Session Q A

Asking and Answering Questions in Session Q&A

Session Q&A gives everyone at your session one shared place to ask questions, upvote the ones they care about, and read official answers. It works for attendees who want to be heard and for organizers who need to spot the most-asked question at a glance.

Prerequisites

You need to be part of a live session or event in Velora before the Q&A opens.

Ask a Question

How to get there: Session > Q&A

1. Open the session and tap Q&A.
2. Tap the Ask a question… box at the bottom.
3. Type your question.
4. Tap the send icon, or press return on your keyboard.

Your question appears in the list right away with an OPEN label, your name, your photo, and how long ago you posted it.

Tip

Keep each question to one idea. “What time does the sangeet start?” and “Is parking free?” get answered faster as two separate questions than as one long paragraph.

Upvote the Questions You Want Answered

Upvotes tell the organizer what the room actually wants to know.

1. Scroll to a question you agree with.
2. Tap the thumbs-up icon below it.
3. Tap it again to take your vote back.

The number beside the icon is the running total, and the icon fills in once your vote is counted.

Next Best Action

Once questions start flowing, most organizers:

• For large sessions: switch the sort to Most Upvoted and work down the list
• For small sessions: keep Newest on and answer in order

Filter and Sort the List

How to get there: Session > Q&A

1. Tap All, Open, Answered, or Dismissed along the top to narrow the list.
2. Tap the label beside Sort by: to flip between Newest and Most Upvoted.
3. Pull down on the list to refresh it with the latest questions.

Tip

During a 300-guest Diwali meetup, Open plus Most Upvoted is the fastest view: it hides everything you have already handled and floats the biggest question to the top.

Answer, Dismiss, or Remove a Question

How to get there: Session > Q&A > question card > ⋮

1. Tap the ⋮ icon on the question card.
2. Choose Answer, type your reply, then tap Submit.
3. Choose Dismiss to close a question without replying.
4. Choose Delete to remove a question from the list entirely.

Answers appear under the question in a green panel labelled with the name of whoever replied, and the question switches to ANSWERED.

Danger

Delete removes the question and its answer for everyone, permanently. Use Dismiss instead if you only want it out of the open queue.

Next Best Action

After clearing the queue, most organizers:

• For recurring questions: add them to the event FAQ
• For follow-ups: message the guest directly

Troubleshooting

“No questions yet” - Nobody has asked anything for this session. Pull down to refresh, or be the first to ask.

Nothing happens when I tap send - Your question box is empty or holds only spaces. Type some text and try again.

My question is missing - A filter may be hiding it. Tap All to see every question, including dismissed ones.

The list looks out of date - Pull down on the list to reload it.

My upvote did not stick - Tap the thumbs-up once and wait for the count to update; a weak network can delay it.

Answer and Dismiss are missing from the menu - Those options only appear while a question is still open. Answered and dismissed questions can only be deleted.
