How do I publicly share a board / template so that people can copy (but not edit) it?

Hello, I have created a board with a number of canvases which I want to share with a public wider community so that they can use this board as starting point (template if you like).   I want them to be able to use it as template, i.e. copy it and make it their own, but not modify it. What is the best way of doing this?  What plan do I need to be on for this?   Thanks so much m

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!

"Syncing... Please wait" message

Hi, I’m making lecture videos using Miro and Zoom’s local recording function. It worked very well, and I love this combination. But from yesterday (28 April), I’ve been experiencing a "Syncing... Please wait \\ Receiving a response from the server. We recommend that you wait ** sec to avoid data loss." panel repeatedly appearing on the Miro app. I tried the web-browser app, another net connection, different time slots (morning, daytime, evening, midnight). What does this message mean? Is this a server-side problem, or some performance issue in my environment? is there any way to avoid it? Miro 0.3.32 on MacOS 10.12.6, iMac late 2012 Core i7, 32GB memory

Is there a way to incorporate spreadsheet into miro?

I want to use miro as a very simple “Matlab simulink -type “ application  where I can sketch up simple flow chart and attach some simple math formula to it. Is there a way to do this?

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?

How to get drag and drop event to get coordinates

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!

Is there a way to make links stay relative to different items when pasting in to a new board?

I hold the same workshop to multiple clients, and for this workshop I’ve developed sort of a master version board. For each client I then hold the workshop for, I copy paste the relevant frames and items I wish to include into a new board which I have added to that account and project.  The problem is that when I do this, all links that I had created are still pointing to the master version board, and not the frames in the new board. As I may want to have 10 or maybe even 100 links in one of these master version board, it makes it impossible to use links because of this.  A nice feature would be to make the links stay intact within each board. As far as I understand it, the links are today built up by /boardID/widgetID. So I guess what I would like is that if I paste a set of 20 frames into a new board, containing 100 links, the link would replace the /boardID/ part of all links and append the new board’s ID instead into all links. Is there a way to do this already?

How do I turn off change highlights?

Hi there, New to Miro. I’ve created a board that I want to share in a training course tomorrow. I’ve prebuilt all my content. When I share the board, it shows everything highlighted as updated by me. The issue I have is that this is the first time people are seeing it, so they don’t need to see what’s changed. Is there a way I can turn this “feature” off? S

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?

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 !

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...
