PowerPoint 2013: when Date, Slide Number or Footer don’t show – via: Academic Technology @ Palomar College

Coming from an Office pre 2000 background, I’m still amazed at how will things are hidden in modern Office versions.
Take the page numbers not showing on slides – Microsoft Community.
I bumped into that recently as well on a new blank presentation:
You see the placeholders at design time, but they don’t show up at presentation time.
The obvious action for me: Right click on each to see if there is anything about special formatting or hiding. It doesn’t work.
What does work is to:
- Go to the top of the Slide Masters
- Click the Ribbon
- Choose Insert
- Choose Text
- Choose Header & Footer
- Put a check marks for the place holders you want to be visible
