I have written a simple script to create some PowerPoint sheets based on an Excel dataset. For the original script see Picture1. I noticed that the code becomes very unreadable if you add to many objects to one PowerPoint sheet. That's why I wanted to write a function of this part of the code. One of the things I tried is shown in Picture 2 (I know this code won't work). The problem is that the function doesn't recognize ph_with. Is there anyway to solve this problem?

Thank you!

AddContent <- function(content, label, ...){
  ph_with(value = content, location = ph_location_label(ph_label = label))}

AddContent(company_name, Customername)

Error in UseMethod("ph_with", value) : no applicable method for 'ph_with' applied to an object of class "rpptx"

    You should define instead `AddContent <- function(x, content, label, ...){ph_with(x, value = content, location = ph_location_label(ph_label = label))}`. x is the document provided by read_pptx – David Gohel Sep 30 '22 at 13:18
