In fact, it is not very easy to number slides in PowerPoint &#8211; if you want to do it nicely. In this article, you will learn how to number slides in PowerPoint in two different ways. I will also teach you how to change the format and position of your page numbers in the Slide Master.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>There are two different ways to number slides in PowerPoint, which I think\nare worth mentioning. They are very similar, but one of the ways opens up for a\nlittle more creativity. Below you will see the two methods you will learn in\nthis article. <\/strong><strong>If you read to the end, I will also\noffer you a bonus tip and some workarounds if your slide numbers are not\nshowing (which is a common issue).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong> Using Header &amp; Footers Feature<\/strong><\/li><li> <strong>Using the Slide Number Feature<\/strong> <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The two above methods\nare the absolute best, in my opinion, and we will now go through these\nstep-by-step. If you think something is unclear in this PowerPoint tutorial,\nfeel free to contact me, and we will fix it together. It is for you that I run this blog. But now, on to\nthe instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Using Header &amp; Footers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a method you will recognize\nif you have worked extensively in Microsoft Word. It is actually the absolute most\nstraightforward and fastest method to number slides in PowerPoint. It is a\nsimple method that is perfect for those who are new to PowerPoint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Worth mentioning, &#8220;Header &amp; Footer&#8221; is what the tool in PowerPoint is called, but you can&#8217;t actually use Headers in PowerPoint. Probably this is something that has happened from Word. In this example, I will use a presentation that I made to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.petfacts.co\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">site that posts videos and articles about pets<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"CUTENESS OVERLOAD!

Now you have numbered your pages,\nand if you scroll through your slides, you will see that all slides are numbered.\nIf you do not think it became very good looking, you can choose to edit fonts\nand colors. In this case, I would like the numbers to be white, and maybe a\nlittle bit bigger. Let&#8217;s fix it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"309\" src=\"https:\/\/yourslidebuddy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/03-1024x309.png\" alt=\"How to Number Slides in PowerPoint \" class=\"wp-image-175\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.yourslidebuddy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/03-1024x309.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.yourslidebuddy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/03-300x91.png 300w, https:\/\/www.yourslidebuddy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/03-768x232.png 768w, https:\/\/www.yourslidebuddy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/03-1080x326.png 1080w, https:\/\/www.yourslidebuddy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/03.png 1083w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3.

