Sharing Storyline files for review purposes only
Dec 06, 2018
Hello,
Does anyone out there use Tempshare? http://tempshare.articulate.com/
"An Articulate engineer cooked up Tempshare over a weekend to make it easier for you to test Articulate content on your iPad.
You simply drag your project to Tempshare and it’s saved to a web server. Tempshare generates a non-guessable URL to your project that you can then access from your iPad. Content is hidden from search engine indexing so it stays private while you test.
Keep in mind that Tempshare is not an official or supported Articulate product. It’s just a helpful tool we’ve made available to folks who need it. Please use Tempshare for testing purposes only, as we delete content 10 days after it’s posted."
I have been using this site to share our Storyline files to our stakeholders who need to review content before it goes up on our LMS. This is a great site, quick, easy and the web link only lasts 10 days. The problem is that it is a bit temperamental, and has not been publishing files for over a week now.
Are there any other solutions on how to share files? We do not have access to drop box (from reading previous like articles).

Hi Angela,
I still use Tempshare occasionally for a quick sharing option. What trouble are you running into?
Also, can you let me know what version of Storyline you're publishing with, the browser you're accessing Tempshare through, and how big your file is?
Hi Ashley,
Thank you for your reply.
Error message: Sorry, we were unable to publish this file.
I am using Storyline 360.
I am using Chrome and Explore - not working in either
My zip file is 21,792 KB
Thank you
Hi Angela,
Did you publish the Storyline 360 for HTML5 only? Tempshare requires Flash in the output so if you published with HTML5 only that would explain it.
If you published with the Flash included, could I take a look at your published output zip folder?
Yes, it only has the HTLM5 option when I publish to either Web or LMS.
How do I get Flash included?
Hi Angela
it is one of the publish options
Click the Formats and a dialog box will display. Move the slider to choose the publish option you want
Okay. This is my Window when I publish. Where is the Format option?
I just read that if the Play Style is Classic, Flash is an option as a format, but if the Player Style is Modern, only HRML5 comes up as the format when going to publish.
However I still cannot find the option to the dialogue box with the slider.
Thank you
It doesn't have an underline but click the HTML5 item (which is a link) and the dialog box will popup
This isn't linked for me? It is because I have Modern Player Style on.
I can link to all the others (Player, Quality, Publish, Tracking) - but not HTML5 only
I just tested changing my file to Classic Player Style, and when I went to publish, the HTML was linked and the slider dialogue box came up. But I can see that your Player Style is Modern...
Do I need to see if Flash is installed on my PC?
You're right - the Modern Player only publishes to HTML5, the Classic player allows you to select any of the options in the dialog box including flash.
Any apps that require flash should alert you via a popup to say 'flash required' enable / allow flash and you should be able to click it to proceed.
Tempshare does not come up with such a pop-up. It looks like we're going to have to use the Classic Player Style just for Tempshare purposes.
Thank you very much for all the assistance.
So glad that Wendy was able to work through that with you Angela and you identified a solution that could work for you :)
The Modern Player and Tempshare have gotten me a time or two as well.
