Evento ao vivo com moderador e controle remoto
Divida um evento ao vivo: o celular como controle, um link de moderador para perguntas, um link para o telão e ajudantes aprovados por você.
Num evento ao vivo, raramente uma pessoa faz tudo. Alguém passa os slides da lateral do palco, alguém lê as perguntas conforme chegam e um notebook na mesa técnica comanda a tela grande. O PollsLive dá a cada uma dessas tarefas o seu próprio link. Este guia mostra como prepará-los para um evento real, incluindo a mudança mais recente: agora os ajudantes pedem para entrar e você os deixa entrar pelo nome.
Three links, three jobs
- Phone remote (every plan): moves the slides, shows or hides results, starts and ends the session, moderates Q&A and removes participants. It cannot run a prize draw.
- Moderator link (Pro and up, or with an Event Pass): lets questions and open answers onto the screen, or keeps them off it.
- Display link (every plan): the projection only, for the big screen, the AV desk or the PollsLive browser extension.
All three live under Remote & links on the presenter bar. Each link card has a copy button and a QR code, and the phone remote and the moderator link also show a 6-digit PIN. Every link stops working when the session ends.
How a helper gets in
Remote and moderator links need the PIN and your approval. Opening the phone remote or the moderator link takes three steps:
- PIN. Your helper opens the link and types the 6-digit PIN shown next to it in Remote & links. Send the PIN separately from the link, by voice or in another app.
- Name. They type their name and tap Ask to join.
- Your answer. A request appears on your presenter screen, for example "Priya wants to use the remote". Choose Approve or Deny. Their page moves on by itself as soon as you answer.
A forwarded link is not enough on its own. Someone who gets hold of a link and its PIN can only send a named request, which you can see and decline.
Tip
Você não precisa ser técnico para seguir este guia. Cada passo usa botões simples no PollsLive, sem código, sem app para instalar no público.
A display screen works a little differently. It has no PIN: whoever opens the link names the screen, for example "Main hall projector", and it starts showing the session straight away. It still appears in your list, and you can remove it at any time. The PollsLive browser extension keeps using the display link as before.
Três links, três tarefas
People helping, in Remote & links, lists everyone who opened one of your links and whether they are waiting or approved. Remove cuts one person off at once, and their screen tells them the host removed their access. Replace link gives one role a fresh link, and Regenerate links replaces them all and removes every approved helper.
Every slide move, reveal, moderation decision and helper change is recorded with the name of whoever made it. You see it in the Activity list during the session, and it is printed on an Activity page in your PDF export and in the recap PDF you receive. The public shared report leaves it out, so helper names never sit on a link anyone can open.
Sending a link by email
Each link card in Remote & links has Send by email. Enter up to 5 addresses at a time and an optional note, and each person gets a PollsLive email sent in your name. It says what the link lets them do, lists the steps to join, and carries a button and the link itself, with a reminder not to forward it and when it stops working.
When helper approval is on for the room, the PIN is in the email too, and you still approve each helper by name. Otherwise the email asks them to get the PIN from you. While approval is on, the person you sent it to, signed in with that verified address, gets in at once; anyone it is forwarded to still waits for you. Sending needs a verified account email address.
What your moderator sees
The moderator link opens on a dark stage with the PollsLive logo, the room PIN, a Live indicator and how many answers are waiting. On a phone, each answer arrives as a card: swipe right to show it on the screen, or left to keep it off. On a laptop the same queue comes with the roster. The PIN, name and waiting screens use the same stage, so your moderator always knows where they stand.
What the phone remote shows
- Controle remoto no celular (todos os planos): passa os slides, mostra ou oculta resultados, inicia e encerra a sessão, modera o Q&A e remove participantes. Não faz sorteios.
- Link de moderador (Pro ou superior, ou com um Event Pass): deixa perguntas e respostas abertas chegarem à tela, ou as retém.
- Link de exibição (todos os planos): só a projeção, para a tela grande, a mesa técnica ou a extensão de navegador do PollsLive.
What the room sees while answers are hidden
Os três ficam em Remoto e links, na barra do apresentador. Cada cartão de link tem um botão de copiar e um QR code, e o controle remoto e o link de moderador mostram também um PIN de 6 dígitos. Todos os links param de funcionar quando a sessão termina.
Como um ajudante entra
- Start the session a little early and open Remote & links.
- Give the display link to the AV desk, or open it on the presentation laptop and name the screen.
- Send the phone remote and the moderator link to your helpers with Send by email, or copy them and pass on the PIN separately.
- Approve each helper by name as their request appears, and remove anyone you do not recognise.
- Afterwards, read the Activity page in your recap PDF to see who did what.
Every helper link, what it can do, and how helper approval works.