Now you have <a href=\"https:\/\/yourslidebuddy.com\/how-to-learn-the-basics-of-powerpoint\/\" class=\"wpil_internal_link\" style=\"width: auto !important\" data-wpil-post-to-id=\"\">learned how to number slides in PowerPoint<\/a> and also learned how to format page numbers in Slide Master. Aside from our little sidetrack in Slide Master, this is a straightforward method that is very well suited for beginners. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next method is very similar to this method, but we will not use Headers &amp; Footers, which will allow us to change the placement of our page numbers as well, in Slide Master. The next method is a bit more advanced and will enable you to place the page number in other positions than down in the right corner, which is the default.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Using the Slide Number Feature<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The second method of\nhow to number slides in PowerPoint is slightly more complicated than the first\nmethod but allows you to be more creative regarding placement. In the example\nwith the pets presentation, I used in the first method; I would like to add a\nwatermark in the bottom right corner. It will not be a good idea to have page\nnumbering there &#8211; instead I will place it up in the right corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. Navigate to the Insert tab, and a bit to the right you will find the Slide Number, click on it<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Basically the same dialog box that appears in the first method. Tick \u200b\u200bthe Slide number and click Apply to all.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you will notice that it looks\nexactly the same as when you used the first method. If you have not tested the\nfirst method, you will see that your page numbering is positioned far down in\nthe right corner. To change the position of the page numbering as well as other\nformats, follow the following steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Navigate to View and click on Slide Master. For some, this may be a new feature, and it must be considered relatively advanced. I will not go into this feature in more depth, as this article is about how to number slides in PowerPoint, as I mentioned in the previous method.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Scroll up to the first slide you see and click on it, this slide is called &#8220;Parent Slide.&#8221; The changes you make here will affect all underlying slides.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5. Then navigate to the bottom right corner, to the box where you see this symbol &lt;#&gt;. It represents page numbering.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>6. This box behaves just like a regular text box, so you can move around it and format the content to suit your purpose. I will give my page numbers a white tone and place these up in the right corner.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you have learned one more method of how to number slides in PowerPoint, and got some repetition of the features in Slide Master. This method is just slightly more advanced than the previous method but gives you a little more flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from our little\nsidetrack in Slide Master, this is a straightforward method that is very well\nsuited for beginners. Outstanding job again! Now, let\u2019s move on to the bonus\nsections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><strong>You May Also Like: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/yourslidebuddy.com\/how-to-use-powerpoint-correctly\/\"><strong>How To Use PowerPoint Correctly<\/strong><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Bonus: How to Remove All Your Slide Numbers &#8211; Efficiently\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have tested any of the above\nmethods of how to number slides in PowerPoint, you probably have a nicely\nnumbered presentation. If\nyou for some reason you would like to delete the numbering, there are a couple\nof different approaches. As you may have noticed, your page numbers are\nclickable and are just plain text boxes that have got some extra superpowers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, you may\nfeel tempted just to delete these, just as you remove plain text boxes. Don&#8217;t do this! It may feel like an easy way to remove your page\nnumbering, but it can cause problems. The most obvious thing is that you forget\nto delete numbers on some pages, or it may be system conflicts in PowerPoint if\nyou decide to add page numbering again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead, navigate to Header &amp;\nFooters or Slide Number, depending on which method you prefer. Then click on\nthe icon so that the dialog box appears. Now uncheck Slide number, and click Apply to\nall, just as you did when adding page numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have many slides, this will\nsave you a lot of time. If\nwe allow ourselves to be really elitist, then this is the right way to do it.\nSo, there was a little bonus tip that will save you a lot of time and trouble\nif you work a lot in PowerPoint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>PowerPoint Slide Number not Showing?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have experimented a bit with\nSlide Master or removed or added page numbers yourself, your page numbers may\nnot be displayed correctly. It is not an uncommon problem. I will now guide you\nthrough a troubleshooting process that will hopefully solve your problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Solution 1: Remove the numbering and add it again<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>You know when you call\nIT support for help with your computer, and the first thing they ask you\n(besides making sure the cord is connected to the machine) is to restart the\ncomputer? It is the same method, though for PowerPoint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, save your\npresentation, then open it up again. Do you see the page numbering now? If not, test the next solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Solution 2: Remove the numbering and add it again<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The heading says it\nall. Enter either Header &amp;\nFooters or Slide Number. Click\non the icon to bring up the dialog box where you can make your selections. Then\ncheck Slide number and click Apply to all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p> <strong>You May Aslo Like:  <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/yourslidebuddy.com\/7-tips-of-how-to-make-an-effective-powerpoint-presentation\/\"><strong>7 Tips of How to Make an Effective PowerPoint Presentation <\/strong><\/a> <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you should not see\nany page numbers; both you and PowerPoint can agree with it.

In this troubleshooting\nmethod, I ask you to test both of these methods if you have not already done\nso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. Navigate to Insert, click on Header &amp; Footers, check Slide numbers, click Apply to all.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1.

Now you should\nbe able to see your page numbers, but if you don&#8217;t, I have another ace in the\nrock sleeve. Take a look at the next solution proposal, and it will surely\nsolve your problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Solution 4: Just Create a New Slide Deck<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the last\nresort I see it (besides starting to go and mess with Master Slides), and if it\ndoesn&#8217;t solve your problem, I will personally solve it for you. Contact me, send your slides, and I&#8217;ll fix it &#8211; I\npromise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This method involves\ncreating a brand new PowerPoint presentation and just copying your slides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. Go to File, New, Blank Presentation.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Go back to your old presentation where the PowerPoint slide number is not showing.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3.
