Ubah presentasi PowerPoint menjadi kursus e-learning

SlideForge adalah add-in PowerPoint. Buka deck yang sudah Anda punya, tambahkan kuis bernilai, lalu terbitkan sebagai paket SCORM, xAPI, atau cmi5 yang langsung jalan di Moodle dan LMS lain — nilai mahasiswa masuk ke gradebook.

Versi pratinjau. SlideForge belum pernah diuji pada LMS sungguhan maupun di dalam PowerPoint pada mesin lain. Silakan coba pada deck salinan, bukan pada materi yang sedang dipakai mengajar.

Unduh

Installer Windows (.zip) Manifest (.xml)

Cara memasang

PowerPoint di Windows

Windows 11 mungkin memblokir installer yang diunduh. Smart App Control menolak berkas skrip dari internet dan tidak menyediakan tombol “jalankan saja”. Cara A menghindari itu sepenuhnya: tidak ada berkas yang diunduh lalu dijalankan.

Langkah 1 — daftarkan add-in

Buka Windows PowerShell (tekan Windows, ketik “PowerShell”). Tidak perlu Run as administrator. Salin blok di bawah, tempel, tekan Enter.

$dir = "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\SlideForge"
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path $dir | Out-Null
Invoke-WebRequest -UseBasicParsing -Uri 'https://slideforge.komunitech.id/slideforge.manifest.xml' -OutFile "$dir\slideforge.manifest.xml"
$key = 'HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\WEF\Developer'
New-Item -Path $key -Force | Out-Null
New-ItemProperty -Path $key -Name '8f1f2f4c-6a6e-4a1e-9f52-0d9a1c2b3e40' -Value "$dir\slideforge.manifest.xml" -PropertyType String -Force | Out-Null

Perintah itu hanya melakukan dua hal, dan bisa Anda baca dulu: mengunduh satu berkas manifest ke profil Anda, lalu menambahkan satu entri registry supaya Office tahu letaknya.

Langkah 2 — sisipkan sekali di PowerPoint

Add-in yang didaftarkan seperti ini tidak langsung muncul sebagai tab ribbon. Anda harus menyisipkannya sekali lebih dulu.

Tutup PowerPoint sepenuhnya, lalu buka lagi.
Buka tab Home.
Klik tombol Add-ins.
Klik More Add-ins.
Pilih tab MY ADD-INS.
Cari bagian Developer Add-ins → SlideForge → Add.

Setelah itu tab SlideForge muncul di ribbon, dan tetap ada untuk seterusnya.

Cara B — installer .zip

Hanya jika Smart App Control mati di komputer Anda.

Unduh Installer Windows (.zip) di atas.
Klik kanan zip → Properties → centang Unblock → OK. Langkah ini paling sering terlewat.
Klik kanan → Extract All, lalu klik dua kali Install-SlideForge.cmd.
Lanjutkan ke Langkah 2 di atas.

Menghapus

Remove-ItemProperty -Path 'HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\WEF\Developer' -Name '8f1f2f4c-6a6e-4a1e-9f52-0d9a1c2b3e40' -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Remove-Item "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\SlideForge" -Recurse -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

PowerPoint di Mac

Unduh Manifest (.xml) di atas.
Buka Terminal dan jalankan:

mkdir -p ~/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Powerpoint/Data/Documents/wef
cp ~/Downloads/slideforge.manifest.xml \
   ~/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Powerpoint/Data/Documents/wef/

Tutup PowerPoint sepenuhnya, lalu buka lagi.
Menu Insert → My Add-ins → Developer Add-ins → SlideForge. Tab ribbon baru muncul setelah disisipkan sekali.

PowerPoint di web — paling cepat dicoba

Unduh Manifest (.xml) di atas.
Buka presentasi di powerpoint.office.com.
Home → Add-ins → More Add-ins → tab MY ADD-INS → Upload My Add-in.
Pilih berkas slideforge.manifest.xml.

Tidak perlu memasang apa pun di komputer. Unggahan hanya bertahan satu sesi, jadi harus diulang setelah halaman dimuat ulang — cocok untuk mencoba, kurang cocok untuk pemakaian sehari-hari.

Membaca deck di PowerPoint web memakan waktu 10–40 detik untuk file besar. Itu batas dari Office, bukan dari SlideForge. Di desktop jauh lebih cepat.

Cara memakai

Buka presentasi, lalu klik tab SlideForge.
Tekan Baca presentasi. Statistik deck dan daftar slide akan muncul.
Pilih slide, buka tab Kuis, lalu tambahkan soal.
Buka tab Terbitkan, pilih format (mis. SCORM 1.2), tekan Terbitkan.
Unggah berkas .zip hasilnya ke Moodle sebagai aktivitas SCORM.

Tipe soal yang tersedia

Pilihan ganda, pilihan ganda jawaban banyak, benar/salah, isian singkat, angka, dan menjodohkan — semuanya dinilai dan dilaporkan per soal ke LMS.

Format terbitan

Format	Untuk apa
SCORM 1.2	Paling luas didukung. Pilih ini jika ragu.
SCORM 2004	Bila LMS Anda membedakan "selesai" dan "lulus".
xAPI / cmi5	Bila memakai LRS.
HTML5	Tanpa LMS. Taruh di web, atau buka langsung dari flashdisk.

Privasi. Deck Anda tidak pernah dikirim ke mana pun. Seluruh proses — membaca file, menyusun kuis, membuat paket SCORM — berjalan di dalam PowerPoint pada komputer Anda sendiri.

