Version Will Expire Soon Slido Message

I just opened my PowerPoint and saw the following message in the Slido bar. I’m not sure what to do. “Your version will soon expire. Please close PowerPoint and update before April 21, 2025 via slido.com/powerpoint-polling or contact your IT administrator.”

Adding Q&A from different rooms to PPT

Hello. I am hosting an event which has a variety of sessions, for which I have created separate rooms. When I go to add the Q&A session for each room, it only allows one session. For example, if I add a Q&A slide from one room, it’s fine. But if I go to add another slide from the same event but different rooms, it changes the original one to whichever I choose as the second slide. My goal is to have a single PPT deck that brings up the Q&As from each session on a different slide. Is this possible?

How do I use my own slide/template for a Slido question rather than the Slido white background?

I have a Slido question in my presentation. The slide background is white when in presentation mode although I have formatted the slide. How can I use my own formatting?

Can I split a quiz between two or more powerpoints?

I have a long quiz slido and I want to know if is possible to split the questions in consecutive powerpoints that belong to one unique training content. So, I want to keep people engaged in the competition through the training and I want to have a unique final leaderboard with the winners and a unique analytics. Is it possible? If the training lasts 3 days, can I have the same slido shared in these powepoints and still run the same competition? Is there some considerations to work like that? Thank you in advance.

Slido Spaces in PowerPoint

Hello, I am a member of multiple spaces. When in a PowerPoint presentation, how do I switch into the desired space in order to populate the PowerPoint presentation with the correct set of polling questions? In other words, I’m trying to set up my PowerPoint but am currently “trapped” in a space I don’t want to be in. How to I switch to a different space? I’ve logged out of the PowerPoint and Slido. Then, logged back into Slido and re-opended the PowerPoint. Again, the PowerPoint populated with polls from the wrong space. Thanks!

Device limit on Slido Power Point Plugin

Is there limit of how many devices you can install the slido power-point plugin? For example, If you purchase the Engage license which comes with one member, are you restricted to installing the power point plug-in to a single device, or you can install the plugin to as many devices as you need. Thanks for your time in advance.

Automating the activating of polls (integrated in PPT)

Powerpoint plugin "authorization in progress" times out

Hi there, I’m having trouble logging into Slido through the Powerpoint for windows plugin. I click on the “login” button, it opens a browser (chrome) window, I login through the browser and get a “login success” message on the browser. Meanwhile, the plugin window on Powerpoint shows a spinning circle and “authorization in progress” but after about 10-15 seconds, it returns to the “welcome to slido” login window. Any help on troubleshooting this would be really appreciated.

How do I stop presentations going to full screen when using PPT and presenting through Slido?

How do I stop presentations going to full screen when using PPT and presenting through Slido? When I’m delivering training in Teams (I’m an external trainer), the PPT presentation goes to full screen which means that I can’t see chat or the people in the meeting. How can I stop it doing this?
