Ability to display hard-coded new lines
Because I use PollEverywhere in my programming course, it is necessary sometimes to include short pieces of code. However, despite appearing to include the newlines when creating the poll, when that same poll actually displays to the screen, the newlines disappear and everything runs together into a paragraph. I'm not sure whether I am doing something wrong, or if something is going on with the tool.
1 voteWell, there are a few tricks. You can add breaklines by using \n (backslash n) to create a new line.
So, to write the following output:
“How cool is this?
Please note: the answer is Ice Cold”You would type this in the title field:
“How cool is this? \n Please note: the answer is Ice Cold”We also support just about any HTML Entity in the title of the poll question if you want to be fancy. This can get you a lot of various mathematical symbols. You can read about them here: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_entities.asp

Decrease the minimum size of the click box.
The clickable pictures allow you to re-size the box that indicates the correct region. However, the box has a minimum size that is too large for some applications.
Sometimes it is necessary to define a very small region if you want the audience to identify a very precise finding. Ideally there would be no minimum box area, or it would be not much larger than a persons finger on a tablet. A 300 X 300 pixel box would be a good size for a small box if the pictures was full screen on a 2048x1536 pixel iPad. The box could…
12 votesGood news! Smaller regions can now be created. We will flash up a warning if it looks like your region will be hard to hit on some devices, but you can chose to ignore this if your use case suits it.

Embed reports into PowerPoint presentation
I would like to be able to embed a report into the PowerPoint presentation that I am showing the audience, so that they can see the consolidated results of several polls.
1 voteThere’s actually a way to do this right now with our PowerPoint Integration for Windows PCs.
We have the ability to insert any website into your PowerPoint presentation. This can be a video clip, audio clip, game, a full interactive website or…one of own Reporting Pages.
You can see the instructions for how to get this set up here: http://polleverywhere.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/788325

With clickable pictures, have option to NOT reveal if the click was right/wrong (in the box or not).
Right now if you use a clickable picture, the user gets instantaneous feedback if they were right or wrong. Their click shows up as a green check or yellow X on their device. Also, if I want to reveal the clicks on the presenter screens as they are coming in, so the audience can see what everyone is clicking on, it will show which clicks are correct or not. I would like the clicks markers to all be the same (possibly blue) then when the timer runs out, I can reveal who was correct and who was incorrect and have…
10 votesDone! If you are hiding the clickable regions with our show/hide button (eyeball icon) then all of the click markers will appear the same green color. If you show the clickable regions by clicking the eyeball icon then incorrect responses should only then turn yellow. Check it out and let us know what you think!

App Presenter Mode: Add option to show/hide clicks (on clickable image)
In the presenter mode there are buttons to lock/unlike and show/hide results. With multiiple choice show/hide will show or hide the graphed results but with clickable images the show/hide only shows or hides the clickable region and response counter... it ha no effect on show/hide the actual clicks. Could there be another button in the app that shows/hides the click? Just like the show/hide click button present on the website when in presenter mode?
3 votesWe can do this! If you create a clickable image poll one of the grey buttons along the right side of the poll display (visual controls) looks like a click marker or a tear drop icon. This will show/hide the click markers on the screen. Click it once to hide the markers (it will turn blue) and click it again to display them.

Multiple URLs
Consider one account being able to assign multiple URLs and assign specific polls to specific URLs. Currently we have to create separate PollEV accounts or users to add more URLs.
When running polls for multiple clients at the same time more than one URL is needed.
1 voteWe have a number of workarounds and ways to make this possible today. I’ll take you through some I think will work for you
1. Each individual poll question has a unique permalink associated with it that participants can go to and respond. This is especially useful if you are emailing the link, sharing it on a webpage, or the like. This is called the “Shareable Response Link” and it is available for all polls under the Present Panel. You can see more about it here: https://www.polleverywhere.com/guide#emailing_your_poll
2. We also have the ability to have a direct link for your participants to respond to multiple poll questions all at once with our Survey View link. You can read about this here: https://www.polleverywhere.com/guide#multipoll_survey
3. Finally, if you have one of our premium plans which comes with the ability to customize your Username (any plan of $50 or higher value currently) then…

A reporting option to include all participant from a participant group, regardless of a response to the poll.
What is the best way to do attendance? (i.e. a report which lists all participant from a participant group and their corresponding response to a particular poll.) The current reporting only lists participants who answered the poll leaving a cross referencing task to see who is missing.
3 votesWe can do this with our new Participant feature added to our updated Reporting Suite. The step by step details for taking attendance and using Participant Groups can be found here:
http://polleverywhere.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/685605
Otherwise, the basics are;
1. Have all of your students in Participant Groups based on class
2. set your poll questions to registered participants only
3. run a Gradebook report on all of the polls you are using for attendance
4. To the right of the Gradebook report > select the Participants menu > and chose the participant group (class) that you want to report on. It will include all students who are in this group, but did not respond -
Insert a picture with my poll question
Hi,
I am a math teacher. I really appreciate what Poll Everywhere has done to improve my classroom management.
I hope I can add some graphs in my poll questions (e.g.Geometry questions). I think it will be very helpful to me!
Thank you in advance.
4 votesWe can do this right now! We built a feature to display an image along with the question for Multiple Choice Polls if you are in Instructions View. This would allow you to create a graph and add it as an image to the poll. You can see the details for how here – http://polleverywhere.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/472161

Images in the question - without toggling the Show/Hide
Presenting from a Keynote/PPT with an image as part of the question (in the Instructions View) is very useful, but problematic.
To show the results a team member needs to click the Show/Hide button in the browser. The deck does update almost instantaneously (much kuddos). This strategy runs multiple risks: a mis-click, timing between presenter and clicker off, miscommunication, need for extra coordination...
1 voteYou can add a side-by-side image to our Multiple Choice Poll questions that will not require showing/hiding. You can see how here:

PowerPoint presenter app
Can you please present it in a visible place so we will not have to search for it every time we need to install it on a new computer? This is a pretty major app and should be found easily.
Dr. Cohen-Charash

1 touch spreadsheet icon to generate .csv
A spreadsheet icon for kicking out a .csv of whatever pollev data you're looking at, be it a list of participants, or results for a specific offering of a poll, or all offerings of a poll...
0 votesWe can export most of the tables/reports from our website to a .CSV (Excel) file today. For example, all of our Reports are exportable to .CSV – it is an option on the bottom right of the Reporting Page. Our “Manage Users” Page will also have a CSV export on the bottom right. If anyone wants to have a report of anything else and you cannot see how – let us know at Support@PollEverywhere.com and we’ll see what we can do!

More options for runs of polls
I'd like to use the same poll multiple times during the semester, but I have 3 sections. It is a poll asking students how they are doing - sort of taking the pulse on the class.
I want each class to see their own section's results live, but then look at the data in aggregate the next day.
Right now, I run the poll, click "clear results" etc.
When I look at the report, I select "all runs" to get the whole day's worth of data.Here's the problem: when I do this again, I still have all the results…
2 votesYeah! Whenever you clear or archive multiple poll questions at once you can name your run. This will create a Shared Run which you can then report upon. You can then run reports on these shared runs for a specific class OR over All Runs to see how everyone has done.
You can see more details for exactly how to do this here: https://polleverywhere.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/764091

Custom Polls rules - make them even better
Make custom keywords unique for each poll - so that custom keywords can be repeated through all polls (i.e. Yes, No etc.)
