Several Q&A in one event

Hi,participants will have the option to drop their questions during the present event via Q&A. There will be different time slots to do so related to different points in the agenda. To keep that organized I was wondering if it is possible to have several (up to 4 or 5) Q&A. Once the first is over I would close it and open the next one.I hope you can help me.Thank you very much.Sofia

How to change participants' answers into voting

Hi All!I have a little pickle. I once participated in a slido open text poll, where people could submit questions, and after the poll ended, organizers turned on voting - people could vote on the questions they want answered by the organizers. How can I do that?

Who can launch polls within WebEx?

Can anyone offer clarification here in terms of who (host, co-host, presenter) can launch polls within a WebEx? I remember reading at some point that only certain roles can launch polls or that co-hosts must request permission, but I cannot find that article anymore and I am trying to train some new facilitators. Let me give an example: We had a host start our WebEx and launch our first poll (which is a poll for which I shared access with her). Later in the morning, I wanted to share a poll (I was a co-host at that point) but could not access my list of polls from my account - my assumption is that Slido was still running under HER account. If so, can she “logout” of Slido while remaining host of the WebEx meeting and, if so, will I then be able to pull up Slido as the co-host? Don’t know if this question makes sense, but I’ll see if anyone has any thoughts. Thanks,Eric

Single event

How do you use the SLIDO option for a single event? When does the event start? My event is going to last three days, is this option valid for a single event? Is the single event counted by the event registration number?

Quiz Results Absolute values vs percentages

Dear Slidos, Is there a possibility to visualise quiz results as absolute value instead of percentages. Is it possible to obtain an average automatically calculated? In the example below the total is 2+3+4 = 9 Average is 3 (3 votes so 9/3 = 3)

Users

Can anyone confirm how many users can use Slido Live at the same time?  i.e. if you have 2 different events on and both parties want to use it either at the same time of over the course of the same day?  I know the polls etc can be kept live for however long is necessary without any interference from other polls live for other events. But I’m unsure about Live Events.

Separating poll results

Is there a way to separate poll results by a previous question? For example, can we ask for participants to select their gender in the first question and then sort the remaining answers by gender?Thanks

Removing the Option of Anonymity

Hi everyone, I want to remove the option for participants to answer anonymously for a certain Slido event. I understand that I will need to opt for the Professional or Enterprise accounts. Can someone please confirm whether the Professional account ensures the default setting of participants to “Always Require Name” thus only being able to answer by name/identity or does it still provide participants the option to be anonymous?

Is there a chat functionality in Slido?

Hi there, Slido is great but we’re missing one feature - live chat. We would like to use it alongside polling and Q&A.

Question about User Licenses

I am currently on a free trial and are considering the Professional monthly package for 3 users. Does this mean that I get an “Owner” and 2 “Admins”?

Place incoming questions into pre defined subject areas! Possible or not?

Hi all! I would like to know what slido capabilities will allow me to place in-coming questions into pre-defined (or not) subject areas, so that they are easier to group / read and respond to logically. not sure if subject areas have to be pre-defined or not. Tank You! We have a call next week.

Configure for Different Settings in Different Rooms within the Same Event

Dear Slido Community,As there will be many different segments within an event that I’d be using Slido for, I have elected to have 1 Slido event with multiple rooms to save my participants from having to scan too many QR Codes. For some of the segments, I’ll only be using the Q&A Function. For other segments, I’ll only be using the poll functions.Is there a way to turn off Q&A or Poll tab as needed for specific rooms rather than having it apply to all rooms within the same event?I do not wish for my participants to be able to see tabs that are not required for that particular segment to minimise confusion as they are largely first time users of Slido.

Merging multiple choice question/answers for a quiz?

I have already created various multiple choice questions. Can I merge them to form a quiz? Or will I have to start all over and type in the multiple choice questions into the “quiz” format? Thanks a lot for any advice!

Default writing direction when creating Polls/ Surveys

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

Can we track anonymous respondent's answers?

Is it possible we track the same person’s answers without having to know his name?For example I’m going to ask the same question before and after the class. How can I know if the individual has changed the answer after the class?I don’t want to know who the people are. I just want to make sure the pre-test and post-test are the same person.Thanks!

What counts as an event?

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 event? 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!
