Hi, Are you using the embed as described in the link Scott provided? If the embed is showing up as just a link, it may be because the permissions for the document do not allow for public viewing. Make sure the drive document is available to the public and see if that changes anything for you.

Mike, just confirming... In the "Publish to the web" window there are 2 options: Link and Embed. Do not use the Embed option. Under Link you will click the "Publish" button (if not already clicked) and the link URL appears. Use this to embed in the forum post using the embed > Google Drive.

Scott Where is this "publish to the web"? In powerpoint or google drive? I published it from powerpoint to google drive already. Where do I go from google drive? I see share and the chain icon which one? By the way it is on share with anyone when I copy the link and embed on my post (with google drive) it disappears.

Mike, just to be clear, you can only embed a Google Drive document in a post. For a slide presentation, this means "Google Slides" (not a Microsoft Powerpoint). The instructions I linked above ( How to Use the Google Drive™ Embed) are very clear and walk you through the process step by step. Please re-read, and let me know if you have any questions.

Mike - While in the Google Slide document you wish to embed, go to File > Publish to the web.
- In the Link tab, click the Publish button.
- When the document is published, copy the link the page provides.
- On your forum in the WYSIWYG post editor, click on the embed icon
- Then click on the Google Drive icon
- Paste the link copied from Step 3.
- Click the Embed button
- Save post
