Slido is gradually rolling out a new user interface. If the below steps and visuals match what you are seeing within your account, then you are using the new interface and this article is for you. If not, please see this version.

 

It’s always smart to test your Slido polls and Q&A before your event or meeting. And whenever you’re ready, you can reset your poll results and delete your testing questions to start fresh.

 

In case you want to activate the same poll or quiz twice, there's no need to create a new one from scratch. Simply reset the results and have your participants cast their votes again.

How to select all interactions

 

 

Delete testing Q&A

 

Any Q&A question you delete will be gone forever and will no longer appear in your Analytics. 

 

Delete or archive a single Q&A question

  1. Hover over the question you want to delete and click the three-dot menu
  2. Select Delete or Archive
  3. If choosing to Delete, you’ll need to confirm the action

 

Deleting single questions

 

 

Archive multiple Q&A questions at once

  1. Hover over the question you want to archive and click the three-dot menu
  2. Click Select
  3. Tick the boxes next to any other question you’d like to archive
  4. Click the Archive icon
Archive Q&A questions in bulk

 

To delete questions in bulk, they must first be archived. Then follow the same steps above and select the Delete option.

 

 

Pro tip: If you wish to archive all Q&A questions, click the Select all option.

 

Select all questions to be archived

 

 

 

Reset all interactions (polls and Q&A questions)

 

You can also reset all of your poll results and delete all Q&A questions at the same time. This is especially helpful after testing your slido – or if you’d like to use the same slido with a different audience. 

  1. Select View as participant in the bottom right
  2. Click Reset all interactions near the top right corner
  3. Select Reset all interactions once more to confirm
     
Reset all interactions

 

 

When testing your slido, the joined and engaged participant numbers found in your Analytics cannot be reset. If you’d prefer to start with a zero participant count for your live event or meeting, you can always duplicate the slido. Duplicating creates a new slido with the same poll questions and settings, but uses a different slido code.

I no longer see the tick boxes shown in your “Resetting polls in bulk” video and explanation. I’m using Edge browser. Where did they go?!


Hello @allisterf 

once you select one of the polls to be deleted then you can click on a little arrow above this poll and it would allow you to select all of your polls. Here is a screenshot from my admin:
