may or may not be the same. We’d like to only have one unique slido Q&A and passcode to be used for all 4 sessions with the ability to easily mark a question as answered during session 1, then reopen it to be available for upvoting / recall at the next session.  It would also be beneficial to identify the questions that were asked during each session.  Is this possible? 

Can you point me to details regarding Slido App Icon Badges and what triggers each so we use the knowledge to better support our users at the State of Illinois? See example of a RED app icon badge with (!) in the screen shot enclosed. thx! 

I’m new to Slido and trying to test it out to see if it will work for my classroom. Are polls the same as questions? Is there a way to put many questions in one poll? Or do I need to be an upgraded customer to put more than three polls? 

I am wondering if I can collect post-meeting survey results in a slido poll tool? I am using Polls and Word Clouds during an upcoming power point presentation and thought it would be nice to offer, rather than sending everyone to an online survey tool (like in constant contact.) Is there a way to ask people to reply to survey questions using Slido again? 

Is there any way to add questions as bulk rather than adding them manually one by one?Thanks

Hi all, first time user and planning to use Slido at a conference in September.I don’t want to use the Slido powerpoint download as it will not be my presenting laptop on the day, and asking uncertain presenters to configure their own presentations would be difficult anyway.So, what is the best way for the presenter to ask a question/poll of the audience? Assume I have pre notification of the question / poll and have entered it in the event list already. Should I just ask the presenter to include the slido url on their slide that takes them to the slido poll?Thanks

Hi, We use Slido in every company meeting and allow all the employees to ask questions anonymously if they like.We noticed that the reply is also anonymous when replying to an anonymous question. How can we keep the questions anonymous but make all replies display the replier name?

Since slido has the option to embed your videostream into the platform it is obvious to use slido as your main stand-alone platform. in that case creating a registration form would be useful. is this something that already exists or is it on the roadmap?I've been out for a while so I don't know if my question is current.Thanks in advance for your time! Frank

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, I have 5 questions in a quiz and I would like the leaderboard to be reset after every question. Reason being, I would like to have 2 winners for every question asked.Is there a solution for the above? Thank you. 

Is it possible to only show the single top responses live on a poll? We plan to use the poll for audience members to vote for their favourite presentation.  There will be 10 presenters so we only want to show the most popular so as not to embarrass any of the other presenters.

Would like to know, if it is possible to go from one slido to another slido without having to disconnect from my meeting? Last time I tried to change my slido within my meeting room, it seems that everyone including me, had to disconnect from my meeting to access a different one. Thanks for your answer.  

Hello, I'm going to use slido for a sales meeting. There will be 160 people voting for several categories.I would like to know if it is possible to display only the winning category when the results are presented? If so, how do I do this?  Thank you very much :)

I would like to create multiple-choice grid e.g. list 5 categories on the left, with all 5 having the same options to choose from to score e.g. very unlikely to very likely. Is this possible? Currently seem only be able to do one at a time!

HelloOur voters have different numbers of votes depending on the size of the company. Can I take this into account in SLIDO?e.g. Company X = 20 votesCompany Y = 8 votesCompany Z = 1 vote

I use the poll for each monthly Ask Us Anything Meeting, but need to find a way to move the unanswered questions to the next month. Is there a way to do this?

I wondered if you could help please? I just want a fairly simple slido plan that we have one question which operates for a 6 week period. People can post their questions anonymously via a link (the same link over the whole period) and everyone be able to see all the questions and like them if they want to. Which plan do I need for this? 

I am looking to create poll where the respondents are of 3 different groups.  Is there a way to have respondents first identify which group they belong to and then answer subsequent questions?  Eg:  let’s say I am polling 20 Kings, Queens and Jesters.  My polling question is:  “Do you think that the country will be fall to the rebels?  Yes/No”   I want to know how many yes/no’s across the 3 groups.  Is there a way to do this?

I created an event earlier this week and went to test it out today with some participants but I cannot see any tab except “analytics” when I open my event.  Even when I duplicate the event it does not show me my quiz questions or let me start the quiz.   What am I doing wrong?
