[@wendycervera1637]

Can you show what happens when you open a whole other PowerPoint presentation and try and copy that into this template you created? I have clients who think that it would be seamless and that the pasted slides would automatically take on the attributes of the new template. I cannot get this to work! Can you show us?!

[@crckathu191]

HI great Video
I would like to know if it is possible to paste a template on an existing powerpoint?

[@2001BornAgain]

I'm only a couple of minutes in and my master slide only changed the first one when I clicked on "Picture or texture fill." You said everything I do in the Master Slide will affect all the other slides, but apparently that's not the case. I have to click "Apply to All" in order for the others to have the picture inserted as the background. Is PowerPoint 2021 (the one I own, and not the 365 version) different?

[@janmicohbayot3731]

Hi! Very helpful so far. I'm just stuck on the part where I use the template that i made. The text boxes aren't showing/i cant edit the text. It seems like the whole slide became a background that I cant edit. Any solutions? Thanks!

[@SlideLizard]

Hello Jan,
this happens when you don't use the special PowerPoint placeholder in your template. All text you want to be editable afterwards needs to be such a placeholder. You can insert a placeholder by going to the "Slide Master" tab and then click on "Insert placeholder".

[@ExcellentSlides]

Hi! I bought some PowerPoint Templates, but all of them are saved as .pptx file. Is it bad? Should I always save my Templates as .potx?

[@SlideLizard]

Hi! It's not that important. The difference is, that if you open a .potx file, PowerPoint copies the content into a new presentation file. If you save it, you don't override the template file by accident. If the template is a .pptx file, you will override the template if you don't explicitly create a new file by choosing 'Save as' in the menu.
However, you can easily save .pptx files as real templates by selecting .potx in the file type of the save menu.

[@sixtusmomomo6470]

Please Mam which site did you use to download most of your pictures

[@ajitseal1144]

[@marciapatriceganeles-kisli4373]

[@alejandradz174]
