Through research here, it seems that essay questions are problematic in some learning management systems. Many responses/suggestions include using scorm 4v3 files rather than 1.2. In my situation, I am using Storyline 3 and a scorm 4v3 file to the LMS, but when I want to REVISIT the lesson in the LMS after completion (when the lesson has an essay type question), the lesson will not play (only get the throbber). When I remove the essay question, the lesson replays. Suggestions? I'd hate to have to remove all those types or convert all those types of questions in our already enormous lesson library.
To save the data in the Los you need to assign it to a results slide and publish with tracking set to the results slide, that will pass the data into the LMS. Have you tried testing this in scormclound? You may need to reset the slide to initial state
I do have the slides set to reset to initial state, but in Player options
"always resume" upon restart.
We don't need to track the results of these particular quizzes (we do have
exams that the score is tracked, but these are more for the learner to
review rather than pass/fail, so they have unlimited attempts. However, we
do need them to replay! I haven't yet tested anything in Scormcloud, I'm
only testing it on our LMS for now.
FYI-this file doesn't have .srt files in it, but we do use these in our lessons as well. Not sure if you'd need to know this (probably irrelevant). Thanks!

Also, we don't need to record the data the user types in, if that makes a difference.

Scormcloud will rule out an issue with your LMS.
Can you post a sample? I have a bit of time today that i could have a look at it.
Certainly. Let me set one up quickly as I had already removed those
problematic quizzes. Thank you!!
Phil,
scorm zip file okay? Just attach here? Thanks.

I tested that in Scormcloud and the question worked and resumed fine. Looks like it maybe an issue in your LMS
Thanks for your help. Well have to do some more digging.
Which LMS do you use?
