- This is an amazing option where we can embed SlideBoom presentation directly into a website, blog, or even in PowerPoint presentation. SlideBoom provides two types of embed codes ie; HTML and XHTML. To do this just we need to copy the embed code and paste it. The Embed into WordPress option provides code that lets you add SlideBoom presentations to your WordPress blog. See Figure 8, below, where Embed codes are highlighted in red.
