Renumber Slides

Hi Alicia,

Even if you've added a trigger to adjust a variable - Slide122complete - the trigger should still work as long as the adjustment is still occurring on that slide and the variable is present and accessible. The number that you titled your variable does not have any impact on how the slide itself is numbered within Storyline. 

If you're numbering is off within the menu, you can renumber the menu by resetting it from the story as described in this tutorial - and remove the slide numbers there all together. 

Tracy,

Thanks for the video! It helped quite a bit and I was able to get the order in the menu fixed for my learners.

Glad that this thread is still assisting users Duane :) Thanks for sharing.

This issue needs to get corrected. Those numbers are the slide IDs that are also reported to the LMS by the SCORM standard.

Thanks

Hi Oscar! Are you having an issue that we need to take a look at? If you have moved your slides around and they are now 'out of order', you can certainly reset the menu.

If you make changes to your menu and then decide that you want to reset the menu back to its original state, click Reset from story below the menu.

Here is our tutorial. Walt explains it pretty well here as well.

This is exactly the situation that I'm in. We are still using storyboards for client review. With Articulate 360 that situation goes away. But for now, very confusing for the client as they would like to see the natural flow of their project.

Hi Kairas,

This discussion is a bit older, but if you need help with something just let us know!  

Hello,

This thread is old but I came upon it when I was looking for a solution to the same problem. However, I also stumbled upon a solution on my own (because I didn't want to do the cut and paste process). For what it's worth, I would like to share it here.

To fix the slide numbering in the menu, do the following:

1. Organize your slides according to how to how they need to be organized (either within the scene or in Story view). 
2. Open the Player, click Menu,  click the gear icon (Additional Options) at the bottom, uncheck the 'Number entries in the menu automatically'. Then, check it again. Each time you have to re-organize your slides, you have to uncheck and check this box.
3. Preview your course (or scene). Click the Menu tab and you will find that it will show your slides or topics with the correct numbering. Do not mind the Menu in the Player because that will never show the correct numbering (and I don't know why). To me, I don't mind the menu in my player not showing the correct numbering for as long as what the learner will see in the menu tab is the correct numbering.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Tina - always good to have an updated answer here so I appreciate you sharing.

Hi Adena

I know your post is old, but I wanted to thank you. I have a simple project where, after the main content, users can choose to view three how-to videos or just exit. Because of the slide order the menu didn't make any sense; your steps were exactly what I needed!

That's great news Maryanne :) Thanks for chiming in to share that this thread was able to help you as well.

Hi Maryanne,

You bet! Great to hear that it was useful to someone else.

Cheers!

Hi, almost 5 years, did anyone find solution for this?

Hi Henat,

Storyline has yet to add a feature where you can insert a slide number so you'll want to use one of the methods mentioned earlier. 

...seriously? this hasn't been addressed?

I agree with Kyle. When I preview my project, the slides come as they're supposed to but they way they're listed on the viewer on the side is completely out of whack and I can't seem to make it go in logical or sequential order. And yes, I have a whack of this or that interactions.

It's ridiculous that this hasn't been addressed. 8 years and counting?
