I have a free trial of Storyline. I want to publish my first course to the web, so that others can see and complete the course. As an alternative, I am willing to publish it to a file, which I can submit to my professor. So far, I can't seem to get the course off my computer and onto hers. Not even if i email her the zip file of it.
To make it available on the web, you must have access to a web server where you can post things Scormcloud's free posting option is one possibility. Publish to the web, then upload the folder. It will have the name of your project, followed by " - Storyline output". After you upload it, give your viewers the URL (link) to the story.html or story.html5 file that is inside the folder.
Alternatively, you can publish to CD, and send them the resulting files. Instruct them to double-click the Launch_Story.exe file.
Whatever you do, you must publish it first, and send the published version. It may be possible that the final version is too larger to send in an email, in which case, you need to publish to CD, saving it on a flash drive, and give her that.
Anyway you do it, if you send it to your professor as a .zip file, please know that she must unzip it before she can view it. Modern computers will allow you to look inside a zip file, and even open files without zipping them, but if you try it with a published Storyline file, it will not work.
