Slido is gradually rolling out a new user interface. If the below steps and visuals match what you are seeing, then you are using the new interface and this article is for you. If not, please see this version
If you don't want to receive any new questions, you can close your Q&A. While your participants won't be able to submit any new questions, you can still display and discuss the ones which have already been asked.
Close Q&A
- Hover over Q&A under My interactions
- Click the red lock icon
- Select Close Q&A to confirm
You can also close the voting by selecting Close Q&A from the control bar at the bottom of your Host mode.
When Q&A is closed, participants can view and upvote questions, but cannot ask more.
To reopen your Q&A, simply click the lock icon again or the Open Q&A option in the control bar.
Close voting
Available in Professional and Higher plans
When closing your Q&A, you can also choose to close the voting. This makes it so no one can upvote or downvote any of the questions. Participants will still see the Q&A, but with a disclaimer reading, “Questions and voting closed.”
If your Q&A is closed, you can always close or open the voting using its three dot menu under My interactions.
