Live Link in Presenter Output File

Apr 28, 2014

Hello 

I have added a hyperlink to my presentation, but when I publish my PPT the link is no longer live. 

However, the email address that displays before the hyperlink is. 

Can you please assist? 

Thanks!!

Hi Sarah!

First, can you tell me how you're viewing the published presentation, please? Are you viewing the published output files locally, or are you uploading to a web server or LMS?

If you're viewing your published files locally, this may be the problem. If you view a published Studio '13 or '09 presentation on your local hard drive or send it to someone else to view on their local hard drive, you'll encounter security restrictions from the computer, web browser, Flash Player, and network that'll cause various features of your content to fail.

To properly test your published content and share it with others, upload it to the environment for which it was published. Please review the article below for more information:

Tips for Managing Project Files

  • I suggest using SCORM Cloud for your course - it's a great place to test SCORM content.
  • Another option would be to use our Tempshare server. Just keep in mind that this server is only available for testing content - it is not officially supported by Articulate and all content will be removed automatically after 10 days.
  • You're always welcome to try out Articulate Online, as well - it's available for a free 30 day trial.

Let me know if you're already uploading your content before testing your hyperlinks. If that's the case, we may want to take a look at the project file.

Thanks!
