What is everyone using to layout semester long plans?I’ve used frames to orgainze content by topic, I’ve Product Roadmap templates, Frames with items inside of them (which means I have to constantly resize the frame) and am not 100% satisfied with either solution.Some of the key things that I need to do is:Organize materials by week Content needs to be easily moved around as each semester has different holidays Mark tasks as done when they are entered into the LMSThanks for any suggestions you can give!

I’m brand new to Miro and working on creating a large board for facilitating an all day workshop for a smallish group. I initially started by copying over some templates, but as I got comfortable I just started creating my own thing. I’ve discovered that I’m having to use text sizes of 900 for example, and the zoom is set to just a few %. Is there any problem with this? Should I be targeting using “normal” text sizes and doing everything at 100%, or is it totally irrelevant as long as I keep things in proportion to one another?I’m worried that I’m going to get even more hours into setting this up and suddenly realize that actually having apparently huge everything actually screws me up somehow.Any thoughts much appreciated! Thank you,

Hello Everyone,Would anyone be interested in discussing ideas on how best to build board games using MIRO? I build serious games to help clients unlock collective wisdom within groups. I’m using MIRO with some success. Yet, there are challenges.  Let me know.Mark 

I am running a workshop where one of the tasks of the participants is to formulate a statement around their Vision. I wanted to reach out to the Miro Community to see how others are doing it. This is a simplified summary of my approach:  1. I ask them to fill out a survey where they each are to describe their Vision. 2. I invite them to the board where they get 3 dot-votes to vote on the contributions they think are the best (if it is a 10 people team, there will be 10 formulated Vision Statements to vote on). 3. I ask them to look at the results from the vote, and describe the Vision with 1 word only. This creates 10 words which all are probably very important to the Vision.  4. Filled with insights (hopefully) from the vote and the 10 words, I ask them to come up with an updated version of the Vision Statement using the 1-2-4-All tecnhique. I feel that this creates a lot of engagement during the process, but sometimes people are not ending up with a conclusion they hoped for / feel c

Hi everyone!First time starting a topic in the community! Hope you’re safe and well.Has anyone used Miro for musical projects apart from embedding YouTube and Spotify? I’m curious to see if composers can work together in a board to create a group song! Wondering how we can push the limits for collaboration within a virtual workspace.Maybe that could be a jingle or anthem for Mironeers. 

A colleague of yours might want their own copy of a board you own or a client of yours might want to take a copy of a board from your Miro environment to their own Miro team.Copying a board within the same teamThe simplest approach is for your colleague to duplicate the existing board using the Duplicate command which is available from the “…” menu for the board in the Miro dashboard or in the board settings. You can specify the name of the new board, whether it will get created within the same Miro project as the original board or not, and whether to copy the current share settings. Your colleague will need to have full edit access to the original board to do this.   Another option is for your colleague to create a brand-new board, select all the content from your original board (Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C) and then paste it into your new board (Ctrl-V). Again, this requires that your colleague has full edit access to the original board to do this. Finally, you can create a shared custom templat

Hi all,  I wonder if we have avid readers here    As for me, I am reading several books at a time (not sure if it is the right approach though ). They are so different!  The Power of Focus (a self-help book on business, personal and financial success) The Courage to Be Disliked (Alfred Adler’s psychology and philosophy with a little bit of oriental wisdom) The Miracle Morning (very inspiring; that’s the second time I’m reading it) Get Together (a great book on community building) Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (do I even need to explain?  ) Super interested in what Miro Community are reading! Share your books in the comments  Let’s have our own book club 

Has anyone’s company so adopted Miro to the point of completely eliminating PowerPoint?  If so, what was that process / decision like?  How has it gone since? 

I’m interested in examples of how you are using Miro to visually organize complex and nested information for intuitive, asynchronous exploration.  What are we doing to allow communities to “live” asynchronously in Miro beyond live workshops and events?For example, as a:homebase hub library archive system map mission control Some use cases:As basecamp for a conference, organizing all conference-related activities at a glance, like the Mission Control board for Miro’s recent Distributed 101 Conference or this Book Fair shared by @Istanbul Literature House  As the backbone for an entire college course curriculum that students visit each week to find their assignments and weekly workspace. As a hub for a community of practice, to hold an ever-growing collection of learnings, conversation, and resources.  As a map of MULTIPLE cohorts/communities within a large network.  (I’m picturing a map viewed from overhead, with “towns” that represent different communities of practice you can visit, or

Hi all! I’m a semi-newbie to Miro (in that I haven’t used it much) and would like to understand the nuances of it’s application from different people who are active users.  Could anyone point me to some recent case studies or articles where Miro was part of a project/endeavor?     It can be on Medium, a related Miro blog, LinkedIn, etc.  Doesn’t really matter. :)   Thanks in advance!

