Insert a Google Slides Presentation on a Web Page


Google Slide presentations provide an excellent means for displaying rotating panels of images and / or information. Using a separate Gmail account, you have access to the Google Slides feature. Using their interface, you can create multiple slide presentations and place them throughout your site as needed.

So just to be clear, you will not use the PiperWebs interface to create the slide presentation. The slide presentation is created using Google Slides. When you've finished creating the presentation within Google Slides, then you can follow the instructions below to obtain 'embed' code, which can then be inserted into your website using the PiperWebs system.




     
  1. Instructions for obtaining and embedding your Google Slides code:

  2. Once you have created a Google Slides presentation, under the Google Slides “File” menu, select “Publish to the web…”
  3. On the popup window that appears, click the “Embed” tab
