How long can you keep Q&A active?

Dear Slido community, I would like to know how long can you keep a Q&A and poll active with a free account. I would like to reuse the same link/event for some time (maybe some months). Is that possible with a free account? I read about the permanent link but not sure if I understood. Also, when I try to change the end date of the event, it’s not possible to be longer than one week. Thank you in advance! Best, Jacinto

How do I create a ranking poll which allows participants to ALSO add entries like in an open text poll?

How do I create a ranking poll which allows participants to ALSO add entries like in an "open text” poll?The problem with the vote-based ranking in the “open text” polls is that people can only vote (thumb up) an item once, and so their actual ranking will be obscured by a bunch of single votes for many options. And yet, the ability for audience to add items in the “open text” format is really lovely (a feature that’s absent in the ranking polls). Let me know how this can be achieved, and if it’s not a feature, it’d be great if it could be created!

Maybe you could help me understand how is this possible.Thanks in advance

Is it possible to moderate a word cloud?

Hey Slido Community,I am putting together a training presentation and was hoping to include the word cloud question.I love that they display the answers and as the more popular repeated answers/key words get mentioned they grow in size. However, is there a function that allows us to approve/vet the answers before they appear on the word cloud? Our higher ups voiced concerns about the possibility of people entering whatever they want (disparaging, abusive and or harassing comments)  Thank you.A

Understanding ranking poll metrics

I would like to understand what the numbers on the side of these results (circled in red) mean from our latest polls. Here is the view of what is showing on our dashboard. Our previous session results were shown in percentages. The settings for this one is in percentage. These don’t seem to make sense percentage wise...

HelloIs it or will it be possible to extract an RSS feed of the questionsor chat ?If we want to import data “live” now we have to export it every timewe want our Google Spreadsheet to update. It would be nice if new datais automatically published in a file.This way we can refer to that file in our live broadcast and put thequestions in the show. Thank you.

My survey templates vs Slido templates

Hi all. I just started using the survey and sessions feautre, but when doing so, that seem to totally screw the order questions appear in the present mode navigation. Also the template part is no longer working as nice as before. I want my templates to have priorities over yours and to be able to search for event, sessions and survey, adding then an entire block and not individual questions. Anyone having better solutions to this? Thanks

Move to different slide depending on poll answer

Hi there!! Was wondering here if there's any possibility to move to a different slide depending on the replies received in a pool. For instance, if I throw a pool with option A or Option B, and more people option A, then I can go to the next slide, but if more people are to chose option B, then I can jump to a further slide.

Can I show survey results all on one screen?

A community member ask about this a while back (see below).  I’m wondering if this feature has been added?  I upgraded to the paid version because it looked like that was possible in surveys.  I’m disappointed that  I can’t figure out how to do this. Fingers crossed! Thank you! Is there a way to have multiple ratings under one question? For example, the question could be “What rating do you give team 1?” and there would be 3 ratings of “relevance to brief”, “presentation” and “wow factor”. Is there a way to have these all show on one page instead of creating a survey where each rating is on a new page?

How to use the same slido multiple times

Hi there, I’m looking for some clarification around reusing the same event multiple times. I’ve read the articles about reusing codes within powerpoint but am still a bit confused. In my case, I am looking to re-use the same Slido event for a workshop that will be run multiple times on different dates. Currently, when I reuse the same event / event code the audience sees responses from the previous session. Is my only option to clear the results or duplicate the event?My team likes to save the results so we can analyze the data, but we are also trying to avoid constantly duplicating events as it can get confusing for our facilitation team when they log into Slido to find & activate the event. I would love to be able to export analytics from one single event code and see the answers/ results from various sessions in one place.  Any guidance/ best practices around doing this would be super helpful.  Thank you!
