Push: Choose Which Poll to Display on Your PollEv Page

Push A Poll to Your PollEv Page

With the release of Mobile Presenter Tools, we introduced a completely new feature, Push. We’ve now implemented this feature on the full site as well. For those running polls directly from the site, this is a big change.

Push allows you to manually select a poll to display on your PollEv page. In the past your PollEv page would update automatically to display the poll you were currently viewing as the presenter. **Your PollEv page will still update automatically from a PowerPoint presentation or when using the Mac Presenter App.** But now you will manually select which poll you’d like to display on your PollEv page from the website or mobile app by clicking on the Push Button. Clicking the button again will remove the poll from your PollEv page.

**Note: This feature is designed to be used live. Pushed polls will only remain on your PollEv page for 3 hours by default. You can change this setting in your account’s Personal Settings.Push_timeout

Why is this better?

  • You can now leave a poll question open on your PollEv page for an extended period of time.
  • Poll participants (who have web-enabled devices) without using a projector.
  • Send warm-up or registration questions without displaying the results live.
  • Monitor polls from the website during a presentation without accidentally updating your PollEv page.
