Default Settings for Profanity Filter
I would like to have a way to configure the profanity filter so that each new question has the default setting of "Censor profanity out of responses." Right now, I have to set that for EACH individual poll I create. I use PollEV in class, usually creating questions on the fly, and it would be nice to have a way to change my default settings for moderation and profanity filter so that each new question is created with my preferences already set.

Sure! We can do that right now actually by setting a Template Poll. You can see some details for how here: https://polleverywhere.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/160776-setting-a-template-poll-default-visual-settings
Here’s the way it works:
- First you create or choose a an open ended polls to be your template
- Then set this poll question to have the Profanity Filter and any other settings you would like as your default for all future poll questions on your account
- click Settings on the top right
- scroll down to Poll Settings > click Set and select this poll question to be your Template.
All future Open Ended Poll Questions you create will then have this enabled by default.
Hope this helps!
