Yes, I have attached a certificate demo zip with instructions:
The zip contains everything you need to create a certificate with a name on and date. You just need to change the images for your own.
1. Examine the files in the story output folder, you see files refering to 'certificate'.
2. Click on the printcertificate.html file. Hey a certificate, presented to Unknown???
3. Click on the The Launch_Story.exe. The story was published for CD to show the javascript working on a local PC and not a server, as normally expected. This is because if you test html5 locally javascript won't run.
4. In the presentation, type your name and click Continue. Your name should appear. Click on the button to view the certificaste, hey your name appears now.
5. Go back to folders in the zip and see that you have the certificate_demo.story file. You can publish for the web yourself but remember to copy all of the files in the 'certificate files needed' folder as SL deletes what existed before.
I truly believe having the option to generate a certificate is strongly needed in Storyline 2 and the work-arounds aren't very effective. I'm hoping that someday soon the ability to generate a certificate is added to Storyline 2.
I agree with Rachel. So many people seem to need it (plus a pulse option on animations!). The example certificate works wonderfully. Thanks so much to Bruce.
I totally agree with Rachel. I have tried several different ways but none are really suitable. Come on Articulate incorporate the ability to generate certificates.
Thanks Bruce for assisting Rachel here. As Leslie shared above, it's not something we currently support, so if it's a feature you'd like to see in future versions you'll want to share your thoughts in the form of a feature request.
Is there a way to put this certificate demo into Rise? You have to publish to review 360 to add a storyline block. Is there another way to add a storyline zip file to Rise?
You need to add the necessary files to the zip file after you've published?
Thanks Leslie, I actually just came across that! Only been using rise for a few weeks but have used moodle and totara for a few years. The responsive output of Rise is a great usable solution, but now I need to work with all the limitations.
The iframe will allow me to do pretty much anything I want.
Thanks Leslie, I put an iframe link to a file.php page and it added the secure http"s" to my path which broke it. Am I correct in assuming that because it is php it needs to be a secure page?
So that means you couldn't link to a wordpress page unless it is secured?

Hi Chris,
I know there was another recent thread about a similar need here.
Hope that helps!

Thanks Bruce for sharing that here with the directions!

Hi Rachel!
Please feel free to share your thoughts with our product development team here.

Just happy you can make use of it and understand my instructions.

Hi Gerry,
Before we had Storyline Blocks, we had embedded Storyline files :)
You can host your Storyline 360 course on the web and use this basic iFrame code in the URL/Embed lesson or Embed Block type:
<iframe src="Insert Your URL to the story.html Here"></iframe>
The information that Bruce shared above is used for modifying the zipped published output, which is not something supported by Articulate.

take care...

I linked to a secure page and it worked...
Thanks for the update, Gerry. Glad you were able to identify a solution that works well for you.
