Hiding Slides within Songs

Presenter Question
Pastor wants to use only verse 2 of 4 within a Song. When I hide rather than delete verse 1, the Title slide hides as well. When advancing from the previous slide and go into the Song with verse 1 hidden, it advances to verse 2 and never shows the Title slide on the audience screen. I can with my mouse click directly on the Title slide even though it went hidden and does project to the audience screen. What am I missing?

For starters, are you using the 2025 (legacy) version or the 2026 (new) version? If 2026, what exact version? And is the computer you're using Windows, Mac, or Linux?

I'm puzzled at what you mean by "hiding" a song slide. While announcement slides can be hidden, I don't find that term used about song slides. In both versions, you can make an alternate verse order. In the legacy version, you can make changes to the verse order just for that occurrence of the song. It appears that you can do something similar in the new version, though it is done differently.

I'm sorry, but to truly help you we need more information about what you're trying to do. And I don't have much experience with the new version, so I can't help much with it. You might want to see https://www.worshiptools.com/en-us/docs/211-song-order if that's what you're using.

When I was checking the latest 2026 update, I found where you can "hide" song slides. This feature is new with 2026, and it might still have problems. A better way to change what slides are shown is to use method #3 on the page I linked to. Be sure to choose the "verse 2 only" order when that's what you want to do. In my experiments, this new order was available in other services, too.
