The Three Views
The left sidebar lets you switch between three views of your content.| View | What it contains |
|---|---|
| My Presentations | All presentations you have created or own, organised into any folders you have set up |
| Shared with Me | Presentations that other AhaSlides users have shared with you |
| Trash | Presentations you have recently deleted — these can be restored before permanent deletion |
Creating a New Presentation
Prefer to work from existing content? You can also import a PowerPoint or PDF directly from the dashboard. See the Importing a Presentation section below for details.
Organising into Folders
Folders help you keep large libraries tidy — by team, topic, event, or any structure that suits your workflow.Add presentations to the folder
Drag a presentation card into the folder, or open the ⋯ menu on the presentation card, choose Move to, and select the destination folder.
Actions on a Presentation
Every presentation card has a ⋯ menu that reveals a set of actions you can take.| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| Present | Launch the presentation in presenter mode immediately |
| Rename | Change the display name of the presentation |
| View Report | Open the results report showing audience responses from all past sessions |
| Reset Results | Clear all stored audience response data so the presentation is ready for a fresh session |
| Duplicate | Create an identical copy of the presentation in My Presentations |
| Share | Invite collaborators to view or edit the presentation, or copy a sharing link |
| Move to | Move the presentation into a folder or back to the root level |
| Move to Trash | Send the presentation to the Trash (can be restored before permanent deletion) |
| Leave | Remove yourself from a presentation that another user shared with you |
Bulk Actions
When you need to move or remove several presentations at once, bulk actions save time. Select multiple presentation cards by clicking the checkbox that appears in the top-left corner of each card when you hover over it. Once two or more cards are selected, a bulk action toolbar appears at the bottom of the screen. From there, choose Move to to relocate them all to a folder, or Move to Trash to delete them in one step.Sorting and Searching
Keep your dashboard organised by controlling how presentations are listed.- Sort order — Click the sort dropdown and choose Recently Edited, Recently Created, or Alphabetical to reorder the cards in the current view.
- Search — Use the search bar at the top of the dashboard to find any presentation by name. The search covers all folders and the Shared with Me view simultaneously, so you do not need to navigate into each folder manually.
Importing a Presentation
If you have an existing slide deck, you can bring it into AhaSlides and add interactive elements on top. Click Import in the dashboard toolbar, upload a .pptx, .ppt, or .pdf file, and AhaSlides converts it into an editable presentation. Each slide in your file becomes a slide in AhaSlides, ready for you to layer on polls, quizzes, and other interactive types. For full details on supported formats, file size limits, and conversion tips, see the Importing Files guide.If you ever need help, click the blue chat bubble in the bottom-right corner of any AhaSlides page to reach the support team directly.
