We are proud to present another feature this week: the possibility to reorder the incoming questions to the interview.
The interface is very easy to use, and allows you to send the question to the top, to the bottom or raise it one position up or lower it one position down, as you can see in the following screenshot:

When you want to insert a bunch of questions for the Q&A / Interview that you would like to publish with Dilmot, this new feature will save you a lot of time. The alternative to using this bulk import method would be to enter a question at a time, using the form.
Just prepare a simple text file with the list of questions you want to import into the stream. For example:
Ann: How long ago did you start preparing your last movie?
John: What did you think about the critics you received in Cannes?
Kim: When are you planning your next tour in Spain?
The syntax has 3 rules:
- One question per line
- Separate the name of the person and the question with a colon before the question
- Leave a blank line between questions
Then, save the file as a .txt file and go ahead and import it. The menu shows inside the admin stream page.
Import questions to the Q&A or Interview you publish with Dilmot
Select the file with the questions in the above explained format.
The imported questions will be shown for your confirmation beforehand
If there is any problem, cancel and make sure that the .txt file is properly formated. If it is like you like, just confirm the action.
There is also the possibility to import questions and answers, a closed stream. But for the moment this action is reserved to premium accounts.
Get in touch with us to get support regarding this new functionality. We hope you enjoy it and saves you time in your daily Q&A work.
It has never been easier. You do not need a dedicated web or your own development and code maintenance. We will do it for you!
With Dilmot on-line interviews you will be able to organise your real-time chats embedded in your web. It is very easy, see the example below:
Unlike chat platforms, Dilmot offers the possibility to moderate the discussion in your website. It is necessary to filter questions when you are opening the turn of questions to a large audience, and especially if this large audience is the web at large.
Every question can be discarded, edited or approved. The guest will only see approved questions so this wlll speed up the process significantly Should the question need any modification, this can be done right at the same moment.
