Storyline Presentation on Google Sites

I was finally able to get this to work by using Github. I created a free account and uploaded the whole folder rendered when publishing my Storyline project for web access. The only change I made was to change the story.html file to index.html. First, I followed Github's tutorial on creating a repository. It asks that you name it something generic, but I ended up having to change it later. So, make sure to follow that naming convention in the hosting directly from repository tutorial. Step one on the hosting tutorial is VERY important; it won't work if the naming convention is not followed. Once I figured that out, I copied the link it provided me something like http://username.github.io.

I then inserted an iframe gadget to my Google Site page and used the Github url. I previewed it both on Chrome and Firefox and it works!

Thanks for popping in to share the details with the community Samantha :)

Everything was looking good up until one of my video files was too big. 

I'm as frustrated as I've ever been in Story Line 2 trying to get this published for a client on a Samsung Galaxy View tablet. Don't have a web site and have almost no experience playing with FTP. Fought with Screencast and Dropbox. I'm at wits end.

On a mobile platform? 

Not sure if your tablet has anything to do with it since I used my PC, and my FTP experience is nonexistent. However, I did get an error while trying to upload all the Storyline files, so I uploaded one of the folders and the single files then OK'd out of the screen. Went back to the upload option and uploaded the mobile folder alone. It took it and seems to work well. Try uploading it alone.

Hi Ken,

I'm sorry that you're running into some roadblocks with this - Google Drive and Dropbox changed the way that they were allowing for the hosting of .html files, and both have discontinued that as a service. We've been recommended Amazon S3 for folks to continue using, and it is described how to upload here.

You'll also want to confirm that the tablet you're accessing it from meets the system requirements here and that when you go to publish for web you're selecting to include the HTML5 output. 

You rock girl. :)

That being said, that is insanely complicated to publish. Still, now that have have the S3 account set up and the cloudberry account as well it'll be a lot less complicated in the future. I hoping the big announcement will simplify this process for mobile devices.

Thanks so much. :) BTW, my mobile device processor is 1.6mHz and it seems to run the program without any problems. Hover state is so so, but it works.

Definitely a lot of steps to set it up - but hopefully much less complicated going forward. 

Glad to hear it's all working well on the mobile device as well! 

I'm using Samsung's 18.4" Galaxy View. Thing is a beast, but the published output uses a higher percentage of the screen than the PC version so despite being mobile it actually outputs a larger published output than my PC version. Not quit as crisp graphically, but this project is on highly technical hospital equipment and it's theory of operation so it works well. Thanks again.

Ah, thanks Ken for that info - I haven't seen the Galaxy view or a lot of mention here, but that's good information to have.

Thank you for this David. The File Cabinet is not available in the new Google Sites. Do you know of a way in which content from Storyline can be published on the new Google Sites please?

Hello Angel,

This thread is a bit dated and I'm not sure that David is still subscribed here. You are certainly welcome to reach out to the user directly via the 'Contact Me' option on the user profile if you do not hear back soon.

Otherwise, hopefully some other members of the community will be able to chime in and share how they are using Google to help you out here.

Thank you Leslie.
