We have the latest SharePoint at our company. I can no longer upload published project to site assets and link to story file. I have tried as advised online to link to story.html, story.swf, story_html5.html, etc. These all result in download of the file and not running. I have tried embedding the link in Script Editor and Content Editor web parts. File 404 error or blank screen results.
Anyone know how I can run the project from SharePoint.
We wish to have reviewers access through SharePoint, run the course module and make their notes.
BTW, I also recommend that you publish for HTML5 only. Even having Flash as a backup could cause problems, because some browser settings are already prohibiting it by default.
I have been creating the aspx file and uploading to SharePoint which up until recently has worked fine. However recently when turning off the flash add-in in the IE browser I found that the aspx file no longer worked and required download to work rather than just opening as before. I only have Storyline 2 and not Storyline 3 so I cannot see any options to publish without having Flash as backup. Is there anyway i can do this in storyline 2 or is this option only available in 3? or do you know of another solution?
You need to upgrade to Storyline 3 (or 360) to be able to publish HTML5 only, i.e., without any Flash. You should do that because Flash won't be supported after Dec. 2020, and many browsers already restrict it by default. Plus, HTML5 has evolved a bit since Storyline 2. Storyline 3 & 360 provide a more stable HTML5 experience.
Hi Judy,
Apologies for not replying sooner. Yes I have taken a look at upgrading. I was looking to upgrade from Storyline 2 to 3 but I can no longer see Storyline 3 - only 360? Im not sure I need all the features in 360. Is 360 the only available product now? To put a business case together for upgrading I have to identify the price for upgrade but I cant find this anywhere. Does anyone have any ideas where to go for upgrade pricing?
Judy, I'm interjecting here rather than starting a new thread. I published to Web and wanted to move to sharepoint, which all seems to be working as it should - the window seems to launch (doesn't try to download, so not the aspx problem) it even seems the correct background color, etc) but there is nothing there - no program. I've noticed that when i publish, there is no "slides" in the "slides" folder of the "story content" folder. Is this normal now? (no slides)? can you advise how to fix either the export/publish to my hard drive (to get slides) or the move to sharepoint (i'm just dragging the folder and sub folders/files in). thanks.
I have the same issue as Peter. Background color of story_html5.html shows in the SharePoint page but no content, just the spinning circle of death. Changing extensions to ASPX just prompts for a Save As download. Any solutions to this? Using SharePoint 365 Online. Please help!

Hi, Everett,
It's my understanding that, for the latest SharePoint (e.g., SharePoint Online), you need to change some file extensions (including the story.html) from .html to .aspx. See details in the replies to this post: https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/storyline-course-published-and-housed-on-sharepoint-please-help
