Toggling Polls and Q&A

Hosts can activate or deactivate Polls and Q&A via the settings in the Event Room. Click the “Settings” option, and then the “Filter” icon to turn these features on or off.

Moderated Q&A

Audience members can type their questions in the Q&A tab during a Live event.

However, these questions won’t be visible to the entire audience until the Host approves them. Or, if they are deleted, will not be viewable by the audience at all.

Questions that have not yet been approved will be in the “Submitted” tab.

Click "Make public" to approve the question. It will then appear in the "Public" tab. Click the Trash icon to delete it.

The host and/or panelists can then create a thread to answer the question. To create a thread, click "Reply."

Any dismissed questions will appear in the “Deleted” tab, and are not visible to the audience.

To delete a question, click the trash bin icon. Deleted questions can also be moved back over to the "Public" tab by clicking "Make public."

Questions that have already been answered can also be moved over to the “Deleted” section at any time.

Polls

Hosts can create and edit Polls from the Event Room any time before or during the event.

Note

Panelists are not able to create, edit, launch, or delete polls. However, they can see the polls and poll results.

While in the Event Room, navigate to the "Polls" tab. Clicking “Create a poll” will allow you to start drafting your question and answers. Once saved, the draft can then be edited, deleted, or launched.

Note

There is no limit to the number of polls you can create, however, each poll has a limit of up to 10 answer options.

Once launched, polls will appear to the audience after 10 seconds. As the audience votes, the host and panelists will see the percentage of votes for each response.

Once closed, polls will take 30 seconds to disappear from audience view.
