Is it possible to have the live integrated Slido poll while using Presenter view in Powerpoint? Right now, I can only see the poll go active when I click “present” and it goes straight to Slide Show. Am I missing a step or is this a limitation? Thanks!
I’m testing Slido with Google Slides and cannot seem to get the presenter view to work and use Slido at the same time. Is it possible?
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?
Hi, I have created a slido to use in powerpoint in training, also downloaded the slido for powerpoint part. When using a sharepoint versoin of my powerpoint the slido pages are there, but when I download a copy to use off line some of the pages disappear - why is this?
Hi there, I’m considering using Slido for a university open day and over the day there will be around 50 talks happening that would like to involve a Q&A component. Each talk will be based on a different topic and i was wondering if i could use one account for this but have different Q&A sessions running at the same time and how this would work. Would each session need to have a unique QR code or would each have the same QR code and then potentially a code for the guests in that session to enter to then be in the correct Slido Q&A for that session? The QR code would be show on a powerpoint up on the screen and i feel it may be easier for this QR to be universal accross the presentations but then there being a way for the quests to enter the correct session Q&A through the platform. I worry if i need to put 50 unique QRs across the presentations that some may get jumbled and guests ending up in the wrong slido Q&A. Cheers, Tom
Can I present 2 different powerpoints at the same time using the same slido account?
Can we add a multiple choice question from Slido and integrate it in Powerpoint and use it offline?
Please re-instate this key feature as currently are complicated medical questions are not being fully revealed as they wrap off of the page. It used to be possible to scroll these up and down in the presenter view pane.
Hi all,I’m experiencing a problem after an update on the Slido add-in. It asked for an update while I was using PowerPoint and since then it doesn’t show up as add-in icon on Home tab.I tried reinstalling, repairing, also with Slido for Admin but it doesn’t come up and even making changes in registry editor but still nothing. Only thing that I notice is when parameters in registry editor changes, add-in transfers from inactive to active add-ins and becomes active in list of add-ins in PowerPoint. Following, check box is checked when I try to enable Slido but unfortunately there is no luck.Is there any solution that I can try to manage it or I just have to wait for new Slido update?Thank you in advance
Hi, I built a survey with about ~25 questions for a meeting, however some of these questions are just for detailling and staying in our backlog. I would like to show results only for 10 of these questions in PPT - is there any way I can do that?
I want to begin each lecture with four questions to ascertain knowledge of the subject matter that the participants may already have. I do not want them to see the results of the quiz at this point. At the end of the lecture, I will give the same quiz again, but after the time is up for the last question, I would like to reveal the results of the first quiz compared with the results of the second quiz.I’m a real newbie and right now I’m trying to figure out how to keep the results from showing even though I have unchecked the “Show Results” box.
I keep trying to hide results on my polls, but it switches off when I move to the next question.
How can we have names associated with each person’s answer?
We have a multi-day event coming up. We are using a single, consolidated PowerPoint slide deck that will be used by all speakers. Several of the speakers have asked for their own Slido Q&A Session. Using the PowerPoint plugin for Slido I inserted the first of three slidos in the slide deck but when I went to add the next one it told me that by switching to the second slido it affected the one already in place. I tested it by inserting slido #1 on the first slide and then switching to slido #2 and then going back to the the #1 slide. The #1 slide was now pointed at the #2 slido. Is there a way to handle this?
I am doing a presentation with Google slides and the Slido slides are embedded into the presentation. I click present with Slido, but during the presentation, only the joining slide comes up every time a Slido interaction should appear. As a participant, I get the message that there is no live interaction at the moment.
What is the maximum participant limit for voting in a poll in the free version of Slido?Does the poll format matter? For example, if it is multiple choice or open text.
Hi,I’m Sello. I’m a beginner Slido user and I’d like to learn more about Slido with goal to drive engagement during online classes, webinars and meetings that we deliver in our organisation. I am very keen to improve from normal or traditional lecture offering and get students to be actively participating.
How do I switch between multiple rooms in one PowerPoint? We have different cohorts in one large session and so I’ve created rooms for each cohort, but we want them all to respond to the same question and view the results by cohort at the time of the presentation?
I tried downloading the integration for powerpoint and got the following error message:I called my IT team and they said that I should reach out to you all because this is a software issue. Can someone help me with this?Thanks so much,Wendy
Hello,I’m trying to use Slido for Powerpoint.I created a Survey and I’m wondering if there is a possibility for the survey questions to display on screen after I open the slide.The only thing I’m able to show now is the title of the survey.Do I have to show the slide with the survey questions and run Slido from outside Powerpoint (maybe from slido.com)?Regards,Pascal
Hello, I am new to Slido. I am organising a conference where three (and possibly more) presenters want to use Slido integrated into Powerpoint. They all have their own Engage accounts.My understanding is that they need to be logged into their own respective Slido account in order to get their own Slido/Powerpoint presentations to work. How annoying is it for the audience to have to scan several QR codes over the course of the day to interact with the individual lectures? And is it commonly done this way?Thanks – Simon
When attempting to create a Slido quiz in PowerPoint, I can’t connect the questions under one quiz leaderboard. Rather it appears that each slide is an independent quiz. I also tried to add quiz questions through Slido.com, but could not get the questions to load when launching slido through PPT. Is it possible to create and run a quiz with leaderboarding in PowerPoint, or do you have to run the online version?
We will be presenting at a conference soon and the conference will pre-load the presentation on their laptops for my session. Will they need to have the slido add-in on their laptop for me to use slido? Can I still present and have all the necessary features (especially live results from questions) work as they should if they do NOT download the extension?
Hello everyone,When using slido in Powerpoint (under Win 10) I get an error message as shown in the picture when inserting slides.At the bottom it says in red letters: "Oops! Something went wrong."All I can do is click "Okay". If I then want to insert the slide again, the error message comes up again.The only thing that helps is that I close Powerpoint, reload the presentation and then recreate the slide. But that's pretty annoying! I can't always close the entire presentation and restart it to insert new slides.What could be the reason?Thank you for your help!Best regards, buze
Does anyone know what this message means in slido terms? Was doing a normal presentation with some slido plugins on a local powerpoint presentation and this essentially entire page showed up.
