Instructions to users

guys, on a recent demo vid there were some really nice instructions integrated into the board explaining functionality i.e. copy/paste / how to write comments etc. Is this available anywhere?

Dimensions of a board

I struggle with the dimensions of the templates and frames on my Miro-Board. My case is:  I have a Miro Board with different activities, for each activity I made a frame of template.  All the frames together, are the flow of the workshop.  But how do I know how big the frames must be? When is it big enough for the participants to have a good overview, to read the text in the frames when they zoom in? And how are my letters?  What is a good size of the frame to get a good structure of your board? Or, is anybody willing to share his or her template? So that I have an example?  Thanks a lot,  Mireille

Stacking Custom Cards

I have a requirement and trying to find if this is possible or not. I have custom designed cards. while providing training i want those cards to be available to my clients as a stack, so that during a collaboration session anyone can use them multiple times. Just like the Stack of Sticky notes i want my custom cards to be available as a stack. Is there a possiblity of doing so.

Combine User Story Maps into one?

We created several user story maps for different parts of the process to ease facilitation. Now we’re reviewing those maps and want to combine all three into one and clean up overlap.  Is there a way to connect the end of one map’s backbone to the start of the next map’s backbone?

Is it possible to take a group of stickies and connect them so they move like a mind map?

I have created a group of stickies from client discussions and as I link them together I realize that it would be helpful to connect them into a mind map. Is it possible to easily perform this task? I’ve connected them but when I move them around the connected cards do not move and flow like a mind map which would be helpful.   Thanks, Glenn

Miro board link shared through the new public access feature and by using the Zoom chat feature did not appear as an actionable link

Miro and Zoom : sharing Miro board through new public access feature  I am running a consultant plan since a couple of weeks.  I had several times the same problem: a Miro board link shared through the new public access feature and by using the Zoom chat feature did not appear as an actionable link at my meeting participants. Sometimes sending through e-mail or through Slack worked. 70% of the time I had failures. I set the “can edit” option in the public access to board link. Is this a known error?  Very annoying when you work with a client. Thanks for any advice, hints, work arounds, etc.

I’m looking for a platform that allow me to have whiteboard that have real time collaboration and screen sharing. Screen Sharing in Miro doesn’t share another Chrome Tab. Does Miro have this function? Cause I’m teaching primary student, So i will need to show them some virtual manipulative in another website. Pls advice. Thank you in advance. Stay safe :)

Which plan to choose

I have a corporate customer and I want to run my presentation skills online-course for this company on Miro board. There will be 41 participants. And this online course will last for 4 weeks. Each participant will have his/her learning trajectory. The new task will appear on board every other day and participants will do their homework in the corresponding frames before the next task appears. Along with the participants there will be 4 of my assistants. Their job will be to help the participants when needed and give them feedback on their work. May be if it works well I will run more courses like this for groups from 5 to 50 people. What plan should I choose? Is “Consultant” a good option for this case?

Public sharing via link not working

I want to allow people with link to edit a board (together). I’ve just signed up for the consultant plan. I follow the instructions, click on “share” at the top right corner of the board, and only get the option to invite to the team by email. How do I activate the option to share a link?   Thanks!

Text blur option for Retro board

I’m setting up the Retro board. Instead of writing notes at the meeting (what worked well, not worked well questions), I’d like the member to fill the note before the meeting without others to read it. Fun Retro app had a text blur setting until the facilitator to reveal it. I was wondering if there is any solution for Miro?

Can we temporarily freeze participants to keep all on the “same page”?

Is there a way to temporarily freeze and disable participants from freely scrolling around the Miro interface while we’re working on a collaborative project? I would love to be able to temporarily freeze access so that I can keep all participants on the “same page” and focused on one board at a time when necessary. Any insight on how this can be done would be very much appreciated.

Guest editors able to continue working on the board with paying user "absent"?

Hi, dears,  I have a question for those of you already having a Team plan and tested some workshops with external guest editors:  In considering to upgrade to a paying plan, I was wondering if guest editors are able to, the days after the workshop they attended, to continue working freely and on their own on the (public) board created by the paying user? That is even if the user has not “opened” the board, i.e. the paying user is not present on the board at that moment? On Miro Help center we read that “Guest Editors will have access to the board as long as it's public”, but I would like some confirmations on that following your direct experience :)  Thank you!

What's the best way to get people to input text?

Running a workshop here in the next month and I am trying to find the most user friendly way to enter people’s responses. The issue is this: I have a segment in my workshop where I ask open-ended question. For example, “What are some healthy habits?” I would like even the least tech savvy attendees to be able to enter text. I have tried using stickies but they are quite difficult to use because they require you to double click in a specific spot. Furthermore, the formatting toolbar that appears is unnecessary and could lead to further confusion. Any thoughts on what tools to use?

Best way to allow multiple people to easily participate, and Can't get a single consultant plan!

I’m running a workshop on Wednesday. I’d like to use Miro for participants to put virtual post-its on a board. I don’t want them to have to create an account - I want the experience for them to be as easy as possible for them. (As it is with Jamboard, the other option I might use). Can I do this with the free account? If not, can I use the consultant account?  Which brings me to problem number 2 - I’ve tried signing up for a consultant account, but it only gives the option for 2 consultants or more, and there’s just one of me!   Thanks in advance for your help...

Upgrading - What is the best plan for me?

Hi there, I am kind of a rookie here but I find the toll of great use. Thanks ! My question would be : I am currently on the free plan. There’s a lot of nice features, but I would like to have more than 3 boards and to use projects. But most of the time, I am using Miro alone and sometimes sharing content with people I mentor.  What is the best plan for me, as I pretty much alone in my team (TTeam plan needs 2 users min as weel as the consultant plan); Any advice ? Thanks !

Expanding Text Box to reveal card

Hey team - Is there a way to expand textboxes like how cards currently do? I’m creating a pretty in-depth timeline for a project and the way cards appear aren’t very helpful since it takes up so much space, the text is extremely small unless you zoom out too far and the title can’t be boldened/formatted. Textboxes are far much more useful for this particular use-case so adding a function to be able to expand it like cards to reveal the same type of area to write notes would be awesome. Pls advise. Thanks!

Worried about upgrading - Need to be on more than 1 team - Free plan and my own Consultant Plan

I am currently within a team on a FREE plan. I want to have another space, my own space that is for my clients and projects. If I 'upgrade' will i damage the FREE space that the team is working on? (I am not the owner of the FREE space. Will I still be on the that team that holds the FREE space? I need both: 1) to be part of the original team on the FREE plan and 2) create my own CONSULTANT plan space to work on other types of projects.

Paid licenses not showing up

I’m really confused as I just paid for 3 additional licenses (with me making it a 4 person team).  I received the invoice with a copy of the charge hitting my credit card.  However when I go to add folks to my team it stated that I only had 1 additional full license.  Therefore, I have 2 folks that I can’t add (even though I have an invoice saying I paid for them).   Who can I contact for support?
