There are several ways you can manage your Polls throughout an event. This article will show you how you can unpublish, delete, and even edit your Polls.

Note: Event Organizers can create and manage Polls event-wide. Speakers can create Polls event-wide if they have a Speaker Profile created. Moderators can create and manage Polls in their assigned Moderated Session or Expo Booth only. See our guide Organizers, Moderators, Speakers - Understanding Roles & Permissions for more information. 

Publishing and Unpublishing Polls

Once the Poll is created and listed on the Polls tab, Event Organizers can choose to publish or unpublish them at any time throughout the event.

Click on the three dots ••• at the top right hand corner of the Poll and select Publish/Unpublish from the drop down list that appears.

A small pop-up will appear asking you to confirm your choice, and click Confirm to continue.

Note: If you Unpublish a poll, Attendees won’t be able to see that Poll anymore, but your results will still be available in the Event Dashboard. 

Deleting Polls

Once the Poll is created and listed on the Polls tab, Event Organizers can Delete them at any time throughout the event.

Click on the three dots ••• at the top right corner of the Poll and click Delete from the drop down menu that appears.

A small pop-up will appear asking you to confirm your choice, and click Confirm to continue.

Note: If you delete a Poll, the Poll and its results will disappear and there is no way to get them back.

Editing Polls

Once the Poll is created and listed on the Polls tab, Event Organizers can choose to edit them as long as they have not been voted on.

Click on the three dots ••• at the top right hand corner of the poll and select Edit from the drop down list that appears.

Another panel will open where you can adjust the possible answers as well as who the Poll is visible to (under Show advanced settings). Click Save changes once you have finished.
