Submit not appearing
Aug 27, 2015
I've created a course quiz in storyline using a template. I added quiz questions. On the first quiz slide, the slide appears but the submit button does not appear. If I click on the little 'x' in the corner, it returns me back to the main screen. However, in the preview mode, when I am on this first page, and I select the 2nd quiz page, the submit button appears and I can proceed with the rest of the quiz along with the results page just fine. Why isn't 1st page working and advancing to the rest of the quiz? Help!!!! I'm not very good with articulate yet and so any advice would help!

Hi Anita and welcome to E-Learning Heroes!
Without seeing what you are working with, it is typically hard to assist with specific questions like this.
If you could attach your .story file here for us to take a look at, that would be helpful.
OK, So not sure how to attach the file...but here's some screen shots and the explanation I took on word...
Hi Anita!
For the ones where you cannot see/access the submit button are you reaching those slides via trigger to lightbox slide? That's what it looks like.
If you utilize the Add Attachment option in your reply, just like you did to attach the word document, and navigate to the .story project file that you are working on to attach.
Here's the file...I'm on a remote computer and for some reason I can't access.
I took out the trigger and that didn't work.
Honestly there's no way for me to go past the first slide. The only way I can do that is if I manually select to advance when I'm in the preview mode. Only at that point can I see the submit.
Hi Anita,
Thanks for coming back to this thread - that is the published output file, and we'll need to see the .story file which is the file prior to publishing. You mentioned you're on a remote computer and I did want to also point out that you'll want to ensure you're working on local project files, as working off a network drive/shared drive could cause issues within the file.
I've had no issues with other courses. I"ve tried everything...not sure what I'm missing.
Hi Anita,
Working off a network drive is erratic, so other courses may have worked just fine - but it's still not a recommended method for working on courses. If you're able to visit the forum thread and upload the .story file for us to take a look at?
Unfortunately, I don't have a choice but to work from a remote computer. However, the good news is I"ve figured it out. It was the lightbox. Initially I had the link to the quiz straight from the lightbox and that wasn't working. Then I created another "take the quiz" slide that the lightbox went to first and then the actual quiz followed, but that still didn't work. But I took the lighthouse out and just used a button and that worked just fine! Thank you!
Thanks for that update Anita! If you're working remotely, can you download the file to your local drive to be able to work on it locally before uploading back to the server/network?
