How to Add SlideShare to your Facebook Pages

May 29, 03:51 am PST

Important Update: Some users have expressed confusion on not being able to “upload a SlideShare presentation to a Facebook page”. Just to clarify, it’s not possible to directly upload to a Facebook page. To show your presentations on a page, you need to first add the SlideShare app to a regular Facebook user account and add your Facebook page to this account. After this you need to assign yourself as the administrator/owner of this page. Once this is done, presentations from your SlideShare app will show on your Facebook page and remain in sync.

One of our most requested features on the newly launched Facebook App was the ability to add it to Facebook Pages. We are glad to announce that it is now possible to do just that. Just follow the steps below:

1. Make sure you add the SlideShare app to your profile first. Then, goto the SlideShare application’s profile page and click on “more” to display more options. Choose “Add to my Page”

2. A popup will show you a list of pages you currently own or administer. Choose the page you want to add SlideShare to. For this example, we’ll choose “Rockstars Cafe”

3. Goto your Facebook page and click on “Edit Page” as shown.

4. Under the list of Applications available on the page, you’ll see “SlideShare”. Click on the small pen icon next to it and choose “Edit”

5. You’ll be taken to the Pages settings section, which allows you to specify the SlideShare user who’s presentations will sync to the presentations showing on the Page. If you did not install the SlideShare app as mentioned in (1), you’ll be prompted to do so. If an administrator is already set for this page, you’ll be given the option to change the account. Non-administrators will not be allowed to access this section.

6. Once this is done, return to your Page and you’ll see the SlideShare app under the Boxes tab on your page. You can move it to your Wall tab if you want.

Your Facebook Page will stay in sync with the chosen page administrator’s account. Do share your Facebook page URL’s with us after adding the SlideShare app.

    So the only way to put a slide show on a page is to have the same slideshow on your profile? Is there any way to put a slideshow on a page without having it on a profile?

    Does the slideshare slide ONLY work with published pages? I’m trying to get my page ready before publishing, with some slideshares, but I just cannot get the slide list to show up on the Wall. The slides show up in the Slideshare tab, but I can’t figure out how to add it to either the profile or the Wall from the slideshare tab :(

    I’m having some troubel with this too - I’m an admin for an organization Web site and I’m trying to link their SlideShare account to their page, but I don’t want it on my own, and I don’t want my name showing up as “Veronica’s SlideSpace” in their SlideShare tab.

    Also, I’m trying to get this set up before publishing the organization’s page. when I click on the SlideShare tab on the Page, it says nothing’s been uploaded yet. But when I click “Your Presentations” it takes me to apps.facebook.com/slideshre/slideshows and the presentation I uploaded via SlideShare today is visible. Do you have to upload presentations through Facebook to get them to show up? If so, that’s not clear in the application instructions.

    I must agree with Veronica - I manage 5 very different FB Pages for 5 very different sites & projects, so having 1 SlideShare account linked to *all* of them would never work (especially since I have set up different account profiles at SlideShare to keep their online personas distinct.) The process & utility of Slideshare for FB Pages is weak; perhaps now that you’ve got SlideShare for Business launched, you’ll re-visit your FB app and integrate it a bit better. Meanwhile, I can’t recommend that this be added to professional Pages - and that is quite unfortunate!
