Adding Powerpoint To Our Eportfolio

PowerPoint
There are a number of ways you can embed your Powerpoint presentations into your blog post. This way uses tools that are part of the Eportal system. After you have mastered this why not try it a different way.
Get a slideshare account and upload your presentation to slideshare then embed the slideshare into your blog.
Get a sliderocket account and upload your presentation to sliderocket then embed the presentation into your blog.

Find your powerpoint file and drag and drop it to the area shown above. Click in the box to the left of “Convert documents, presentations, spread sheets, and drawings to the corresponding Google Doc formats”. We have had some trouble with pptx files so you might want to save your powerpoint in an earlier format.

Privacy

Select the size of the presentation you wish to embed in your blog. I have found the large size to big for most themes. You may need to experiment with your theme to find the best size. Copy the code in the box and go to the dashboard of your blog and create a new post.

Add the Presentation to Your Blog

Go to your blog and create a new post add a title and a brief description of what the presentation is about. Click on the html tab and paste your content into the blog post. Add the appropriate tags and categories then publish your blog. If you do not see the Google Presentation embedded in your blog you may need to add the plugin unfilteredmu.