 💕 Happy Valentine’s Day!  We can hardly express how much the Miro team appreciates every single one of you. From innovative Miroverse templates to helpful conversations, to engaging events, you’re always creating something that helps people learn and grow. So much gratitude from @Colleen Curtis, @Natalie Larino, @Helena Brandist, @Anna Savina, @Olena Avramenko, me, and all of us here at Miro.    Will you help us share the love? Comment here to @ mention someone in the community whom you appreciate, call out your favorite Miro feature, or link to your favorite Miroverse template!

I have been using the Miro Assist Expand with ideas action on mind map nodes and am loving it. However, what has frustrated me is, when I have another objects type, e.g., a sticky note from a brainstorming activity and I want to turn it into a mind map, I have to copy the text, create a mind map, and paste the text into the mind map – that is just too many steps.Given there was no “switch type” action to convert objects into mind maps, but there is CRUD (create, read, update, delete) mind map in the Miro SDK in an experimental release, I had the idea to take @Yash's open-source Cardsy app (that makes cards from other objects) and use it to make a one-click solution to create mind map nodes from other objects.Thanks to @Max Harper for assisting with the final lines of code, you can try it our for yourself here.Install linkThe install link can be found here → https://apps.mirohero.ca/Note:This is an unofficial Miro app. You may also be blocked from installing it from your Miro plan admin

Which are your favorite Miro-apps from the market place when it comes to create games or gamification elements on a miro board? My favorite is the “Dice” app. Very usefull for every activity that needs a dice or some random numbers.https://miro.com/marketplace/dice/ Select between 1 and 5 existing widgets on a Miro board and click on the dice symbol in your toolbar. On every selected widget a new sticker will appear showing a randomly generated number from 1 to 6.Key Features:Select multiple widgets simultaneously. The dice stickers will not disappear and can be deleted when they are no longer needed.  Also the “Totally Random” App is very helpful.https://miro.com/marketplace/totally-random/ The app comes with four starter tools that run simple randomization functions:Pick 1 item at random. Pick a number between a min and max. Divide a group of items into X number of even random groups. Shuffle a group items’ positions randomly. Key Features:Pick 1 item at random: Select several widget

I wanted to share a simple, yet effective technique for hiding content on a Miro board that I first saw used by Greg Kozera during his Virtual Miro User Group presentation: V-MUG03: How to add gamification to your facilitation with Miro.Throughout his presentation, Greg kept his talking points hidden under rectangles that were the same colour as their surrounding, and only revealed the content as he was ready to talk about it. After a while, I found myself curious and excited to see what was coming next!Not only I have started doing this when presenting my own content, but I also started using this approach to hide some objects on the board that I will use at some point, e.g., additional images or icons, but didn’t want them to make my board look “messy”.Here is an example in action: Tip: The default board/frame HEX colour is #F2F2F2 - add this to your colour swatch Related linksAbout Greg’s presentation → https://go.miro.com/gamification-with-miro Watch it here → https://youtu.be/AujO

Hi, Miro Community. I created a 1-hour video tutorial of (almost) all Miro features and functions. Each specific function is time stamped in the Youtube video description. The video covers with navigating, then left side menu functions, onto tips for sharing boards with others, and finally the bottom left menu’s presenting and facilitating options.  I hope it helps new users as well as experienced users who might see something they’ve never used. The video is public and sharing is welcome.www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJG2LUmyv2E&feature=youtu.be

Happy Monday crew! Thank you to all who could attend Friday’s session. It was wonderful to get to know you all a little better! Something that came up on Friday was discussing our favorite Icebreakers. We used this template (but with a World map view!) for our session but would love to hear your favorites below 👇 Also if you couldn’t attend Friday, we’d love to see where you are from and your classic picnic dish! Please drop in the link above. Have a great week!Michelle

Instead of these webinars, where it is strange to ask questions when you have set a tight plan. I would like to just go into Vimeo or Youtube and see how to do and get working. Or you could make interactive classes inside Miro as you do in the beginning.I would like to learn how to use Miro as a project planning tool. Inside a Scrum environment, or a Lean project framwork. I guess your projectleaders, developers already work with Scrum and Agile so it should be an easy one to teach newbees.Also weekly meetings and calendar integration would be nice to know more about, to get right into the best way to work with Miro and make it a productive tool that can help gaining profit and make the buisness thrive… 

Hey, fellow product managers! How many feature requests do you have in your backlog? And how many of them will you actually implement? Does the user ever hear back again about their idea? Oof, customer requests... Tricky they are! Like you, we at Miro love our customers, and they love us back: we get lots of great feedback and tons of amazing, elaborate feature ideas. There are several channels that we are tracking: NPS survey feedback, support tickets, shoutouts on social networks, regular feedback review meetings with customer success and support agents. But while we certainly want to deliver as much value as possible, it may be challenging to manage customers’ expectations when it comes to these requests. So how do you go about it? Please share with us your tried and tested ways to track and follow-up on customer requests to guarantee the best user experience. Or, take part in this short poll, and leave your own option in the comments!
