Why do links to duplicated boards get crossed?

I created a board, then duplicated it. I changed the name on the duplicated board. Both boards were to be used in separate Zoom meetings as public boards. When we were in the first meeting, I gave the link to 1 board. Half the participants ended up in the wrong board, even though I never gave them that link, nor did anyone else in the meeting/on the board have the other link. I did have both boards public at the time because there was going to be a time overlap between the Zoom sessions and I wanted to make sure that there would be a smooth transition.This is now the second time this has occurred. The first time, we copied the board 4 times for 4 classes that were occurring on Zoom at the same time. Students ended up on each others’ boards. We assumed it was user error. But since it continues to occur, we think it must be an issue with Miro.All the links appear different when we paste them into a document, but they still cross somehow. Any ideas?

Widget top and bottom bounds attribute inverted?

Hi, I was doing some widget plotting and detection earlier and found that widgets seem to have “reversed” values in their y-axis top and bottom bounds property. For example a fresh widget which I created with miro shape creator had these bounds:This might just be a result of different plotting technique or something but from what I know bottom y axis point should always be smaller than the top y axis point. Is this “inverted” on purpose? If yes what is the idea behind this? Also I have not made any tranformations / translations on the board or widgets. And what really bugged me is that the x-axis left and right points are plotted normally (left is on the left and right is on the right) unlike the y-axis points. From which arises another question is this actually plotted on the board in reverse or are the values just passed to the wrong attribute inside the widget data?

Web plugins - similar to Looking glass?

Hello, Does anybody know of any plugin in the market similar to the plugin named Looking Glass in this guide? https://developers.miro.com/docs/web-plugin-examples#looking-glass I find it to be useful, but I figured out maybe somoeone in the community already built it from the API example and can share the finished plugin with me. Saves me a lot of time of learning how to do it myself. Thank you,Omar

Frage zu Miro presentation mode

Moin Zusammen,ich bin noch relativ neu bei Miro und habe dazu eine Frage: Ich nutze Miro zur Personaleinteilung anhand von Bildern. Das Board bzw. die Frames lasse ich über den presentation mode als Vollbild auf einem TV anzeigen. Aber jedesmal, wenn der PC, der am TV hängt, ein Problem mit dem Internet hat, beendet sich der presentation mode automatisch. Gibt es eine Möglichkeit Dies zu verhindern? Vielen Dank für eure HilfeLieben GrußSebastian

I was charged for seat after plan cancellation

Hi!Today I cancelled the consultant plan. There was one team member in my team that I wasn’t aware of. After plan cancellation I was charged additional $9 for the seat [sic!!!] I cancelled the subscription because I didn’t want to pay anymore :) Moreover, my plan is still valid for 5 more days. It does not make much sense for me. When you cancel subscription you are not able to edit some of your boards. I would expect that any team members would be just removed / lose access to the boards using the similar logic. I don’t really understand why I was charged

Automating content updates between boards

Hello everyone,I am currently working between two Miro boards and looking to update an image automatically from one board to another. Here is my situation: I have one board (let’s call it board A) dedicated to a user flow showcasing screenshots of the web design by iteration. I update this board on a regular basis. My board B provides an overview of all projects I am working on and need to contain the most up to date screens from board A. My goal is to find a way to connect images from board A to board B and have them automatically update anytime I update/replace my images in board A.Does anyone know if this is possible? Thanks!

Can Miro Kanban & Microsoft Planner be linked together?

Hi all,Can we have our To-Do’s from a Miro Kanban appear in Teams automatically? e.g. by Linking the Miro Kanban with an identical Planner setup in Teams? We just really love having all our to-do’s in one place, so any tips on how to do that when using Teams and Miro are very very welcome :-)  Thanks for any input!

Reset board after use

Hi,I have seen this idea: https://community.miro.com/wish-list-32/reset-a-board-a-specified-state-821I guess that is similar to what I’m asking for. Maybe I’m wrong or don’t see the difference between templates and miroverse. But a miroverse board I can view without being logged in to Miro. And that board will be a copy on my dashboard if I would like to use it. But is it possible to sett the restrictions so that anyone with a password can edit a Miroverse/ template without logging in as a user. But don’t mess with the original template? I’m not sure if I explain myself well but I know the copy/paste alternative of duplicating a template for a future workshop, but I would like to have a board that “anyone” can access and play around with but not messing up the original setup. So part of my board could be a “preview” of another template that you can drag and drop thing into be after you close it will show the default view of the template.If it would be possible to reset it once every da

Rest API: Send to Back/Bring to Front

Is there a way to change the layering of widgets on a board via the rest api?I get inconsistent layering, i think due to race conditions sending create widget requests. From what i can tell the more recently added widgets always end up on top, but i  can’t find a way to add a widget behind ones that already appear on the board.I assume i’m missing something? Thanks for the helpMokes

Miro with IPad Pro (first generation 2015) sketching - slow, delayed, lagging. How’s the performance on new IPad Pros?

I’m using a 5 yr old IPad Pro as my sketching tool in Miro.This is all I use my IPad for, however I’m noticing that sketching often starts lagging on Miro, which is leading me to think about upgrading to a newer model.Does anyone notice performance issues on the new IPads with Miro?

Share a board with individual members - not collaboratively

Hi everyone….I have been using the AWW app (recently acquired by Miro) for a while now in my Science classes to encourage collaboration and participation. It has an option which allows me to share a template board with each of my students so that they work on their own individual board (no collaboration). AWW calls this an “assignment”. I can then go and open each of my students boards to see their progress. Is there a similar facility in Miro?Thanks-a-mil for your assistance with this!Kind regards,Mike

Changing board ownership

Hello,I am a teacher and have a free account. I use miro in my class and have students set up whiteboards as part of a team project. I am preparing for a new class and would like to clean up my account. I’d like to keep many of the boards as examples and delete the others. Many boards are empty and I think they were set up by mistake, these are all called “My First Board.” I’d like to delete these to make room for new ones. I am the owner of the account but the students are the owners of the boards, including these empty ones. How can I delete these boards? Thank you for your help!

Display suddenly shows everything (but the board content) in large style

Hello there,I’m new to the community :) I hope you can help me with my problem. After inserting a kanban template to my board, everything suddenly appears in huge size: toolbars, title etc. Its not a computer issue, as every other tab and window is still in normal size, just the miro environment suddenly shows everything in large. Does anybody know how to change the settings? Thanks in advance! Lisa

Random images/post-it

Do you know if there is a plug in (or other mode) in Miro to randomly show an image (or other object in Miro)? It would like randomly shown an image (chosen at random from a predetermined group) in a specific place in the Miro Board (always the same position) or linking, always randomly, to one of the images/objects placed on the board. Thanks!
