Is it possible to have multiple slidos in one slide deck?

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?

Hey @mstadfield,

You can only connect one slido to a single Powerpoint deck at a time, but if you have a Professional plan or higher you can use Multiple Rooms, which allows you to create different ‘rooms’ within your slido – each having their own separate polling and Q&A.

This means you can create just one slido and add a room for each speaker. This way you will need to open one Present mode and then you can switch between your rooms inside of it. Just remember here that even though these rooms will be a part of the same slido, you still cannot link all of them to the same Powerpoint deck and will need to change the room between sessions - the good news is that the slido code will remain the same.

I hope this helps :) Let me know if you have any more questions.

How do I create multiple elements (e.g. a couple word clouds, several quizzes) in one slido and get them to show when presenting with Slido in PowerPoint?

I have a few elements in my slido, but can only get the first one to come on in ‘Present with Slido’ mode in Pppt.

Hi @Employee Experience,

Sorry for the late response, I hope this issue is not an issue anymore 😅

When you’re using the Slido for PowerPoint integration you should be able to create all your Slido interactions (wordclouds, quizzes, etc.) in the side bar, add them to your deck and afterwards drag the respective interaction to where you’d like them to show within your presentation. After that, they should automatically pop up during present mode. If you’re still experiencing trouble with the integration I can recommend you to reach out to the Slido support via chat or email
