Resume button not bringing learners back to the correct assessment question in LMS

Nov 23, 2021

Hi, 

We are experiencing an issue with the Resume button on one of our modules in our LMS. 

When a learner leaves and then returns to continue with content, the Resume button takes them to the correct place. 

However, when they are in the middle of an assessment, leave and come back, they are not returned to the correct question. 

Currently, are transitioning from Articulate Online to a new LMS - the Resume button behaves correctly in Articulate Online  - but not in the new LMS. 

What am I missing? I uploaded the SCORM file to SCORM Cloud and it still wasn't working the way it should. 

I can attach the file if required. 

Help... and Thanks in advance :)

Hi, Rebeca, and welcome to E-Learning Heroes! ✨

Thank you for reaching out!

Since the issue can be reproduced in SCORM Cloud, it might be a good idea if you can share the .story file either here or privately through a case, so our team can help troubleshoot.

Did you publish it as SCORM 1.2? If so, I'd also suggest trying SCORM 2004 4th edition, as this could be related to the data limits of SCORM 1.2.

Rebecca,

Following this thread. If I'm not mistaken, suspend data in SCORM 1.2 is about 4,096 characters versus ~64,000 characters in SCORM 2004, 4th Edition.  It's this suspend_data element in Storyline that tells the LMS where you left the course.

Just curious, is this happening on multiple modules or on just one module. If it is just one module, is this module a very large one? A while back I had a similar problem with a module that had several videos in it. By republishing that module to SCORM 2004, I was able to resolve my problem. Hope it works for you too!

Hi Richard, 

Thank you so much for your reply. It seems to be happening to all the courses - I'm testing one in particular (I've republished it SCORM 2004, 4th Edition) but now when I try to upload it to our LMS it doesn't seem to be working. 

So I'll need to log a call with them to see why I can't upload the SCORM 2004, 4th Edition file. 

Thanks again for your help.
