error message in powerpoint

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

How to use Slido in the same presentation for different groups at different times.

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?

Can I present WITHOUT the Extension?

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?

Better layout for open ended questions

We’re considering switching from Menti beacuse of your better google slides integration. However, one thing that is holding me back is the open ended question format. Here Menti allows to show much more on one slide:  Maybe this is something you can add/improve on slido?

Changing Slido account attached to a PowerPoint presentation

Hello!I am a new Slido user.  I am looking to integrate a poll with a presentation created by a colleague - when I try and log in from my account it says that the presentation is linked with someone else’s account (my colleague’s).  How do I get it to switch over to using my Slido account?

Trouble Advancing Past the Slido Slide

Hello, Slido is working great except for one issue. I get to a Slido Slide and wait for it to be populated and that works great, but when I try to advance past the slide it doesn’t do anything. Then when I click a second time, it moves, but goes two slides forward. This is happening on both of my windows laptops. I’m running Windows 10, PowerPoint 2019. Any help would be appreciated..

How does integrating your polling questions into PPT work for multiple users?

If polling questions are integrated into a PPT presentation, how does it work for multiple users/presenters? Do they need to log in to Slido? Do they also need to have the PPT integration app on the laptop they are presenting from? If there are meetings going on at the same time could the presenters be logged in to separate sessions utilizing the same polling questions?

Can I find the raw results of ranked choice surveys?

I’ve run an AGM a for a club, electing a new committee with multiple positions.  I used a ranked choice system assuming the system would calculate in “rounds of voting” and not use a points based system.  Is there a way to find the raw data with the participants initial choices? (Eg. 30 participants ranked choices.)

SLIDO for PPT query for event of selecting a specific space

When trying to insert a poll in PPT via the SLI.DO plugin, you first need to select an event. When you have lots of events this is a long alphabetical list without query or sorting options. Can a simple query be added or a selection based on a specific space? That would reduce the number of events and make inserting polls much easier for large events.

Slido doesn't show up in PowerPoint

Hi all,I experience problem after update is done on Slido add-in. It asked me to make an update while I was using PowerPoint and since then it doesn’t show up as add-in icon on Home tab.I tried with reinstalling, repairing, also with SlidoforAdmin 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 transferes 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

Slido Ideas in Power Point

Hi Community, I have recently downloaded the Slido plugin for Power Point. I cannot seem to get Ideas to work in Power Point, can anyone confirm if they are using this please and if so what I am required to do to enable. I am running a workshop where I plan to ask the audience for a list of ideas and then rank their priority, using upload and down vote features. I do not wish to use a predefined lists of responses for voting against. Many thanks Question1234

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!
