Flash Retiring

Apr 17, 2018

What are the plans for Articulate Storyline 2 moving forward once Flash is retired in 2020?  Will there be a way to publish HTML only without any flash files or will we be given an update, etc?

Hi Brent,

If you need to talk with our team about upgrading, they'll be happy to walk you through the options. Reach out to them here or email Sales@articulate.com

The changes we made in Storyline 3 and Articulate 360 were a major rewrite to our publishing engine and how we handle HTML5, so those changes will not be added to Storyline 2. 

If you're using Storyline 1, Storyline 2, or Studio '13 and you include HTML5 output when you publish, you can bypass the Flash output and launch the HTML5 course directly. Just link to the following file in your published output, depending on the app you used:
 

Storyline

story_html5.html

Presenter

presentation_html5.html

Quizmaker

quiz_html5.html

Engage

interaction_html5.html

And make sure your learners are using supported HTML5 browsers:
