Not so much a question as a feature request. (I thought we had a category for that.) Please add the ability for an organizer to allow a specific panelist (or all panelists) to view ALL question...
Hi Levi,
While GoToWebinar Organizers can make an Attendee question public one by one, the default behavior is for privacy in this regard.
There is currently no function for 'upvoting', however you could make a Polling Question on the fly (while in session) which reflects a particular question asked.
Thanks, AshC.
Yes, but it is not really just "by default" that questions are private...there is no way to change this setting. That's what I was suggesting should change.
For some of my webinars, I receive a lot of feedback saying "I wish we could have seen the questions other people were asking" and, sometimes, I would like to at least have the option to switch that on. It does exist as an option, I believe, in GoToTraining, so it must be possible, technically.
I hadn't thought of the polling on the fly option to achieve the 'upvoting' - although that would rely on having one or two people helping me deliver the webinar, as this isn't something I could do while presenting. Also, I am not sure it quite as neat as upvoting. It feels a little bit like I am exposing the people who asked the losing questions by doing it in a poll.
Other systems - like WebinarJam and BigMarker - just this open chat and upvoting stuff pinned down. I chose GoToWebinar because, in other respects, the product wins through. But it was a much closer call than it should have been, given that GoToWebinar doesn't have these increasingly standard options.
