I've created a very simple storyline course to test on an LMS. The course should return a status of completed and bookmark. The status change is working just fine but the course is not bookmarking. I've checked the values on the LMS and CMI.suspend_data is not being set. Is there a particular setting within storyline I need to pay attention to to include bookmarking? I've been using cloud.scorm.com for LMS testing.
I've searched around on the forms and have found a few posts about bookmarking but those posts relate to running out of room in the suspend data field. In this case it's simply not storing any data whatsoever within the field. Perhaps if I have missed the post that explains this issue if so could you please direct me to that link.
I'm not sure I fully understand your question - but if you're publishing for use in an LMS and each user needs to log in, they'll resume to where they left off or start from the beginning if it's their first visit.
In a environment where the computer is shared by multiple users, I am hoping Storyline is storing the bookmark and location of the user in the suspend data element. in the LMS. What I am worried about is when it uses a local cookie. If it uses something local to the machine then it creates a problem in a shared pc environment. One user picks up where the last user finished. I don't think Storyline does this because it has the ignore Flash cookie option, but I have yet to test it fully.
Thanks for clarifying. If your LMS supports bookmarking, mark the box labeled When running in LMS, ignore Flash cookie. The LMS will control resume behavior in this scenario.

How does this behave when a computer is shared by multiple users?
