Step-by-Step Guide on Converting from Flash to HTML 5 with Articulate

Apr 22, 2020

Hello,

Does anyone have a guide or process flow which outlines the step-by-step process of converting existing eLearning with Adobe Flash that was created in Storyline 2 to HTML 5?

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

Happy Thursday and good question, Andrew!

Storyline 2: Converting Flash to HTML5

Courses published in Storyline 2 will continue to work if the Include HTML5 output is included in the Publish settings. Web browsers will simply ignore the Flash content and display the HTML5 version instead.

However, HTML5 output from this legacy app only works in Chrome and Safari. It won't work reliably in other browsers.

Here's a great resource for everything you need to know about Flash's end:

Next Steps

We recommend to upgrade to Storyline 3 or Articulate 360 as these apps don't have any Flash dependencies and their HTML5 output works in all major browsers.

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

Thank you for opening a support case with our engineers! I see you worked with Matthew, who explained the steps to upgrade as long as you have access to the source file. Unfortunately, published courses can't be edited or reverse-engineered.

Please reach out to Matthew through the case if you have additional questions.
