Just started BalenaDash for the first time (great instructions!) and successfully have a Raspberry Pi displaying a Google Slide presentation. However, the presentation failed to loop; once reach the last slide stays there. I have selected Restart the slideshow after the last slide but doesn’t seem to work.  
Any idea on what may be wrong?

Thanks in advance!

Hello, what `WPE_URL` are you using?

Hey @CYC, thanks for reaching out!

I am going to setup it again on my end to confirm that google didn’t change anything on that.  
If you open the slides on your browser, does it loop?

Hi there, I would try this with v0.2.0 of balenaDash as there have been some changes to the WPE component since then which _could_ affect this. If you go back to this version and it still doesn’t work it could be that something has changed with the app at Google’s end which prevents it from looping with the cut down browser that balenaDash uses.

I just push rev 0.2 as suggested, and did the trick. Now the presentation loops as expected.  
Thanks for your help.
