Zoom slide controll in combination with slido plugin in ppt.

Does anyone else have the following issue.When providing slide control via zoom, and sharing an ppt with the slido add-in, the Slide control stopped working when you come to that slide where slido is, when moving yourself forward to the next slide you need to re-provide the permissions to the people who want to have slide control, then it works again but when you come to the next slido slide it stopped working again.

Updated integration fails to run

While working in PowerPoint with Slido, I received a notice that an update was available. Now that I have completed the update, the PowerPoint integration is not working at all!This is on two different computers running Office 365. One of them gave me a warning that the plug in was not functioning and gave me the option to keep it or disable it while working in PowerPoint.Suggestions or help?My recommendation is that if Slido is working DO NOT update to the newest version yet!

Can I integrate Slido into an existing powerpoint slide?

I’m wanting to run a Slido poll on an existing slide because I want audience members to answer questions about what they see on that slide. Is there a way to do that? I only see ways to make Slido polls a separate stand alone slide.

Can we prevent Slido for Windows from auto-update on the user side?

How can we suppress the autoupdate on the client? We use MS SCCM for the app deployment. When closing the app or PowerPoint it tries to make an update. Can this be suppressed, as the users have no right to install apps on their clients.?Thanks.

PowerPoint - using presenter view - slido not showing correctly

I am planning to use Slido for an online training session in PowerPoint.  I have two screens.  My large monitor with my webcam on the top... and my Surface Pro laptop below.  I use presenter mode on the laptop then swap that to my large screen so I can see me notes clearly and have my eyeline near the camera.  The regular slide show for what the participants see remains below on the laptop. All good usually but when I click through to the Slido poll slides the slido presentation only appears in about 2/3rd of the slide.  Anyone know how to rectify this?  I need my presenter notes on the large monitor up top as I can barely see the surface!

Showing Q&A Replies in PowerPoint

Hello! We used Slido for the first time today during a large meeting, and one big bummer that we couldn’t figure out, was a way to show in the PowerPoint presentation the replies that the moderator was responding with. Is this not a possibility? Do you have to have a paid plan or certain settings? Any help would be greatly appreciated. THANK YOU

Running the same PowerPoint presentation multiple times

Hi, I am running multiple rooms with breakout sessions running at the same time with different presentations using quizzes.  I plan to gather an overall “event” leader board to drive some competitive energy throughout this event.  We are repeating the same Powerpoint presentations 10 times over the course of 2 days.Please advise if this is the recommended procedures for the start of each breakout session. OR provide the best alternative.1. Reset sessionRun PPT Presentation (using PPT integration) Once presentation end, Download results for all Rooms RepeatWill this prevent data from previous session to be overwritten?  I can then merge all 10 data-sets to create a overall leader board.

What to do if PowerPoint plugin is not appearing?

Hi! I had installed slido for PPT and it was working perfectly, then I was collaborating on a PPT w/ a colleague, and their version of PPT is different than mine… so after they had edited the slides, the slido plugin no longer worked.  I have un-installed and re-installed it 4+ times, and I still can’t get the plug in to show up in PPT again. Any ideas?

Slido for PowerPoint Error: "You appear to be offline. Check your internet connection."

I followed steps from video to download add-in. As soon as I open PowerPoint, Slido icon says I’m offline. The error never goes away even if I logout of Slido and back in again. I am most definitely not offline. Has anyone seen this error before? Thanks.

How can I make PowerPoint polls take up only part of the slide

Is there a way to have the Slido poll take up only part of the slide so the audience can see the context as well as the poll during a PowerPoint presentation? Or does it always require a full slide to function properly?

Blank screen instead of Slido poll when in PowerPoint presenter mode

Hi,I’m using the Slido PowerPoint integration tool. I’ve included polls in my presentation. When I present the slideshow, once I come to a Slido poll, the screen is blank. If I advance forward to the next slide it continues the presentation. No question or information is displayed and my participants can’t see anything either.Can you help with a solution please?

First slide is repeated for each slide even though the backend shows the different questions.

Everytime I present a full presentation, the first couple slides go well, then all of a sudden it skips back to the first one and then null and voids the rest of the questions.
