Resume

Hi John!

Yes, you can definitely disable this option, if you'd like.

To do so, click on "Player" and "Other". In the section labeled "Resume" you can choose the option to "Never Resume" if you don't want this option to appear at any time.

I hope this helps!

Hey John!

Yup, just change your resume setting to Never. This causes your course to always open at the beginning of the course, regardless of whether the learner already completed part of the course previously, and users won't see a prompt.

Here's more

Thanks...I must have looked right passed that option about 50 times....

No problem, John! 

Hidden in plain sight :) 

Hope you have a great day,

Christine

Hello, I have a follow-up question. I have a course that is published to the web, not an LMS. I'd like to turn off the resume prompt, and I now know how, thanks to this thread. I'd like to avoid replacing every file on the website just to update this setting.

Does one individual file in the course folder hold the code for this? That is, is there an .xml file in there somewhere where some variable along the lines of prompt_for_resume="TRUE" gets set to prompt_for_resume="FALSE"? (note: I invented that variable. Don't know what the real one is.)

Thanks!

Hi Greg! I saw where you reached out over here too. Hopefully someone in the community will be able to pop in and assist you with this request.

Thanks for your replies, Leslie. I'll try to keep this all in this thread, where there's more helpful information.

To be clear, I'm not out to modify the file manually. I'll change the setting and republish the course, but then I'd like to be able to simply replace the single (I assume) changed file on our web server rather than having to delete and reupload all 300ish files in their subfolders.

Is that possible? Thanks again!

I'm sure it's possible Greg, but not something I would be able to assist with. Hopefully someone in the community would be able to pop in and help, otherwise, I would advise to update, republish and re-upload the content.
