Turn on polls for many sessions at once
Instead of opening each session's Advanced Settings, you can switch polls on or off for many sessions from one window:
- Go to Engagement > Session Engagement > Polls.
- Click the Enable for sessions button (the checklist icon next to the session dropdown).
- In the Enable polls for sessions window, search by session, speaker or track, then turn the switch on for each session, or click Enable all or Disable all for the sessions shown.
- Check the counter, for example 12 of 20 sessions enabled, and click Save Changes.
Attendees can vote only in sessions that have polls turned on. The Allow Poll for this session option in each session's Advanced Settings still works and shows the same setting.
