How to Skip a Slide in Google Slides
- Jul 16

We reuse presentations for training all the time, but sometimes certain slides aren't relevant to the session, or a client has asked us to run it as a bite-sized session.
Instead of deleting slides or creating multiple similar slide decks, we use the skip slide option. It lets you hide slides during a presentation, but you can retrieve them later!
Step 1 - Open your Google Slides presentation
Step 2 - Right-click on the thumbnail of the slide you would like to skip and select the eye icon 'Skip slide'.

You will know it has worked as the slide will show the eye icon with a line through it. You can unskip the slide using the same method.

You can also use the Slide menu from the top toolbar to do this.
