Presentation mode - leave questions open while running to next slide?

Hi, I was wondering if the following is possible, but can’t find anything. I want to run a poll during a presentation. However, once I go to a next slide, I want to keep the question open. I always have 1 “normal” slide and 1 polling slide. Is it possible that users can actually go back, once the new question is automatically displayed, but they want to keep adding their answer(s) to the prior question? Thank you!

Using presenter view in PowerPoint

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 to recycle poll questions (same presentation but different audience)?

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

PPT slido extension keeps timing out - cant make changes

It is consistent enough that its not coincidence.  Everytime I open a PPT with Slido, it works for approximitely 5min. After 5 min, if i try to edit or add anything to my slido presentation it says “cannot save changes”. I close the PPT and re-open and it works again. Internet is fine and everything else works on my computer.

Can't delete connection to Powerpoint!

Hello  I tested slido a few weeks ago with my private account. Now we have made a business account. But now I always get this message: I must be able to delete this link. I have deleted all surveys and even deleted my account. Nothing has worked.... Re-creating the PowerPoint is out of the question as there are over 100 pages. Thank you for your quick help. Greetings Daniel

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?

How to run polls using PPT Presenter mode?

When I run ppt in presenter mode, I can see the Slido placeholder, but there is no way to activate the poll.  If I “present” from the Slido integration to start the poll, I cannot see my presenter notes while presenting.  How can I work around this?

How do I log into my upgraded account?

I recently purchased the one-time $60 plan for an event I’m hosting on Tuesday February 6, 2024.  When creating my Slido polls in my presentation however, I notice am still to three polls.  I thought I was allowed unlimited polling for this single event?  How does that work?

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.

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?

Quiz in Slido pluggin for PowerPoint

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?

Showing all quiz results at the end of a lecture

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.

Using Slido with "Browsed by an individual (window)" in PowerPoint not working

Running two monitors and I regularly use the feature in PPTX Set Up Slide Show menu under Show Type “Browsed by an individual (window)” instead of “Presented by Speaker (full screen).”  Doesn’t seem like Slido works with the browsed by an individual….when I start the show and get to a slido slide, it displays the instructions “Start presenting to display the joining instructions on this slide...” and the QR code float in a separate window on my other screen.  Other posts I’ve read said you MUST run Slido in full screen, which I’m hoping isn’t the case.  My setup:Large 49” monitor with Microsoft PowerToys split into 3 columns, one of which I run PPTX. My second screen is my 15” laptop screen and that’s off to the side, so if I must run full screen PPTX in there to get Slido to work properly, I have to look away from my camera while presenting.  I’m not interested in using Presenter Mode because I need other screen real estate. Are there any workarounds? Why can’t Slido load properly whe
