I've scoured the tutorials, but haven't found information on controlling whether a web-accessed course launches immediately or must be initiated by the learner. The way I've been publishing my course, it starts as soon as you access the URL.
Just to clarify, the first slide appears immediately and then jumps to the next slide? If so, it's likely something that we'd need to take a look at. Can you create a Presenter package and share the files here with us?
The audio and animations on the very first slide begin immediately. The user does have to click to advance to the second slide. I would like for the user to have to initiate beginning the course on the first slide. I created a package, but keep getting an error message when I try to upload the zip file.
The file may be too large to upload here (it's around a 20 mb) limit. I don't believe there is a way to stop the audio and animations on the first slide from beginning right when the course is open, but what about adding a slide before that which is essentially a title slide or directions the user to click next to start the course?

Hi Kristina!
You can control the behavior of your slides and make all of them advance by user via Slide Properties.
My first slide is set to advance by user in Slide Properties, but it still starts immediately. I'm not sure what else to try.

Thats a good idea. Thanks!
