3. That's it! The question is now featured on stage for everyone to see

Interacting with a Featured Question

With a featured question on stage, here's what you can do as the host:

• Invite Asker to Stage: Need some clarification on the question? Or, just want to give credit to the attendee that raised the question? Either way just click on "Invite Guest To Stage" for a shortcut to inviting the attendee that asked the question on stage. 

• Mark Answered: Just like the tick mark on the Q&A tab, you can also mark a question as answered directly by clicking the "Mark As Answered" button. This will also remove the question from both the stage and the Q&A list.
• Remove Question: When you're finished spotlighting a question, you can remove it by clicking "Remove Question From Stage" (but more on this in the section below)
