Feature Request: Additional functionality in Ranking Polls

It would be great to be able to add more functionality into the ranking poll.A few examples:Being able to add weights to the ranking to show there is a lesser or greater distance between item a and item b vs item b and item c. Being able to rank two criteria at once. Would display an x/y scatter plot to show where each item ranks for each criteria. Percentage ranking. Users get n points/percentage to divide across each item until all are used. Another way to easily present importance.Looking into how ranking is calculated (1st = n points, 2nd = n-1 points, … nth = 1 point), it doesn’t seem like it would be terribly difficult implement where these options could be toggled on and users can control the weights of each.

Spam in Q&A

Hello there, Is it technically possible that someone external or a ‘bot’ could get into a Slido Link and then post Spam-Questions in a Q&A that was anonymous and only for a unique audience where the link was shared? Has anyone experience with that?  Many thanks,  Lu

I have three slido QR Codes in a powerpoint pitch. The first one works well. The next two, say that there are no active posts.

I have three slido QR Codes in a powerpoint pitch. The first one works well. The next two, say that there are no active posts but all three are listed as active on Slido. Why are the other two not showing as active ?

Unable to select show results immediately

Hi,When I set up a multiple choice question, and put in answer choices and select the correct answer, I am unable to choose show results immediately. It automatically reverts to show results on click but I don’t want that. I want people to see where people are voting while casting their own vote.

Option to create own poll similar to Q&A with toping

Is there an option to create a poll similar to Q&A in order to like e.g. ideas generated by the poll to get the most popular ones?

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
