Slido for PowerPoint

Hey,I first tryed the free membership on SLIDO. In this free membership I created some polls in powerpoint.Some days later I got to know, that my organization (Heilbronn university, Germany) has an organizational account.So now I need to know how to transfer the existing polls in powerpoint (pptx) from one account (organization) to another account (organization).Thanks a lotWolfgang 

My presentations with Slido are suddenly having problems. They open but when launched, Powerpoint closes again. Up until yesterday, everything was working fine. Then today, nothing. I get a txt file called debug log in the folder where the presentation is located. When I open it, this message appears: [0911/163749.606:WARNING:main_runner.cc(261)] Alloy bootstrap is deprecated and will be removed in ~M127. See https://github.com/chromiumembedded/cef/issues/3685When the PPT presentation fails to launch, I am asked if I want to open PPT in safe mode. Has anyone else encountered this problem, and what might be an adequate solution? 

Hello,I created a slide deck with a Slido poll. I plan on hosting multiple meetings on different days and times. Can I use the same slide deck without losing my poll information or do I need to create different decks for each group? 

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!

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?

Hello there,Whenever I add a Slido-slide to a ppt, ppt crashes completely and need to restart. The add-in itself works fine in the right bar, I can switch sessions, add/remove/edit interactions as usual, but ppt does not want me to actually add the interaction slide to the presentation and immediately responds with “PowerPoint is not responding” without the option to wait for it to respond, only giving the option to restart. One out of five times, I also get the option to save the presentation before closing, but it is always closing the presentation. Once the slide is in it works flawlessly in presentation mode, but getting the slide in there is an iterative process that can go up towards 20 minutes of constant tries before I am allowed to save the slide to the presentation. I have downloaded the newest version of the ‘Slido ppt add-in’ from the website (4th of June, 2024) and it makes no difference.Any clue of what is going on? I mean.. it works, but it worked as intended previously

In the last few days, I have started getting an error message when I save my PPT files adding a new Slido question or editing an existing question within a presentation. These are presentations that I have been working on, so neither the PPT, nor the Slido portions are new. Everything works as normal until I go to save to save, then I get a message that says “The file is corrupt and cannot be opened.” This prevents me from saving the updated file. As long as I don’t make changes to the Slido, the PPTs work fine and the presentations are working okay.I tried to uninstall and reinstall Slido, but nothing changed. My IT support didn’t have any additional ideas, so I thought I would reach out to other users to see if anyone else has experienced this.Any help would be appreciated!Thanks,Tami

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?

For smoother transition between Powerpoint slides and Slido questions, I have found that it is best to set the Transition on your Slido slides, to none rather than fade or anything else.  Otherwise you will see the Slido placeholder first before Slido loads the question webpage because that operation does not occur until the powerpoint transition is complete.

Hi, I would like to uninstall slido form power point. I don’t want to use it anymore, and I want it to be totally removed.I tried already to remove it from my App on my computer, but it didn’t delete it from PPT. I don’t want it at all aynmore. How can I do ? Thank you very much

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.

Hello,I try to use Slido with Powerpoint.I created a Survey and I’m wondering if there is a possibility that the survey questions are displayed on screen after I open the slide.The only thing I’m able to show is the title iof the survey.Or do I have to show the slide with the survey questions and run Slido from outside Powerpoint (either with Slido Switch or from the Slido admin) ?RegardsPascal

Dear SlidoThanks for a great service.I have a problem that I hope you can help me resolve.Currently I run the same presentation / training i 20 different places. I use a set of polls to engage but also for collecting data.Currently, I copy my presentation and the re-setup my slido poll questions. Because I want to save data collected and not having to reset the presentation every time.I’ve experienced a few times that the system crashes if I reuse my own poll templates.In sum, is there an easy way for me to use slido across my presentation without having to have 20 individual presentations and without having to (download the results) then delete the results by resetting the polls? I hope my problem and questions is clear?Thanks in advanceSonny 

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 extension 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?

Following system upgrades on my device I can no longer integrate Slido into Powerpoint. I have followed all instructions to re-install it. Slido is now installed on my laptop and the relevant permissions granted by my organisation, but despite re-loading Powerpoint it is not there to add in. Any advice on how I get it to integrate please? Thanks

When I have a slido in my PPT and then present my PPT in a teams meeting, I cannot see the slido QR code or the code to log in. I can only see it if I run the presentation and share my screen. But that means, with presentation notes my 2nd screen is blocked and I can’t see my audience.

Why is ppt integrated Sli.do telling me I don't have access to my Sli.do?  It is telling me I need to switch accounts or request access

I have added a Slido to my powerpoint, and realised it was the wrong one from my list of Slido’s….how do I change it?I have searched the settings and can not see it for looking, when I add a slide it just adds it to the wrong Slido..

Hello there,I am using my account and trying to connect Slido with my powerpoint but I get an error message “No access to this slidoRequest access from the slido owner or switch to an account with access.Request was sent -You'll get an email once the owner approves your request.”I have checked my inbox but no request.Any idea what the issue could be?Thank you.  

Please assist, as I have installed the Slido for PowerPoint, but when opening PowerPoint, I do not have the green Slido option to continue? 

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?

Hello,I have sucessfully downloaded Slido in my Windows. However, it appears as a red exclmation mark on the icon. When I try to login, it opens my browser asking me to login. When I click on my account and login in browser, the window in PowerPoint returns to ask me to sign in. Windows and Microsoft 365 are up-to-date. Tried different browser and restart the app & desktop.Thank you very much if anyone can help.

I’m getting a message that i don’t have access to this slido and to request access from the slido owner. But all I’ve done is open my PowerPoint and click on the Slido button.

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

Hello, I would just like to get clarity on my situation. I am currently using the free plan, and invited others to do so, too, as a way to engage participants. They have already created their own slidos using their accounts, and I only requested access for me to help manage them. My question is, if I purchase Engage plan, will I be able to export data from their slidos? Thank you!
