Is it possible to have more than one team at a university?

Hi, I’m interested in applying for an educational plan for my project team at our university here in Germany. Is there a limit to the number of teams per university, or can various teams sign up for different educational plans? We are trying to figure out if we should set up one team for our whole department or separate ones for each project team. Thanks!!

Where can I find a board that was shared by others in my dashboard?

There’s a board that was shared by others which I refer to a lot, but I find myself looking for the link all the time. Is there a way that I can put it in my dashboard permanently or do I have to upgrade my plan for it?

It is possible to have dynamic copies of elements in a Miro Board?

Hi all, I may be over-stretching the capability of Miro here but here goes….. Is it possible to have dynamic copies of elements in Miro? I don’t know if that’s the correct terminology, but what I mean is a ‘mirror’ or ‘ghost’ copy of something. One where, if the original element is changed, then the dynamic copy also updates/changes. For example, I might update a cell in a table with a new word or number. let’s say I have a copy of that same table elsewhere on the Miro board, is it possible to make the information in that other table uautomatically update to reflect the information in the original table? I have a similar question for post-it notes and non-written things too. Say for example moving shapes around the board. ThanksJustin

Update Miro onboarding videos to show correct board control locations

This is a critical issue.As a facilitator / consultant I need to give new Miro users a quick guide to the tool. The onboarding videos were good until the UI was changed.The location of settings and a few other controls has changed.Now these videos are unusable. They should be updated as soon as possible.This probably has cost you some sales.

What are some UX misconceptions you have heard or been told?

I remember when first starting out in UX design, someone had told me that it was just a title and I’d be doing BA (Business Analyst) work. While there are similarities, they are both different roles as the name suggests.  What are some of yours? I’m sure there must be many and some interesting ones to!

Can I save a Miro board to a Google Shared Drive?

When I save a Miro board to Google Drive it saves to my personal Google Drive.  I want to save it to a Shared Drive.  Is this possible? I moved the file that Miro saved to my drive manually to the shared drive but that seems to sever the connection with the Miro board.  It can’t open the Miro board after the move to the shared drive.

Export edited PDF for participants

I have over 100 frames but want to print off a final PDF for the participants that capture their core workings. (not all the frames with instructions etc). At the moment Miro tech have told me there are no feasible workarounds. (other than duplicating the board and deleting frames). Surely there is a way to print a PDF to PDF to only end up with the pages i want to share????

Setting board members to anonymous

Hello everyone, Is it possible to set board members to anonymous so they can't see who is writing what?For example, is it possible to anonymize participants during a workshop so that no one can see their names (e.g., for a private brainstorming session)?Thanks you!

HELP! No matter what I do, I can't get text into a sticky note!

I am like 10 minutes new to Miro, so I apologize if this is a supremely stupid question. But I set up my Board, and typed my first heading in my first note by double clicking on it and typing. This is not working for the second note. Nothing is working on the second note. When I select it the four dots appear, it has a blue square around it, but that is it. For the life of me I cannot get a cursor to add text to the note.I’ve locked the board, I’ve clicked the T, I’m sure I am on select mode. Thank you in advance!!

Team member - adding project on a separate board

Hi!I’ve added as full member a collaborator to my board-project. I sent him an invitation to join the board which is what he did. Now, he’d like to use miro for separate projects. When he signs in, he only has access to our shared board project and can’t create other projects independently. So what shall he do in order to create other projects under his own profile page? Thanks.

Set if new items are pasted in front or in background

I am currently struggling with a Team activity in which I plan to let participants drag and drop items to score points or give minus points. I have locked everything which should not be moved → No issues thereThe point items need to be moveable for the game to work → issue there is that i did not find a way to prevent participants from copying the items.  I checked the forum and did not find any way to prevent copying, but is there maybe a way to define that new objects are not pasted in the foreground but added automatically in the background? This way the “game field” would cover all new created items during the game…..Did anyone maybe solve a similar issue? I have a manual approach of moving an existing item over the gamefield to remove all front layer objects, but this more or less kills the gameplay.

Guest Licensing

Hi all -I’m trying to evaluate Miro and it’s suitability for our organisation, particularly around pricing. The majority of users in our company would just need to see and interact with specific boards in a basic way and the access they’d have via the new ‘guests’ functionality would be suitable. Given they do belong to the same organisation as us does the licensing prohibit us from doing the following:Purchase consulting plan for those members who need full access Through the consulting plan invite members of our own company as guests on specific boards?Thanks Calvin

How to invite people who have finished the trial as guests

I have a team plan. I want to add as a guest, but I was mistakenly registered as a member. The person became a full license after the trial period ended. So I tried to remove the person from the members and invite them again as a guest, but it became a full license.How can I invite as a guest?

Name for Visitors

When sharing a link, I would like visitors (not guests) to be able to display their names during participation.  Working with large Executive groups for one day does not warrant trying to get everyone to sign up for Miro and figure all that out.   The solutions I have seen on here so far are all for guests, whom have a guest login.  Other whiteboards in the industry do a great job of this by prompting visitors when they arrive to add their name.

Best practice for Tracking / Marking changes

We use Miro to map out user journeys and as the projects evolve copy or flows may change and these changes need to be clearly marked on the board to communicate with others. How do other teams manage this issue?

Unable to to delete or move boards in free tier account

Hey all, I'd like to delete and move boards from a 'free' tier team to our subscription tier team. But the options seem to have disappeared from the board menu. Specifically: 'Move to account' and 'Delete'. They are present in the paid tier account. Does anyone know how I can move or delete these boards from the free tier team?
