Question Imports
Feb 09, 2021
I really enjoy the question import feature, specifically using .txt files.
I have a few features I would like to request that I feel would make it even more powerful and productive:
- The ability to label/title question slides using some syntax housed in the import file. In Moodle/GIFT format you can title questions by surround them with double colons:
::Question 1::
Who is buried in grants tomb?
=No one
~Grant
~Grant's family
~Someone other than Grant
Maybe Articulate Storyline could do the same for .txt files, and add a column for the Excel imports? - The ability to select question level feedback rather than choice-level feedback would be nice. Here is a link from a few years back with a similar request:
https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/importing-questions-from-excel-with-question-level-feedback - I wish the formatting would remain as I have it set in the Feedback master, rather than aligning the text to the left, overflowing instead of wrapping the text, increasing font size, or using Articulate font instead of the font I have pre-set in the Feedback master.
Here is a related link regarding formatting issues when importing questions:

Thanks for taking the time to read this, and please let me know if you have any questions.
All the best,
Ben.

It's best to use those to ensure your requests and issues are seen by the staff. (I keep them bookmarked.)
I would also second #2 on this list. I'm struggling from the same problem. I submitted the feature request
Thanks Judy,
I just copied the url from this post to those feature requests. Feel free to pass them on next time on my behalf.
Bump! People still want this! Pretty please! (yeah, I am going to go fill out the feature request form next)
I also use the TXT import feature. Please allow the import file to also indicate our preference by question for the following:
