Branching off for specific viewers only
Oct 08, 2021
Hi,
Is there a way to create a branched link where certain groups of people only would link to the pages they need and still continue through the course as the other larger group. Or can this be done within or better at the end of the course. So the larger group would get to the end and exit and the specific group would continue and would that be done through a link which would take them to the pages only they need and then take them to a separate quiz that contains what the large group has to complete along with additional questions for the pages only they had to continue viewing.
Sorry, I hope this makes sense.
Thanks,
Dani

Hi Dani,
You can accomplish this in multiple ways, but the way I've always made a course "adaptable" to various audiences, is using variables to control everything.
For instance, let's say you have a course containing content for both a U.S. audience, and different content for Canada.
Try to use the least amount of variables, so in this case I create a text variable named "location" that is initially set to blank. This is easier to manage than creating 2 variables (e.g., US = true, CA = false).
Early in the course, usually right after the title screen/page, I create 2 buttons, each with a trigger that is told to change the "location" variable to "US" or "CA" depending which is clicked. I would also add a timeline trigger to disable the Next button until something is clicked.
Throughout your course now, you can refer to this variable to control many things.
I hope that gets your creative juices flowing. If you need more specifics, you can share your file here.
Thank you Scott.
I will review this.