Kalau tidak berhasil

Gejala	Penyebab & solusi
Tab SlideForge tidak muncul	Add-in belum disisipkan. Home → Add-ins → More Add-ins → MY ADD-INS → Developer Add-ins → SlideForge. Kalau tidak ada di daftar, tutup PowerPoint lewat Task Manager lalu buka lagi.
Tab muncul, panel kosong	Panel dimuat dari server ini. Coba buka /taskpane/ di browser — kalau gagal di sini juga, servernya yang bermasalah.
Muncul dialog "Add-in error"	Manifest ditolak. Jalankan `Install-SlideForge.ps1` lewat PowerShell untuk melihat pesannya.

Turn PowerPoint decks into e-learning courses

SlideForge is a PowerPoint add-in. Open a deck you already have, add a graded quiz, and publish it as a SCORM, xAPI or cmi5 package that runs in Moodle and any other LMS — with scores landing in the gradebook.

Preview release. SlideForge has not yet been tested against a real LMS, or inside PowerPoint on another machine. Try it on a copy of a deck, not on material you are about to teach from.

Download

Windows installer (.zip) Manifest (.xml)

Installing

PowerPoint on Windows

Windows 11 may block a downloaded installer. Smart App Control refuses script files that came from the internet and offers no “run anyway” button. Method A sidesteps that entirely: nothing is downloaded and executed.

Step 1 — register the add-in

Open Windows PowerShell (press Windows, type “PowerShell”). Administrator rights are not needed. Copy the block below, paste it, press Enter.

$dir = "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\SlideForge"
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path $dir | Out-Null
Invoke-WebRequest -UseBasicParsing -Uri 'https://slideforge.komunitech.id/slideforge.manifest.xml' -OutFile "$dir\slideforge.manifest.xml"
$key = 'HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\WEF\Developer'
New-Item -Path $key -Force | Out-Null
New-ItemProperty -Path $key -Name '8f1f2f4c-6a6e-4a1e-9f52-0d9a1c2b3e40' -Value "$dir\slideforge.manifest.xml" -PropertyType String -Force | Out-Null

It does two things, and you can read it first: downloads one manifest file into your own profile, and adds one registry entry so Office knows where it is.

Step 2 — insert it once in PowerPoint

An add-in registered this way does not appear as a ribbon tab on its own. You have to insert it once first.

Close PowerPoint completely, then reopen it.
Go to the Home tab.
Click the Add-ins button.
Click More Add-ins.
Choose the MY ADD-INS tab.
Find the Developer Add-ins section → SlideForge → Add.

The SlideForge tab then appears on the ribbon, and stays there from then on.

Method B — the .zip installer

Only if Smart App Control is off on your machine.

Download the Windows installer (.zip) above.
Right-click the zip → Properties → tick Unblock → OK. This is the step people miss.
Right-click → Extract All, then double-click Install-SlideForge.cmd.
Continue with Step 2 above.

Removing it

Remove-ItemProperty -Path 'HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\WEF\Developer' -Name '8f1f2f4c-6a6e-4a1e-9f52-0d9a1c2b3e40' -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Remove-Item "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\SlideForge" -Recurse -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

PowerPoint on Mac

Download the Manifest (.xml) above.
Open Terminal and run:

mkdir -p ~/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Powerpoint/Data/Documents/wef
cp ~/Downloads/slideforge.manifest.xml \
   ~/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Powerpoint/Data/Documents/wef/

Close PowerPoint completely, then reopen it.
Insert → My Add-ins → Developer Add-ins → SlideForge. The ribbon tab appears only after inserting it once.

PowerPoint on the web — fastest way to try it

Download the Manifest (.xml) above.
Open a presentation at powerpoint.office.com.
Home → Add-ins → More Add-ins → MY ADD-INS tab → Upload My Add-in.
Choose slideforge.manifest.xml.

Nothing is installed on your computer. The upload lasts one session only, so it has to be repeated after a reload — good for trying it, less good for daily use.

Reading a deck in PowerPoint on the web takes 10–40 seconds for a large file. That is an Office limit, not a SlideForge one. Desktop is far faster.

Using it

Open a presentation and click the SlideForge tab.
Press Read presentation. Deck statistics and a slide list appear.
Pick a slide, open the Quiz tab, and add questions.
Open the Publish tab, choose a format (SCORM 1.2 if unsure), press Publish.
Upload the resulting .zip to Moodle as a SCORM activity.

Question types

Multiple choice, multiple response, true/false, fill in the blank, numeric and matching — all graded and reported per question to the LMS.

Publish formats

Format	When to use it
SCORM 1.2	The most widely supported. Pick this if unsure.
SCORM 2004	When your LMS distinguishes "completed" from "passed".
xAPI / cmi5	When you have an LRS.
HTML5	No LMS. Put it on a website, or open it from a memory stick.

Privacy. Your deck is never uploaded anywhere. Reading the file, building the quiz and producing the SCORM package all happen inside PowerPoint on your own machine.

If it does not work

Symptom	Cause & fix
No SlideForge tab	It has not been inserted yet. Home → Add-ins → More Add-ins → MY ADD-INS → Developer Add-ins → SlideForge. If it is not listed, close PowerPoint via Task Manager and reopen.
Tab appears, pane is blank	The pane loads from this server. Try /taskpane/ in a browser — if that fails here too, the server is the problem.
"Add-in error" dialog	The manifest was rejected. Run `Install-SlideForge.ps1` from PowerShell to see why.
