When we publish our storyline presentation it is losing things. We have custom next buttons that pop up at appropriate times and it deletes them in odd places every time we publish. Sometimes it loses pictures. They are there before publishing but gone after. Any suggestions?
They are simple clip art or jpg's. The next buttons are storyline buttons and are all set up to show until end once they pop up but on some slides they don't even pop up once published.
I'm publishing in HTML 5 and viewing it on a PC. I haven't even uploaded it to the LMS yet i'm just previewing it on my computer before upload.
The content is all present before publishing in the preview but once published it disappears.
Are you previewing the course or viewing the published version from your local drive? If doing the latter, you'll want to test within the intended environment as described here. Testing it locally could cause you to encounter security restrictions or cause elements of your content to fail.
Also, if you're only viewing the HTML5 content, you'll want to view it within one of the browser documented here.

Hi Melanie,
Could you tell us a little more about the issues you're experiencing...
What format are the disappearing graphics in ? (png, gif etc)
What publishing settings are you using? (HTML5 etc)
How are you viewing the course? (PC, Ipad etc)
Where does the course currently sit? (LMS, server etc)
Hopefully this should give us enough info to start troubleshooting
Check to be sure none of those objects have exit animations. Also check to be sure each of them has the timing set to Show Until End.

Hi Melanie,
Sounds like you might be better off submitting a support case so the techy guys can take a look.
You could also try importing the whole course into a new SL file incase the original one has become corrupted somehow or you could try repairing SL
Sorry I can't be of any further help
