I would like to set the option noframenumbering on the title page but I don't know how to set it...

I've tried this :

\maketitle[noframenumbering]

but it didn't worked

And this :

\setbeamertemplate{title page}[noframenumbering]{
    \inserttitle
}

but it didn't work either...

For information this is the normal use of the noframenumbering option :

\begin{frame}[noframenumbering] 
    content 
\end{frame}

beamer defines \maketitle as a shortcut for \titlepage which automatically adds a frame environment if necessary (cf. beamerbasetitle.sty, l. 21):

\def\maketitle{\ifbeamer@inframe\titlepage\else\frame{\titlepage}\fi}

So a title frame which isn't numbered can be produced by

\begin{frame}[plain,noframenumbering]
    \titlepage
\end{frame}

or

\begin{frame}[plain,noframenumbering] 
    \maketitle
\end{frame}

(You mentioned that your title slide should be a plain frame, so I added the corresponding option in addition to noframenumbering.)

If the footer in your title page is not necessary, you can add the following option to the frame:

\begin{frame}[plain]
\maketitle
\end{frame}

Be aware that this option hides the slide counting, but next slide will be numbered starting by 2.

  • My title frame is already plain. What I would like to do is to not count it in the pages numbering. For an usual frame it can be done by using the noframenumbering option but I don't know how to use it with the title frame. – GuillaumeM Jun 20 '13 at 07:00
