We made a few changes to Slido admin sidebar in Webex to improve your experience during meetings and webinars.
Introducing new look of Slido sidebar in Webex
Updated 4 November: You can select from multiple rooms you created in advance in Slido directly in Webex sidebar
Updated 2 November: We’re turning on the new sidebar for everyone and multiple rooms are coming in mid November!
Updated 26 May: The new sidebar in Webex is now live for everyone by default!
Updated 20 July: New settings were added to the Slido sidebar in Webex
On December 1, 2022 we turned on the new look for everyone and removed the option to switch between the two versions.
What’s new:
Intuitive user experience and modern look
The new interface is designed specifically for use in Webex. It’s simplified and easy to navigate. If you’re yet to get to know Slido, tooltips and system messages will help you get the most out of it.
For dark mode lovers, we now have dark mode support. Accessibility requirements are also fully supported.
New polls design, support for quiz and results download
With redesigned polls, you can now see the word cloud the same way as your participants. Simplified flow lets you easily create and run a quiz. Downloading poll results and Q&A directly from the sidebar is also possible.
Localization support
The default language is now set automatically based on the Webex setting.
You can switch back to the old view until 30 November. You can find the option at the bottom of the menu.

Step-by-step guides for setting up Slido in Webex:
I noticed its still possible to show the correct answer when I run it trough Slido admin, but that is quite time consuming and irritating for some of my colleague to have an extra app just be able to use Slido in Webex, when Webex already had this Slido. Did these features get removed or is it just not created for the new look yet?
so everything works fine there, but I would love to know if the “switch back” option is going to stay till the new look gets finalized
