How to run an idea board

An idea board is a campaign of ideas instead of questions. You post the ideas, and the people who can respond vote each one up or down from the board’s link. Each idea’s score shows which ones they want most. It works like a survey in every other way: you open it, share it and close it the same way.

Before you start

• For your organization’s board, you need to be one of its managers. For an event’s board, you need to manage the event or have an event role that includes surveys.

Steps

1. In your organization’s menu, click Comentarios y votación, then Agregar campaña. For a board about one event, use Comentarios y votación in the event’s planner instead.

   

2. Enter a Título and set Tipo de campaña to Tablero de ideas (votación positiva). Leave ¿Quién puede añadir nuevas ideas? on Solo gerentes (los usuarios solo votan a favor): you post the ideas, and people vote on them.

   

3. Choose ¿Quién puede responder?, as for a survey, and click Guardar. Todos los usuarios de Dodgeball Hub lets anyone signed in vote from the link.

   

4. Click the board’s arrow (Ver) to open it.

   

5. Click Agregar elemento.

   

6. Name the idea in Título de la pregunta / idea, explain it in Descripción, and click Guardar. Its Tipo de elemento is Idea (solo votar a favor). Add each idea the same way, and drag one by its handle to move it up or down the board.

   

7. Click Configuración, set Estado to Abierto and click Guardar. Then share the link or notify people, as for a survey.

   

8. People who open the link vote an idea up or down with its arrows, and see its score: votes up minus votes down. Clicking their vote again takes it back, and they can change it while the board is open.

   

9. Back on the board, open the Respuestas tab: each idea shows its Votos positivos, Votos negativos and Marcador.

   

When the vote is over, close the board like a survey: its link then says it’s closed.
