Reconnecting users during live quiz

Hi there, does anybody know how to reconnect users during a live quiz, so that they keep their score? I am experiencing problems hosting quizzes where users are dropped out of the quiz, and can only re enter as a new user. Thank you

Reset Slido Participant count

I’ve done testing for my event, and reset all interactions.  The only thing that seems to not reset is in the analytics dashboard, the number of slido participants.  It still says the following, all other stats are at 0:Engaged participants0 out of 7 Slido participants engaged with polls or Q&A. How to reset the number of participants?

Using Slido for PowerPoint on different computer

Hi there, I noticed you are scrapping Slido Switcher, so I have a question regarding the integrated Powerpoint for Slido, which I’ve not really used.I have a Mac and prepare all slides using the Powerpoint app. I have the Slido integration for that, so I’m happy to prepare slides that way.However, before our events, we are often advised to send the slides to the venue, and run the slides using the venue’s laptop (usually a PC). My question is, will Slido work for me, using the integration on a new device, having prepared slides as above. Do I need to download the integration tool on the venue’s Powerpoint app for it to work {which I often cannot do, as there’s IT admins involved in downloading new things to a laptop and the laptop will not belong to me)?Thanks,

Presenting ppt in a teams meeting

When I have a slido in my PPT and then present my PPT in a teams meeting, I cannot see the slido QR code or the code to log in. I can only see it if I run the presentation and share my screen. But that means, with presentation notes my 2nd screen is blocked and I can’t see my audience.

Add numerical responses to show a total

I would like to take pledges (promises to donate in future) during a live event. Is there a Slido question that could take numerical answers and display the growing total during the event? I would also need access to the names of people making each pledge to be able to contact them later.

Can the quiz be played at different times

HiI want to put a quiz into the slideshow in our global town hall presentation - it will be presented live but recorded so that people in different timezones can watch at different times. Will the slido stay active so that 1) People can join at different times and still participate?2) The quiz will still collate responses so we can see an overall winner?

Feature request: Auto-reset Slido session or Prompt to reset Slido session

Hi Slido community! We are a training team that loves Slido. As an instructional designer, I make the Slidos, and our team of facilitators use them in Webex during live online trainings. They deliver the same classes over and over, and they’ve told me they often forget to reset the Slido session prior to a class, so then they are fumbling to reset at the start of class after they’ve launched the first Slido poll and the current class saw the responses from the previous class. Could there be a setting within Slido to auto-reset every so often, or even a dialog box that asks the first time you launch a used Slido whether you want to reset or not? Would love it if anyone else has found a good solution for this.  Thanks,Susie

Initial settings SLIDO

Hi all, I’m having some problems with the initial setting of SLIDO. Meetings on which i would like to apply SLIDO are all set from a general account in outlook (Teams group). It looks like that when me or my colleague is adding SLIDO we cannot log into SLIDO during the meeting, instead the guests for the session access SLIDO and use the Q&A. Has anyone experienced something similar?Thanks in advance for the support Egidio

Setting up Participant login via Okta SSO

I am attempting to configure participant SSO via Okta. I already have Member SSO in place however, the documentation is suggesting that in order for participants to log in and ask questions they must use the separate integration.  There is no pre-built Okta integration for Participants so I’d like to know what I need to enter for the following:  Single sign-on URL  Audience URI (SP Entity ID) Secondary to the above question, is there an option to leverage the existing IDP connection used for Members to allow participant login?

Can I run a quiz that people can take at their own pace?

I am trying to run a quiz over several days at a conference and would like to have participants go through it at their own pace. There’s a post from three years ago asking for the same thing - I assume by now this exists but I don’t see any instructions. How can I do this?

Who counts as a participant?

Hi all, I’m organizing an event of 2 days with 80 participants each and multiple sessions. Hence, the intention is to buy either the engage or the professional account. However, I am worried about the limitation of participants: what do you mean with it? Given the several sessions we’ll host, these 80+80 participants would access to the Sli.do event multiple times (probably with same device). Log in is not required for accessing to sli.do event’s, so I’m wondering how you count participants.  Thanks for understanding, Best.

How do you run a quiz so that people can go through questions at their own pace?

Dear Slido Developers,I have created some quizzes with Slido and would like to share them via a link. However, I do not have this possibility, when I click on the three dots for the settings. How can I share my quiz with the students? If I am not mistaken, last week I was able to do so, when I was playing with my first quiz.Many thanks in advance!

Set up Multiple Rooms in your slido

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. The Multiple rooms feature allows you to create different ‘rooms’ within your slido – each having their own separate polling and Q&A. When organizing an event with parallel tracks or multiple training sessions throughout the day, setting up multiple rooms will help divide your content.  Participants can even switch between different rooms depending on which session or meeting they’re attending. Available in Professional and higher plans In this article:Create rooms Activate and deactivate rooms Manage rooms Get the permanent link for a specific room Tips and reminders  Create rooms To create multiple rooms in a slido:Open up your Settings Select Multiple rooms Add and rename as many rooms as you need – then hit SaveThere is a limit of 200 rooms per slido,

Quiz - Can you add and remove points from participants DURING quiz?

Is it possible to add and remove points from participants DURING the quiz? For more info, we’re looking to have a session where in addition to the quiz participants can gain or lose points through various other activities happening in the room. We’d like to keep score on just the one scoreboard/leaderboard though in slido and just integrate their points earning/losing in slido.

Reg. Slido Quiz answers

We had a conference in which the final quiz competition was conducted using Slido Quiz. During the quiz, we did not allow the participants to know if their answers were correct/ incorrect by double clicking and moving on to the next question in each round.After the quiz, we got the leaderboard too and announced the top 5 winners. Then, the faculty began to discuss answers to the questions with the participants. Mid-way in between, one of the staff, closed the presentation from the presenter’s laptop but then as the participants wanted to be able to see their questions and answers on Slido, the quiz was left active again by pressing ‘yes’ in the pop-up box that asked whether we wanted to leave the quiz open (active) or not. After this reactivation and completion of the answer discussion, one of the participants came and showed that 2 questions in which she had marked the correct answers were marked as wrong by Slido in her ‘View my answers’ section. We checked the presenter’s Slido vers

Is there an easier way to let pools work without the need to enter on slido webpage and initiate each pool every time?

I have set up different pools to obtain the perception from the public on each module of the training. These pools are part of one set and other trainers put together other sets of pools for their public too. The problem I see is that to make the related QR code work and direct the public attention to the right pool, I have to enter on slido and stop the previous pool and open the next one, every time. No one else can do it, but me. It is not worth it to have this inconvenience all the time. I would like to minister the same training to different groups of people, having the same training modules being presented on every training day and I would like to know their opinion on how the training was, without the need to go there every time and keep closing, opening, closing, opening… I would like them to be permanently opened to the internal public of my company during a long time, like a year. Is it possible to set up the pools on that way?
